As the usage of computers and mobile handsets is popularized, the processing and storing of private and business data are increased. Hence we note that these sensitive data should never be transferred out of these personal devices without user's permission. In this paper, we propose a simple method to prevent transferring the sensitive data out of personal computing devices through their networking interfaces. The proposed method determines which processes invoke open system call related to the sensitive data, and then traces them within a specific duration. The proposed scheme has advantage over the existing ones using authentication or encryption because it could be still working well independent upon the new attack technologies or the latest vulnerabilities of hardware and software. In order to verify the proposed algorithm, we test it by implementing the necessary codes at the user and kernel spaces of Linux.

모바일 네트워크 환경은 언제 어디서나 네트워크를 사용하는 모바일 서비스를 편리하게 사용할 수 있도록 해준다. 그러나 언제 어디서나 서비스를 제공받을 수 있다는 것은 언제 어디서든지 정보가 누출되거나 왜곡될 위험성 또한 존재하기 마련이다. 특히, 프라이버시 문제가 해결되지 않고서는 우리 일상생활과 융합되어 편리함을 제공해주는 모바일 네트워크 환경이 오히려 모바일 네트워크 감시 체제를 구축하는 심각한 역기능을 초래하게 될 것이다. 모바일 단말기들은 크기와 모양이 다양하고 컴퓨팅 연산 능력이 적은 저성능 휴대 장치들이 많기 때문에, 컴퓨팅 연산이 많이 요구되는 공개키 암호 기술을 저성능 모바일 단말기에 적용하기는 힘든 상황이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 프라이버시 문제를 해결하면서, 컴퓨팅 연산 능력이 적은 저성능 모바일 단말기에 적용할 수 있는 자바 기반의 암호 모듈 및 PKI 기반의 사용자 인증을 제안하고자 한다. 국내 표준 암호 알고리즘(SEED)과 인증서를 기반으로 세션키와 공개키를 조합함으로서 최소한의 암복호화 연산을 통해 인증 및 전자 서명을 제공하며, 이를 대표적인 모바일 단말기인 PDA 환경에서 세션키 분배 및 사용자 인증이 안전하게 이루어짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

Biometric techniques for authentication using body parts such as a fingerprint, face, iris, voice, finger-vein and also photoplethysmography have become increasingly important in the personal security field, including door access control, finance security, electronic passport, and mobile device. Finger-vein images are now used to human identification, however, difficulties in recognizing finger-vein images are caused by capturing under various conditions, such as different temperatures and illumination, and noise in the acquisition camera. The human photoplethysmography is also important signal for human identification. In this paper To increase the recognition rate, we develop camera based identification method by combining finger vein image and photoplethysmography signal. We use a compact CMOS camera with a penetrating infrared LED light source to acquire images of finger vein and photoplethysmography signal. In addition, we suggest a simple pattern matching method to reduce the calculation time for embedded environments. The experimental results show that our simple system has good results in terms of speed and accuracy for personal identification compared to the result of only finger vein images.

Facial recognition is a biometric technology that is used in various fields such as user authentication and identification of human characteristics. Face recognition applications are practically used in various fields, but very few applications have been developed to improve the factory work environment. We implemented applications that uses face recognition to identify a specific employee in a factory .work environment and provide customized information for each employee. Factory workers need documents describing the work in order to do their assigned work. Factory managers can use our application to register documents needed for each worker, and workers can view the documents assigned to them. Each worker is identified using face recognition, and by tracking the worker's face during work, it is possible to know that the worker is in the workplace. In addition, as a mobile app for workers is provided, workers can view the contents using a tablet, and we have defined a simple communication protocol to exchange information between our applications. We demonstrated the applications in a factory work environment and found several improvements were required for practical use. We expect these results can be used to improve factory work environments.

Indoor location system using wireless sensor network technology was applied for the status evaluation and activity monitoring of elderly person or chronic invalid at home. Location awareness application is transparent to the daily activities, while providing the embedded computing infrastructure with an awareness of what is happening in this space. To locate an object, the active ceiling-mounted reference beacons were placed throughout the building. Reference beacons periodically publish location information on RF and ultrasonic signals to allow application running on mobile or static nodes to study and determine their physical location. Once object-carried passive listener receives the information, it subsequently determines it's location from reference beacons. By using only the sensor nodes without any external network infrastructure the cost of the system was reduced while the accuracy in our experiments. was fairly good and fine grained between 7 and 15 cm for location awareness in indoor environments. Passive architecture used here provides the security of the user privacy while at the server the privacy was secured by providing the authentication using Geopriv approach. This information from sensor nodes is further forwarded to base station where further computation is performed to determine the current position of object and several applications are enabled for context awareness.

The fingerprint is the identity authentication method which is representative uses biometrics. Compared with password methods there is a feature where the dangerousness of embezzling or lossing is few. With like these features using the fingerprint in OTP creations. In this paper, we introduce the developed prototype of OTP system using fingerprint. And the overcome method of OTP system's demerit using fingerprint which extracts few minutiae points into a whole fingerprint image is proposed. A few minutiae points wasn't generated many encryption key for OTP session. The proposed method is overlaid the same fingerprint simply and added many minutiae points as biased overlaid fingerprints. Hence the security of OTP using fingerprint and the randomness over password-guessing are strengthened.

The proliferation of wireless local area networks (WLANs) offering high data rate in hot spot area have spurred the demand for possible WLANs and third-generation (3G) cellular network integration solutions as the initiative step towards 4G systems. This paper provides a novel architecture for seamless location-aware integration of WLANs into 3G cellular networks and also an analysis for the efficient handover techniques. We introduce location as a key context in secure roaming mechanism for context-aware interworking in 4G systems. The fast secure roaming with location-aware authentication is implemented at an entity called location-aware service (LAS) broker that utilizes the concepts of direction of user and pre-warming zone. The location-ware interworking architecture supports seamless roaming services among heterogeneous wireless networks including WLANs, wireless metropolitan area networks (WMANs), and 3G cellular networks. This paper also includes a description of procedures needed to implement efficient mobility and location management. We show how the LAS broker with pre-warming and context transfer can obtain significant lower latency in the vertical handover.
