  • This paper proposed a method that prevents data leakage and modulation and detects an unauthorized device by using AP and mobile device. Most of existing method for detecting and preventing an unauthorized device are similar to type of Evil Twin. However, in previous studies can not resolve many security accident and have the problem to cope with effectively security accident on various network. In order to solve these problem, companies prepare security accident through the varies policy and guideline. but It is hard to prevent all security accident because it is consistently increasing everyday. This paper suggests technique of detecting and preventing an unauthorized device using Context Awareness and Mobile Device Management. Firstly, when mobile device go into internal network, server distinguish access permission and authorization of mobile device using acquiring the conetxt information of mobile device. By using this result, server applies the appropriate management technique to the mobile device for leakage and accident of internal network.

  • Mobile RFID is a new application that uses a mobile phone as an RFID reader with wireless technology and provides a new valuable service to users by integrating RFID and ubiquitous sensor network infrastructures with mobile communication and wireless Internet. Whereas the mobile RFID system has many advantages, privacy violation problems on the reader side are very concerning to individuals and researchers. Unlike in regular RFID environments, where the communication channel between the server and reader is assumed to be secure, the communication channel between the backend server and the RFID reader in the mobile RFID system is not assumed to be safe. Therefore it has become necessary to devise a new communication protocol that secures the privacy of mobile RFID-enabled devices. Recently, Lo et al. proposed a mutual key agreement protocol that secures the authenticity and privacy of engaged mobile RFID readers by constructing a secure session key between the reader and server. However, this paper shows that this protocol does not meet all of the necessary security requirements. Therefore we developed an enhanced mutual key agreement protocol for mobile RFID-enabled devices that alleviates these concerns. We further show that our protocol can enhance data security and provide privacy protection for the reader in an unsecured mobile RFID environment, even in the presence of an active adversary.

  • Smartphone security threat has become an important issue in Information Science field following the wide distribution of smartphones. However, there are few studies related to such. Therefore, this study examined the factors affecting the intention of smartphone users to use the mobile vaccine against malware with the Protection Motivation Theory. To secure the reliability of the study, a surveying agency was commissioned. A total of 263 respondents, excluding 37 respondents who are users of iOS, which does not have mobile vaccine in the smart phone, or who gave invalid responses, were surveyed. The results showed that perception of the installed mobile vaccine significantly affected the Response Efficacy and Self-efficacy, and that the Perceived Severity, Perceived Vulnerability, Response Efficacy, and Self-efficacy significantly influenced the intention to use the mobile vaccine. On the other hand, Installation Perception of mobile vaccine itself did not affect the Perceived Severity and Perceived Vulnerability. This study is significant since it presented the new evaluation model of threat evaluation and response evaluation in the Protection Motivation Theory in accepting the security technology and raised the need for the promotion and exposure of mobile vaccine, since perception of mobile vaccine installation affects the response evaluation. It also found that the promotion must consider the seriousness of smartphone security, outstanding attribute of mobile vaccine, and user-friendliness of mobile vaccine above all.

  • Mobile IPv6 is one of method can keep Mobile node's session. To solve legacy Mobile IPv4's triangular routing problem, in Mobile IPv6, Mobile Node could directly communicate with Correspond node by Binding Update. But, attacker could interfere Return Routability Procedure that is Correspond node check Home address and Care of address reachable. At this result, Attacker is able to hijack Session to correspond node from Mobile node. In This paper, We propose new Binding Update scheme for solving that problem. Our approach is that MN gives association both home token and care of token using onewayness of keyed hash fuction. From security and performance analysis, we can see that proposed binding Update Scheme can achieve stronger security than legacy scheme and at the same time requires minimal computational overhead.

  • As increasing of smartphone penetration over the world, various mobile payment services have been emerged and fraud transactions have drastically increased. Although many financial companies have deployed security solutions to detect fraud transactions in on/off-line environment, mobile payment services still lack fraud detection solutions and researches. The mobile payment is mainly comprised of micro-payments and payment environment is different from other payments, so mobile-specialized fraud detection is needed. In this paper, we propose a FDS (Fraud Detection System) based on data mining for mobile payment services. The method of this paper is applied to the real data provided by a PG (Payment Gateway) company in Korea. The proposed FDS consists of two phases; (1) the first phase is focused on classifying transactions at high speed (2) the second is designed to detect abnormal transactions with high accuracy. We could detect 13 transactions per second with 93% accuracy rate.

  • By providing ubiquitous Internet connectivity, wireless networks offer more convenient ways for users to surf the Internet. However, wireless networks encounter more technological challenges than wired networks, such as bandwidth, security problems, and handoff latency. Thus, this paper proposes new technologies to solve these problems. First, a Security Access Gateway (SAG) is proposed to solve the security issue. Originally, mobile terminals were unable to process high security calculations because of their low calculating power. SAG not only offers high calculating power to encrypt the encryption demand of SAG's domain, but also helps mobile terminals to establish a multiple safety tunnel to maintain a secure domain. Second, Robust Header Compression (RoHC) technology is adopted to increase the utilization of bandwidth. Instead of Access Point (AP), Access Gateway (AG) is used to deal with the packet header compression and de-compression from the wireless end. AG's high calculating power is able to reduce the load on AP. In the original architecture, AP has to deal with a large number of demands by header compression/de-compression from mobile terminals. Eventually, wireless networks must offer users "Mobility" and "Roaming". For wireless networks to achieve "Mobility" and "Roaming," we can use Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) technology. Nevertheless, such technology might cause latency. Furthermore, how the security tunnel and header compression established before the handoff can be used by mobile terminals handoff will be another great challenge. Thus, this paper proposes to solve the problem by using Early Binding Updates (EBU) and Security Access Gateway (SAG) to offer a complete mechanism with low latency, low handoff mechanism calculation, and high security.

  • China first started its mobile phone services in 1987, and the number of users has exponentially increased so that it reached 700 millions in January 2009. Currently China's 2G(GSM) users is 650 millions. These 2G (GSM) services have an advantage of the capability to use the mobile phone with a SIM (Subscriber Identity Modul) card, one kind of smart cards, inserted into it. However, due to the security vulnerability of SIM cards being used within China's 2G (GSM) services, SIM cards cloning. Problems concerning mobile phone surveillance towards a designated person by illegal cloning ESN and IMSI have recently risen to be a massive social issue within Korea as well. These studies have experimented the possibility of SIM cards clone in various mobile communication corporations using 2G (GSM) in China, and hence discovered the security vulnerability such as the incoming outgoing, SMS service and additional services on mobile phones using clone SIM cards.
