Besides the passwords have low complexity, they can easily be revealed by the shoulder-surfing attack when they are inputted through the input devices such like keyboard. To overcome these problems, many new authentication schemes, which change the user secret different form or let users input their secrets through the more complex manners, have been suggested, but it is still hard to find the balanced point between usability and security. In this paper, we introduce a new authentication scheme that use the traditional alpha-numeric password as user secret based on operation of them on matrix. We show the security strength of our proposal through the analyses in the various aspects and confirm the difficulty that users feel from our proposal through the user study.

Presently in 2011, there are countless attacking tools oriented to invading security on the internet. And most of the tools are possible to conduct the actual invasion. Also, as the program sources attacking the weaknesses of PS3 were released in 2010 and also various sources for attacking agents and attacking tools such as Stuxnet Source Code were released in 2011, the part for defense has the greatest burden; however, it can be also a chance for the defensive part to suggest and develop methods to defense identical or similar patterned attacking by analyzing attacking sources. As a way to cope with such attacking, this study divides the network areas targeted for attack based on load balancing by the approach gateways and communication lines according to the defensive policies by attacking types and also suggests methods to multiply communication lines. The result of this paper will be provided as practical data to realize defensive policies based on high hardware performances through enhancing the price competitiveness of hardware infrastructure with 2010 as a start.

Recently, the Internet and networks are regarded as essential infrastructures that constitute society, and security threats have been constantly increased. However, the network switch that actually transmits packets in the network can cope with security threats only through firewall or network access control based on fixed rules, so the effective defense for the security threats is extremely limited in the network itself and not actively responding as well. In this paper, we propose an in-network security framework using the high-level data plane programming language, P4 (Programming Protocol-independent Packet Processor), to deal with DDoS attacks and IP spoofing attacks at the network level by monitoring all flows in the network in real time and processing specific security attack packets at the P4 switch. In addition, by allowing the P4 switch to apply the network user's or administrator's policy through the SDN (Software-Defined Network) controller, various security requirements in the network application environment can be reflected.

Due to the rapid progress in network technology, many research on content security technologies is also being conducted in the mobile digital content sector. In the meantime, content protection has been immersed in preventing illegal copying, certifying, and issuance/management certificates, but still have many vulnerabilities in managing or authenticating confidential information. This study aims to strengthen confidential information about content based on dual management of content download rights through mobile phone numbers or device numbers. It also protect replay-attack by building a secure mobile DRM system where digital content is safely distributed based on a three-stage user authentication process. In addition, blockchain-based content security enhancements were studied during the primary/secondary process for user authentication for the prevention of piracy and copyright protection. In addition, the client authentication process was further improved through three final stages of authorization in the use of illegal content, considering that legitimate users redistributed their content to third-party.

통신망의 발달로 다양한 인터넷 기반 기술들이 등장함에 따라 현재는 데이터뿐만 아닌 음성에 대한 부분도 IP 네트워크를 통해 전송하려는 움직임이 발판이 되어 VoIP(Voice Over Internet Protocol)라는 기술이 등장하였다. SIP(Session Initiation Protocol) 프로토콜 기반 VoIP 서비스는 통신 절감 효과가 큰 장점과 동시에 다양한 부가서비스를 제공하여 사용자 수가 급증하고 있다. VoIP 서비스는 호(Call)를 제어하기 위해 SIP 기반으로 구성이 되며, SIP 프로토콜은 IP 망을 이용하여 다양한 음성과 멀티미디어 서비스를 제공하게 되는데 IP 프로토콜에서 발생하는 인터넷 보안 취약점을 그대로 동반하기 때문에 DoS(Denial of Service) 및 DDoS(Distribute Denial of Service)에 취약한 성향을 가지고 있다. DDoS 공격은 단시간 내에 대량의 패킷을 타깃 호스트 또는 네트워크에 전송하여 네트워크 접속 및 서비스 기능을 정상적으로 작동하지 못하게 하거나 시스템의 고장을 유도하게 된다. 인터넷 기반 생활이 일상화 되어 있는 현 시점에서 안전한 네트워크 환경을 만들기 위해 DDoS 공격에 대한 대응 방안이 시급한 시점이다. DDoS 공격에 대한 탐지는 매우 어렵기 때문에 근본적인 대책 마련에 대한 연구가 필요하며, 정상적인 트래픽 및 악의적인 트래픽에 대한 탐지 시스템 개발이 절실히 요구되는 사항이다. 본 논문에서는 SIP 프로토콜 및 공격기법에 대해 조사하고, DoS와 DDoS 공격에 대한 특성 및 종류에 대해 조사하였으며, SIP를 이용한 VoIP 서비스에서 IP 분류와 메시지 중복 검열을 통한 DDoS 공격 탐지기법을 제안한다.

The darknet is frequently referred to as the hub of illicit online activity. In order to keep track of real-time applications and activities taking place on Darknet, traffic on that network must be analysed. It is without a doubt important to recognise network traffic tied to an unused Internet address in order to spot and investigate malicious online activity. Any observed network traffic is the result of mis-configuration from faked source addresses and another methods that monitor the unused space address because there are no genuine devices or hosts in an unused address block. Digital systems can now detect and identify darknet activity on their own thanks to recent advances in artificial intelligence. In this paper, offer a generalised method for deep learning-based detection and classification of darknet traffic. Furthermore, analyse a cutting-edge complicated dataset that contains a lot of information about darknet traffic. Next, examine various feature selection strategies to choose a best attribute for detecting and classifying darknet traffic. For the purpose of identifying threats using network properties acquired from darknet traffic, devised a hybrid deep learning (DL) approach that combines Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM). This probing technique can tell malicious traffic from legitimate traffic. The results show that the suggested strategy works better than the existing ways by producing the highest level of accuracy for categorising darknet traffic using the Black widow optimization algorithm as a feature selection approach and RNN-BiLSTM as a recognition model.

The convergence of education and technology has been emphasized, leading to the application of educational technology (EdTech) in the field of education. EdTech provides learner-centered, customized learning environments through various media and learning situations. In this paper, we designed hardware for EdTech-based educational tools for IoT security education in the field of cybersecurity education. The hardware is based on a dual microcontroller unit (MCU) within a single board, allowing for both attack and defense to be performed. To leverage various sensors in the Internet of Things (IoT), the hardware is modularly designed. From an educational perspective, utilizing EdTech in cybersecurity education enhances engagement by incorporating tangible physical teaching aids. The proposed research suggests that the design of IoT security education hardware can serve as a reference for simplifying the creation of a security education environment for embedded hardware, software, sensor networks, and other areas that are challenging to address in traditional education..

The conversion of the international standard web utilization HTML5 technology is being developed for improvement of the internet environment based on nonstandard technology like ActiveX. Hyper Text Markup Language 5 (HTML5) of basic programming language for creating a web page is designed to consider the security more than HTML4. However, the range of attacks increased and a variety of security threats generated from HTML4 environment inherited by new HTML5 API. In this paper, we focus on the script-based attack such as CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery), Cookie Sniffing, and HTML5 API such as CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing), Geolocation API related with the infringement of the personal information. We reproduced the infringement cases actually and embodied a detection module of a Plug-in type diagnosed based on client. The scanner allows it to detect and respond to the vulnerability of HTML5 previously, thereby self-diagnosing the reliability of HTML5-based web applications or web pages. In a case of a new vulnerability, it also easy to enlarge by adding another detection module.

Spectrum scarcity problem and increasing spectrum demand for new wireless applications have embossed the importance of cognitive radio technology; the technology enables the sharing of channels among secondary (unlicensed) and primary (licensed) users on a non-interference basis after sensing the vacant channel. To enhance the accuracy of sensing, distributed spectrum sensing is proposed. However, it is necessary to provide the robustness against the compromised sensing nodes in the distributed spectrum sensing. RDSS, a fusion mechanism based on the reputation of sensing nodes and WSPRT (weighted sequential probability ratio test), was proposed. However, in RDSS, the execution number of WSPRT could increase according to the order of inputted sensing values, and the fast defense against the forged values is difficult. In this paper, we propose an enhanced fusion mechanism to input the sensing values in reputation order and exclude the sensing values with the high possibility to be compromised, using the trend of reputation variation. We evaluate our mechanism through simulation. The results show that our mechanism improves the robustness against attack with the smaller number of sensing values and more accurate detection ratio than RDSS.
