현재 PGP(Pretty Good Privacy)와 S/MIME(Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension)와 같은 여러 가지 이메일 보안 프로토콜들이 제안되어 사용되고 있으나 이들 프로토콜은 최근 중요시되고 있는 보안 요구사항인 전방향 안전성을 보장하지 못한다. 최근에 이 요구사항을 충족하는 이메일 보안 프로토콜들이 제안되었으나 현실적이지 못한 가정 하에 설계되었거나 효율성 측면에서 개선이 필요한 프로토콜들이다. 또한 일부 프로토콜들은 실제 완전한 전방향 안전성을 제공하지 못하고 있다. 이 논문에서는 이 부분을 개선하고, 완전한 전방향 안전성을 제공하는 안전한 이메일 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안되는 프로토콜은 Zheng 의 signcryption 기법을 사용하여 효율적이고 안전한 인증을 제공한다.

Ransomware, a malicious program that requires money and then locks computers and files on network users for financial harvesting, will continue to evolve. Ransomware is a threat in mail systems that send and receive business information. By using Block Chain, Distributed Ledger technology, it is designed to be a safe mail system in which the automatically generated Ramsomware symptom data is directly linked to the security policy in the enterprise.

최근에 유포되고 있는 악의적인 소프트웨어로 Melissa와 Love letter와 같은 전자우편 바이러스가 있는데, 이들은 단순히 전자우편을 열기 만해도 메일 주소록에 등록된 모든 사용자에게 자신을 유포함으로써 막대한 피해를 유발시킨다 본 논문에서는 메일 주소 변형모듈 및 복원모듈을 전자우편 송신부에 추가 도입함으로써 전자우편 바이러스에 의한 바이러스 전파를 차단하는 시스템을 제안한다. 변형모듈은 송신자 행위에 의해서만 수행되어 수신자의 메일 주소를 변형하며, 복원모듈은 송신부의 서버 단에서 전자우편 전송 시마다 수행되어 역변형 과정을 거쳐 메일 주소를 복구한다. 변형모듈은 전자우편 바이러스에 의해서는 실행되지 않도록 구현되며, 전자우편 수신부에서는 추가로 하는 작업이 전혀 없다. 제안한 시스템에서는 새로운 전자우편 바이러스 공격에 대응하기 위해서, 다형성(polymorphism) 기법도 적용한다.

Virus protection infrastructure managementis network infrastructure management, traffic route management, virus protection zone expansion, and virus protection management for gateway area. This research paper provides a diagnosis of characteristics and weaknesses of the structure of existing virus protection infrastructure, and recommends an improved multi-level virus protection infrastructure as a measure for correcting these weaknesses. Improved virus protection infrastructure filters unnecessary mail at the gateway stage to reduce the load on server. As a result, numberof transmission accumulation decreases due to the reduction in the CPU load on the Virus wall and increase in virus treatment rate.

인터넷 이용자가 증가함에 따라 전자메일 사용자도 증가하고 있다. 전자메일 사용으로 통신상의 비용 및 시간이 절약되는 장점이 있지만 소수의 유저들이 상업적 목적으로 많은 유저에게 원하지 않은 메일(스팸메일)을 보냄으로써 물질적, 정신적 피해를 입히고 있다. 따라서 스팸 메일을 방지하기 위한 여러 기법들이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 스팸 메일 문제를 해결하기 위해 먼저 전자메일 시스템에 대한 구조를 살펴보고 MTA, MDA를 이용하는 스팸 메일 필터링 도구들을 비교 분석한 연구결과를 제시한다. 그리고 탐지 성능을 개선할 수 있는 새로운 방안을 제시한다. 제안 방법은 공개 배포용 MDA인 procmail에 기반한 것으로, 규칙(rule)을 매칭(matching)시키는 시간을 줄이는 것이다.

The article considers in detail the possibilities and significance of marketing technologies for additional education programs as the most flexible and adaptive component of the educational process. Moreover, additional education programs are the most market-defined. Also at this stage, we have developed the structure of the e-mail message about ongoing additional educational programs in order to promote them, and on its basis, we have prepared an example of a letter for e-mail.informational and educational mailing using techniques to attract the attention of the addressee in order to promote additional educational programs.The content of the letter was also formed for students of the electronic course "Education Marketing", sent out in order to monitor the educational process.

In this paper, we propose an improved Bayesian Filtering mechanism to reduce the False Positives that occurs in the existing Bayesian Filtering mechanism. In the existing Bayesian Filtering mechanism, the same Bayesian Filtering DB trained at the e-mail server is applied to each e-mail user. Also, the training method using receiving e-mails only could not provide the high quality of ham DB. Due to these problems, the existing Bayesian Filtering mechanism can produce the False Positives which misclassify the ham e-mails into the spam e-mails. In the proposed mechanism, the sending e-mails of the user are treated as the high quality of ham information, and are trained to the Bayesian ham DB automatically. In addition, by providing a different Bayesian DB to each e-mail user respectively, more efficient e-mail filtering service is possible. Our experiments show the improvement of filtering accuracy by 3.13%, compared to the existing Bayesian Filtering mechanism.

As the use of the internet increases, the distribution of spam mail has also vastly increased. The email's main use was for the exchange of information, however, currently it is being more frequently used for advertisement and malware distribution. This is a serious problem because it consumes a large amount of the limited internet resources. Furthermore, an extensive amount of computer, network and human resources are consumed to prevent it. As a result much research is being done to prevent and filter spam. Currently, research is being done on readable sentences which do not use proper grammar. This type of spam can not be classified by previous vocabulary analysis or document classification methods. This paper proposes a method to filter spam by using the subject of the mail and N-GRAM for indexing and Bayesian, SVM algorithms for classification.

Today, people share information and communicate with others using various information and communication media such as e-mail, smartphones, SNS, etc. However, it is being used in malicious attacks to send a large amount of illegal spam or to use it for fraud by using illegally collected personal information and devices that are vulnerable to security. Illegal spam, smishing, and fraudulent mail(SCAM) cause a lot of direct and indirect damage to companies and users, including not only social costs such as mental fatigue, but also unnecessary consumption of IT infrastructure resources and economic losses. Although there are regulations related to spam, violators of the law are still on the rise by circumventing the law, and victims are constantly occurring, so it is necessary to review what the problem is. This study examined domestic and foreign spam-related regulations and spam-related response activities, identified problems, and suggested improvement countermeasures. Through this study, it was intended to suggest directions for improving spam-related systems in order to block illegal spam and prevent fraudulent damage.

This paper proposes an efficient technique to protect e-mail server from DDoS attack using the CBQ (Class Based Queuing) algorithm The proposed method classifies incoming trafic to an e-mail server into three classes: 'more important mail traffic', 'less important traffic' and 'unknown traffic' and assigns bandwidths differently to the traffics. By differentiating the bandwidths of classes, normal mail traffic may flow even under DDoS attack in the proposed technique. The proposed technique is implemented on an embedded system which hires a switching processor with the WFHBD(Weighted Fair Hashed Bandwidth Distribution) engine that has been known as an efficient algorithm to distribute a given bandwidth to multiple sources, and it is verified that it can be an efficient way to protect e-mail server from DDoS attack.
