Recently, applications range of NFC is widening by popularization of smartphone. Expansion of NFC means generalization of electronic payments systems. So security of NFC is very important. AES-128 is safe cryptographic technique for NFC now in use. But, the more range of applications increases, the more safe cryptographic techniques are necessary. In this paper, we propose the safe method is unaffected by the development of NFC. Proposed A-NFC scheme, adding the authentication of asymmetric cryptographic, is easy to apply for NFC and NFC-USIM chipsets, and it can adapt to the general NFC environment.

NFC(Near Field Communication) is a wireless data exchange technology in 13.56MHz frequency band between devices. The NFC Forum defines the NDEF(NFC Data Exchange Format) exchanging data format between NFC devices and NFC Tags, the NFC RTD(Record Type Definition) defining the record types in the NDEF messages, the Smart Poster RTD in order to replace current paper posters and the Signature RTD to ensure the authenticity and integrity for NDEF records. But the previous smart poster authentication scheme have the weaknesses of using the PKI(Public Key Infrastructure) with certificates to verify the public key for the smart poster authentication and requiring the additional storage capacity of NFC tags for the authentication path. Therefore in this paper we propose a smart poster authentication scheme and implementation based on the authentication URL, a digital signature and a public key without the PKI and certificates for the smart poster authentication.

Lately weight for smartphone mounted to function for NFC is increasing, rapidly. Because of this, NFC related technology is made by many companies. We developed Gallery-Auction for security enhancements and new services of NFC-based 2 factor electronic payment system. Enhanced security features development of user authentication module through fingerprint recognition to apply FIDO authentication technology and developed electronic contract voice service of Gallery-Auction using TTS(Text to Speech). Therefore we enhanced convenient and simple authentication method and security through NFC mobile electronic payment.

The issued problem in the existed NFC authentication system is the security problem caused by the fixed key and the inconvenience occurred by the extra NFC tag. This paper aims to enhance the security level through OTP system added up the key generation mechanism and the convenience level by the integrated Android App. This proposed authentication system on Arduino will be widely applied to IoT security and will be used on diverse applications.

In this paper, we propose the micropayment model based on NFC, authentication, and privacy technique to support micro-payment in aspect of information technology to reinvigorate the traditional market. The micropayment model supports facilities of payment using smart phone based on NFC, and the encryption and tokenization support the functions of MD authentication, indirection authentication, and privacy of user's payment.

NFC(Near Field Communication) 기술은 스마트 폰과 같은 모바일 기기에 적용되어 정보의 송수신을 위한 매체로 활용될 뿐만 아니라 결제, 개인인증 등 다양한 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 따라서 이러한 NFC 기술을 이용해 개인정보를 활용한 다양한 맞춤형 서비스들이 등장하고 있으며 이에 따른 개인 정보위협의 부작용도 발생되고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 현재 NFC 서비스에서 발생할 보안 위협 요소에 대한 분석과 해결책에 대한 연구는 매우 미비하다. 본 논문에서는 NFC 서비스에 대한 보안 취약점과 NFC 기반 시스템에서 발생할 수 있는 공격들에 대해 분석하고, 이를 해결하기 위해 NFC 기반 시스템의 인증 메커니즘을 제안한다.

최근 스마트 기기는 결제, 할인쿠폰 등 각종 기능을 제공하는 수단으로 진화되면서 통신과 금융이 융합된 모바일 NFC 서비스 시장이 급성장하고 있다. 특히 모바일 NFC 결제 서비스 시장의 활성화가 예상됨에 따라 보안의 중요성은 점점 커지고 있지만 현재 이를 주도할 수 있는 보안 관련 기술력은 매우 미미한 상태이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 NFC를 이용한 결제 시 발생할 수 있는 보안 문제를 해결하기 위해 NFC-USIM 인증서를 이용한 전자 결제 인증 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안 방식은 NFC 보안시 발생할 수 있는 도청(Eavesdropping), 데이터 수정(Data Modification), 데이터 삽입(Data Insertion)등에 대비하기 위해 NFC-USIM 인증서를 이용한 모바일 인증 프로토콜을 제안함으로써 안전하고 효율적인 모바일 보안 결제 서비스가 가능하도록 한다.

As smart devices and OS with communication capabilities based latest NFC (Near Field Communication) have been spreaded, many applications with using existing RFID are being replaced to NFC. Smart NFC technology and existing services and devices can be easily combined convergence and advantage of smart phones, such as authentication and billing, medical care, the creation of a new paradigm of Network Communication are to be expected. By developing H/W, S/W of the Smart NFC Security Authenticator(SNSA), satisfying with wireless communication test results within accepted reference value, analyzing and testing the impact of topology, the signal performance of Daisy Chain Topology was much better than Star Topology's.

This paper proposes a method for the immobilization of motorbike brakes in conjunction with near-field communication (NFC) technology in order to meet the increasing demand for security and convenience of motorbike drivers. We thought about the concept of wireless key, NFC security devices and automatic solenoid valve for setting the lock and unlock module. This paper propose the design and development of an innovative anti-theft alarm system for motorcycles using NFC smart devices based on RFID system, the basis of IoT and AES(advanced encryption standard) encryption Algorithm. The design concept is based on NFC communication strategy between the vehicle and owner. To do this concept, we designed motorcycle smart key system with general-purpose NFC system and the automatic solenoid valve for setting the lock and unlock module. First, we designed control unit and NFC card reader for motorcycle smart key system. Then we propose an AES encryption algorithm and prove that the motorcycle key system is controllable by showing the result of implementing and testing, after installing.

Since most of recently launched smart devices support NFC(Near Field Communication), RFID applications are tend to be replaced. For instance, previous RFID application areas such as entrance control, mobile e-ticket, electronic payment and et. al are subject to change using NFC. Due to the limitation of passive communication in RFID, it is impossible to cover all security requirements of authentication and authorization mechanism that wide areas of applications demand. Therefore authentication and authorization mechanism based on NFC is very attractive to such applications because active communication methods make it possible to be highly secure in authentication and authorization. In this paper, authors propose a new approach of secure authentication and authorization mechanism using NFC smart devices based on EAP(Extensible Authentication Protocol) and AAA(Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) protocols.
