본 논문에서는 사용자 인증에 사용되는 패스워드 검증자의 안전성을 더욱 보강한 새로운 패스워드 검증자 기반 키 분배 프로토콜을 제안한다 기존 패스워드 기반 키 분배프로토콜 방식은 네트워크 상에서 패스워드의 안전한 전송이 어려웠고, 패스워드 파일의 안전한 보호가 어렵다는 문제가 있었다. 이에 패스워드 파일을 그대로 서버에 저장하지 않고 패스워드를 사용하여 생성한 검증자(verifier)를 저장하게 함으로써 패스워드파일을 보다 안전하게 보호할 수 있게 되었으며, 서버가 사용자의 패스워드를 알지 못하더라도 검증자를 사용한 증명방식을 통해 사용자를 인증할 수 있게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 사용자와 서버의 비밀정보로 만든 새로운 형태의 검증자를 사용하고, 사용자는 다른 저장정보 없이 기억하고 있는 ID와 패스워드만을 사용하여 키 분배를 수행하는 패스워드 검증자 기반 키 분배 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안하는 프로토콜의 안전성 분석을 위해 active impersonation과 forward secrecy, man-in-the-middle attack, off-line dictionary attack 등의 공격 모델을 적용하였다.

Until now, various studies on anti-phishing have been conducted. The most typical anti-phishing method is a method of collecting URL information of a phishing site in advance and then detecting phishing by comparing the URL of the visited site with the previously stored information. However, this blacklist-based anti-phishing method can not detect new phishing sites. For this reason, various anti-phishing authentication protocols have been proposed. but these protocols require a public key and a private key. In this paper, we propose a password-based mutual authentication protocol that is safe for phishing attacks. In the proposed protocol, the mutual authentication between the client and the server is performed through the authentication message including the password information. The proposed protocol is safe to eavesdropping attack because the authentication message uses the hash value of the password, not the original password, And it is safe to replay attack because different messages are used every time of authentication. In addition, since mutual authentication is performed, it is safe for man-in-the-middle attack. Finally, the proposed protocol does not require a key issuance process for authentication.

Nowadays, all over the world's banks use internet banking through various authentication methods. Although there are strong authentication methods using OTP (One Time Password), there still has vulnerability from sophisticated attacks such as MITM (Man In The Middle). This letter proposes signing-based authentication protocol that copes with attacks, such as MITB (Man In The Browser), and provides non-repudiation function. The protocol shows generic method to prevent the sophisticated attacks through connecting advantages from OTP and PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) certificate, and that can be deployed to various extended form in internet banking.

The development of wireless communication technology and change in the ICT market has led to the development of the M2M service and technology. Under these circumstances, the M2M environment has been the focus of communication environment construction between machines without control or direct intervention of human being. With characteristics of wireless communication environment, the possibility of being exposed to numerous security threats and safe communication security technology have becoming an issue an important requirements for problems such as data exposure, forgery, modulation, deletion, and privacy. This research analyzes requirements of trapdoor collision hash, generates keys between groups under the M2M environment by using the specificity of trapdoor, and suggests technology to exchange keys with session keys. Further, it also suggests techniques to confirm authentication of device and gateway in accordance with group key generation. The techniques herein suggested are confirmed as safe methods in that they have attack resistance such as Masquerade Attack, Man-in-the-Middle Attack, and Replay Attack in the group communication block by using the speciality of collision message and collision hash.

In this paper, we proposed scheme that we use a difference of timestamp in time in Ubiquitous environments as we use the Diffie-Hellman method that OTP was applied to when it deliver a key between nodes, and can detect a malicious node at these papers. Existing methods attempted the malicious node detection in the ways that used correct synchronization or directed antenna in time. We propose an intermediate malicious node detection way at these papers without an directed antenna addition or the Trusted Third Party (TTP) as we apply the OTP which used timestamp to a Diffie-Hellman method, and we verify safety regarding this. A way to propose at these papers is easily the way how application is possible in Ubiquitous environment.

Smart phones, greatly expanding in the recent mobile market, are equipped with various features compared to existing feature phones and provide the conveniences to in several ways. The camera, one of the features of a smartphone, creates the digital contents, such photos and videos, and plays a role for the media which transmits information, such as video calls and bar code reader. QR-Code recognition is also one of the camera features. It contains a variety of information in two-dimensional bar code type in matrix format, and makes it possible to obtain the information by using smart phones. This paper analyzes the method of QR-Code recognition, password method-the existing user-authentication technique, smart card, biometrics and voice recognition and so on and thenn designs a new user-authentication technique. The proposed user-authentication technique is the technique in which QR-Code, which can be simply granted is read by smart phones and transmitted to a server, for authentication. It has the advantages in view that it will simply the process of authentication and conteract the disadvantages, such as brute force attack, man-inthe-middle attack, and keyboard hacking, which may occur in other authentication techniques.

As people increasingly rely on mobile networks in modern society, mobile communication security is becoming more and more important. In the Long Term Evolution/System Architecture Evolution (LTE/SAE) architecture, the 3rd Generation Partnership (3GPP) team has also developed the improved Evolved Packet System Authentication and Key Agreement (EPS AKA) protocol based on the 3rd Generation Authentication and Key Agreement (3G AKA) protocol in order to provide mutual authentication and secure communication between the user and the network. Unfortunately, the EPS AKA also has several vulnerabilities such as sending the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) in plain text (which leads to disclosure of user identity and further causes location and tracing of the user, Mobility Management Entity (MME) attack), man-in-middle attack, etc. Hence, in this paper, we analyze the EPS AKA protocol and point out its deficiencies and then propose an Efficient and Security Enhanced Authentication and Key agreement (ESE-EPS AKA) protocol based on hybrid of Dynamic Pseudonym Mechanism (DPM) and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) retaining the original framework and the infrastructure of the LTE network. Then, our evaluation proves that the proposed new ESE-EPS AKA protocol is relatively more efficient, secure and satisfies some of the security requirements such as confidentiality, integrity and authentication.

Nowadays, WiMAX which provides internet service with a middle and low speed serves more function and is wider than Wi-Fi. While they solve the security risks as subscribers do handover by subscriber's re-certification procedure as the Network range is getting wider, there are more security problems making the problems of electric-power consumption and delay. This paper suggests a handover mechanism which simplify the subscriber's re-certification procedure and prevents a security problem as doing handover for solving the problem of delay and the rate of processing. The mechanism can cooperate with PKI structure to increase flexibility and security and minimize network re-entry procedure or re-certification procedure by providing continual service. As a result. the mechanism's throughput as the number of subscribers is lower than IEEE 802.16e and the mechanism proves that it is secure from the attack of man-in-the-middle and reply as doing handover.
