  • The phishing attack is a malicious emerging threat on the internet where the hackers try to access the user credentials such as login information or Internet banking details through pirated websites. Using that information, they get into the original website and try to modify or steal the information. The problem with traditional defense systems like firewalls is that they can only stop certain types of attacks because they rely on a fixed set of principles to do so. As a result, the model needs a client-side defense mechanism that can learn potential attack vectors to detect and prevent not only the known but also unknown types of assault. Feature selection plays a key role in machine learning by selecting only the required features by eliminating the irrelevant ones from the real-time dataset. The proposed model uses Hyperparameter Optimized Artificial Neural Networks (H-ANN) combined with a Hybrid Firefly and Grey Wolf Optimization algorithm (H-FFGWO) to detect and block phishing websites in Internet of Things(IoT) Applications. In this paper, the H-FFGWO is used for the feature selection from phishing datasets ISCX-URL, Open Phish, UCI machine-learning repository, Mendeley website dataset and Phish tank. The results showed that the proposed model had an accuracy of 98.07%, a recall of 98.04%, a precision of 98.43%, and an F1-Score of 98.24%.

  • IoT can be connected through a single network not only objects which can be connected to existing internet but also objects which has communication capability. This IoT environment will be a huge change to the existing communication paradigm. However, the big security problem must be solved in order to develop further IoT. Security mechanisms reflecting these characteristics should be applied because devices participating in the IoT have low processing ability and low power. In addition, devices which perform abnormal behaviors between objects should be also detected. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed D-IDS technique for efficient detection of malicious attack nodes between devices participating in the IoT. The proposed technique performs the central detection and distribution detection to improve the performance of attack detection. The central detection monitors the entire network traffic at the boundary router using SVM technique and detects abnormal behavior. And the distribution detection combines RSSI value and reliability of node and detects Sybil attack node. The performance of attack detection against malicious nodes is improved through the attack detection process. The superiority of the proposed technique can be verified by experiments.

  • ARIA is an involutory SPN block cipher. Its block size is 128-bit and the master key sizes are 128/192/256-bit, respectively. Accordingly, they are called ARIA-128/192/256. As we all know, ARIA is a Korean Standard block cipher nowadays. This paper focuses on the security of ARIA against impossible differential attack. We firstly construct a new 4-round impossible differential of ARIA. Furthermore, based on this impossible differential, a new 7-round impossible differential attack on ARIA-256 is proposed in our paper. This attack needs 2118 chosen plaintexts and 2210 7-round encryptions. Comparing with the previous best result, we improve both the data complexity and time complexity. To our knowledge, it is the best impossible differential attack on ARIA-256 so far.

  • VoIP service is the transmission of voice data using SIP protocol on an IP-based network. The SIP protocol has many advantages, such as providing IP-based voice communication and multimedia service with low communication cost. Therefore, the SIP protocol disseminated quickly. However, SIP protocol exposes new forms of vulnerabilities to malicious attacks, such as message flooding attack. It also incurs threats from many existing vulnerabilities as occurs for IP-based protocol. In this paper, we propose a new virtual proxy to cooperate with the existing Proxy Server to provide state monitoring and detect SIP message flooding attack with IP/MAC authentication. Based on a proposed virtual proxy, the proposed system enhances SIP attack detection performance with minimal latency of SIP packet transmission.

  • Internet banking is widely used in our life with the development of the internet. At the same time, phishing attacks to internet banking have been increased by using malicious object to make unfair profit. People using internet banking service in Korea is required to install security modules such as anti-virus and keyboard protection. However phishing attack technique has been progressed and the advanced technique such as memory hacking defeats the security module of internet banking service. In this paper, we describe internet banking security modules provided by Korean internet banks and analyze how keyboard encryption module works. And we propose an attack to manipulate account transfer information using javascript. Although keyboard protection module provides two functions that protect leakage and manipulation of account transfer information submitted by users against the malicious program of hackers. Our proposed technique can manipulate the account transfer information and result html pages.

  • In proportion to the rapid increase in the number of Web users, web attack techniques are also getting more sophisticated. Therefore, we need not only to detect Web attack based on the log analysis but also to extract web attack events from audit information such as Web firewall, Web IDS and system logs for detecting abnormal Web behaviors. In this paper, web attack detection system was designed and implemented based on integrated web audit data for detecting diverse web attack by generating integrated log information generated from W3C form of IIS log and web firewall/IDS log. The proposed system analyzes multiple web sessions and determines its correlation between the sessions and web attack efficiently. Therefore, proposed system has advantages on extracting the latest web attack events efficiently by designing and implementing the multiple web session and log correlation analysis actively.

  • The hash function RIPEMD-160 is a worldwide ISO/IEC standard and the hash function HAS-160 is the Korean hash standard and is widely used in Korea. On the basis of differential meet-in-the-middle attack and biclique technique, a preimage attack on 34-step RIPEMD-160 with message padding and a pseudo-preimage attack on 71-step HAS-160 without message padding are proposed. The former is the first preimage attack from the first step, the latter increases the best pseudo-preimage attack from the first step by 5 steps. Furthermore, we locate the linear spaces in another message words and exchange the bicliques construction process and the mask vector search process. A preimage attack on 35-step RIPEMD-160 and a preimage attack on 71-step HAS-160 are presented. Both of the attacks are from the intermediate step and satisfy the message padding. They improve the best preimage attacks from the intermediate step on step-reduced RIPEMD-160 and HAS-160 by 4 and 3 steps respectively. As far as we know, they are the best preimage and pseudo-preimage attacks on step-reduced RIPEMD-160 and HAS-160 respectively in terms of number of steps.

  • Providing security has been always on priority in all areas of computing and communication, and for the systems that are low on computing power, implementing appropriate and efficient security mechanism has been a continuous challenge for the researchers. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system is such an environment, which requires the design and implementation of efficient security mechanism. Earlier, the security protocols for RFID based on hash functions and symmetric key cryptography have been proposed. But, due to high strength and requirement of less key size in elliptic curve cryptography, the focus of researchers has been on designing efficient security protocol for RFID based on elliptic curves. In this paper, an efficient elliptic curve signcryption based security protocol for RFID has been proposed, which provides mutual authentication, confidentiality, non-repudiation, integrity, availability, forward security, anonymity, and scalability. Moreover, the proposed protocol successfully provides resistance from replay attack, impersonation attack, location tracking attack, de-synchronization attack, denial of service attack, man-in-the-middle attack, cloning attack, and key-compromise attack. Results have revealed that the proposed protocol is efficient than the other related protocols as it takes less computational time and storage cost, especially for the tag, making it ideal to be used for RFID systems.

  • We propose a new Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) defense mechanism that protects http web servers from application-level DDoS attacks based on the two methodologies: whitelist-based admission control and busy period-based attack flow detection. The attack flow detection mechanism detects attach flows based on the symptom or stress at the server, since it is getting more difficult to identify bad flows only based on the incoming traffic patterns. The stress is measured by the time interval during which a given client makes the server busy, referred to as a client-induced server busy period (CSBP). We also need to protect the servers from a sudden surge of attack flows even before the malicious flows are identified by the attack flow detection mechanism. Thus, we use whitelist-based admission control mechanism additionally to control the load on the servers. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme via simulation and experiment. The simulation results show that our defense system can mitigate DDoS attacks effectively even under a large number of attack flows, on the order of thousands, and the experiment results show that our defense system deployed on a linux machine is sufficiently lightweight to handle packets arriving at a rate close to the link rate.
