  • In this paper we propose a new algorithm which resolves the inconsistency problems occurring when DNS severs are employed as elements of PKI. The inconsistency may take place between primary name servers and secondary name servers and between cached certificate and original certificate. The former can be removed by adapting RFC 1996 NOTIFY opcode for DNS. In order to eliminate the latter type of inconsistency we develope a new algorithm which is implemented with two additional RR(Resource Record). The present algorithm is designed such that DNS contacts the destination DNS prior to returning public key to users. Therefore the inconsistency problem occurring when DNS is operated as PKI can be eliminated by using the proposed adaptation and algorithm.

  • Recetly, the term Personal Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) was introduced to supprot reliable and authenticated service in a Personal Area Network (PAN). However, traditional public key signature schemes and certificate status management are not suitable for a PAN environment since mobile devices that constitute the PAN have limited computing capability. In this paper, we propose a new scheme that efficiently provides signature generation and certificate status management for mobile devices. Based on hash chain technique, we intend to reduce computational overhead on signature generation, and further, to minimize communication overhead for managing certificate status.

  • In the field of secure information systems including electronic commercials, public key infrastructure(PKI) is widely used for secure services. The more PKI domains are established, the more needs we required for cross-domain certifications. Furthermore, each country has many certificate authorities(CA) which requires more complex cross certification. We may need a fast algorithm in order to fad the possible certification paths. This will be more indispensible in the growing PKI systems. Thus, in this paper we design a high-speed certification path discovery algorithm and implement it. Also we investigate the feature of operation of the system.

  • 인터넷 사용자의 증가와 더불어 보안의 중요성이 확산됨에 따라 공개키 기반구조(Public Key Infrastru cture)하에서의 상호 인증 기술이 정보보호 기반기술의 중요요소로 논의되고 있다. 전자상거래 환경의 각종 응용분야에 대한 정보보호 서비스를 위하여 PKI 환경구축이 선진국들을 중심으로 광범위하게 추진되고 있다. 그러나, 개별적으로 추진되고 있는 다양한 형태의 PKI 환경은 상호 연동성이 보장되어야 한다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 상호연동을 위하여 고려해야 하는 서명 알고리즘의 상호 연동성 방안을 제안하였다.

  • Many service systems use Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to protect the service. But there arc problems with the use of PKI. One of the problems is that some services would require a function instantaneously to check public kel certificate, but PKI does not satisfy such request. To solve the problem, Bouch et al. first proposed the concept of mediated RSA (mRSA). Then Gene Tsudik proposed 'weak' forward secure mRSA. In this paper, we analyze the weakness of these schemes and find the source of the vulnerabilitv. And we propose a new mRSA that is strong forward secure.

  • It is an essential prior condition that information security of all sorts of administration-information on line for E-Government. Every country including United Slates has been constructing and managing Government PKI(Public Key Infrastructure) of information security of one\`s own authentication, confidentiality, integrity, non-repudiation in administration environment on line for information security base construction of E-Government. In this paper, we present an efficient GPKI(Government PKI) implementation suitable for Korea actual circumstance through study and analysis of superior case such as United State.

  • In 1998, A. Young and M. Yung proposed the auto-recovery auto-certificate cryptosystem in public key infrastructure. We propose the new recoverable cryptosystem in public key infrastructure which is designed with the concept of A. Young et al's auto-recovery auto-certificate cryptosystem. It has the private/public key pairs of the user and the master private/public key pairs of the escrow authority. It is based on RSA cryptosystem and has efficiency and security.

  • Wire wireless integrated service of BcN(Broadband convergence Network) is expanding. Information Security issue is highlighted for opposing attack of getting information illegally on wire wireless network. The user of PKI(Public Key Infrastructure) cipher system among Information security technology receives various security services about authentication, confidentiality, integrity, non-repudiation and access control etc. A mobile client and server are loaded certificate and wireless internet cryptography module for trusted data send receive. And data sends receives to each other after certification process through validity check of certificate. Certificate and data security system is researched through PKI on wireless network environment and data security system in this paper.

  • The authentication system of the PKI(public key infrastructure) provides the authenticity and security, accessibility, economic feasibility, and convenience to the service provider and users. Therefore the public and private companies in Korea widely use it as the authentication method of the web service. However, the safety client system is threatened by many vulnerable factors which possibly caused when using PKI-based authentication system. Thus, in this article vulnerable factors caused by using the PKI-based authentication system will be analyzed, which is expected to be the useful data afterwards for the construction of the new authentication system as well as performance improvement.

  • There are some problems on the system that uses a password comprising a digital signature to identify the secret key owner under the public key infrastructure. For example, the password can be difficult to remember or easy to be disclosure, and users should make more complex password to protect it. A number of studies have been proceeded in order to overcome these defects using the fingerprint identification technologies, but they need to change the current standard of public key infrastructure. On the suggested private key escrow system, the private key can be withdrawn only through the enrollment and identification of a fingerprint template after it is saved to a reliable third system. Therefore, this new private key escrow system can remove previous inconveniences of managingthe private key on current public key infrastructure, and it exhibited superior results in terms of the evaluation items when compared with the integrated method of the existing fingerprint identification and public key infrastructure.
