There are many free applications that need users to sign up before they can use the applications nowadays. It is difficult to choose a suitable password for your account. If the password is too complicated, then it is hard to remember it. However, it is easy to be intruded by other users if we use a very simple password. Therefore, biometric-based approach is one of the solutions to solve the issue. The biometric-based approach includes keystroke dynamics on keyboard, mice, or mobile devices, gait analysis and many more. The approach can integrate with any appropriate machine learning algorithm to learn a user typing behavior for authentication system. Preprocessing phase is one the important role to increase the performance of the algorithm. In this paper, we have proposed ensemble-by-session (EBS) method which to operate the preprocessing phase before the training phase. EBS distributes the dataset into multiple sub-datasets based on the session. In other words, we split the dataset into session by session instead of assemble them all into one dataset. If a session is considered as one day, then the sub-dataset has all the information on the particular day. Each sub-dataset will have different information for different day. The sub-datasets are then trained by a machine learning algorithm. From the experimental result, we have shown the improvement of the performance for each base algorithm after the preprocessing phase.

This paper presents a new one-time password approach generated based on $4{\times}4$ pattern schedule. It demonstrates generation of passkey from initial seed of random codes and mapping out in table pattern schedule which will produce a new form of OTP scheme in protecting information or data. The OTP-2FA has been recognized by many organizations as a landmark to authentication techniques. OTP is the solution to the shortcomings of the traditional user name/password authentication. With the application of OTP, some have benefited already while others have had second thoughts because of some considerations like cryptographic issue. This paper presents a new method of algorithmic approach based on table schedule (grid authentication). The generation of OTP will be based on the random parameters that will be mapped out in rows and columns allowing the user to form the XY values to get the appropriate values. The algorithm will capture the values and extract the predefined characters that produce the OTP codes. This scheme can work in any information verification system to enhance the security, trust and confidence of the user.

This paper proposes a password-based mutual authentication and key agreement protocol, which is designed by applying ECDSA and ECDH. The proposed protocol, AKE-ECC, computes 2 times of point multiplication over ECC on each of client and server, and generates the key pairs(public key. private key) and a common session key using ECDH that is different compare to previously proposed protocol. It is against common attacks include a dictionary attack and the security of proposed protocol is based on the ECDLP, ECDH.

It is necessary for us to enhance the security service on smart phone by using voice data on authentication procedure. In this study, a voice data based one-time password generation mechanism is designed and implemented for enhancing user authentication on smart phone. After receiving a PIN value from the server, a user inputs his/her own voice biometric data using mike device on smart phone. And then this captured a voice biometric data will be used to generate one-time token on server side after verification procedures. Based on those mutual authentication steps, a voice data based one-time password(V-OTP) will be generated by client module after receiving the one-time token from the server finally. Using proposed voice one-time password mechanism, it is possible for us to provide more secure user authentication service on smart phone.

This paper proposes protocol design that can do user authentication efficiently in current systems that client-server environment is developed. And proposes a password-based authentication protocol suitable to certification through trustless network or key exchange. While the existing password-base protocols certify users through certification authority (CA) between client and server, the proposed protocol in this paper, users and server exchange keys and perform authentication without help of CA. To ameliorate the drawback of password-based protocols causing by the short length and randomness of password, the proposed protocol uses the signature techniques of ECDSA and the SRP protocol based on Diffie-Hellman key exchange method. Also, by with compare to round number and Hash function number and exponential operation of existing protocols, we explained efficiency of proposed protocol.

Internet banking, electronic financial services and internet telephony service can be available on smart phone recently. In this case, more robust authentication mechanisms should be provided for enhancing security on it. In this study, a facial biometric ID based one-time password generation mechanism is designed and implemented for enhancing user authentication on smart phone. After capturing a facial biometric data using camera module on smart phone, it is sent to server to generate one-time biometric ID. Finally one-time password will be generated by client module after receiving the one time biometric ID based challenge token from the server. Using proposed biometric ID based one-time password mechanism, it is possible for us to provide more secure user authentication service on smart phone for SIP protocol.

In the Internet, user authentication is the most important service in secure communications. Although password-based mechanism is the most widely used method of the user authentication in the network, people are used to choose easy-to-remember passwords, and thus suffers from some Innate weaknesses. Therefore, using a memorable password it vulnerable to the dictionary attacks. The techniques used to prevent dictionary attacks bring about a heavy computational workload. In this paper, we describe a recent solution, the Optimal Strong-Password Authentication (OSPA) protocol, and that it is vulnerable to the stolen-verifier attack and an impersonation attack. Then, we propose an Improved Optimal Strong-Password Authentication (I-OSPA) protocol, which is secure against stolen-verifier attack and impersonation attack. Also, since the cryptographic operations are computed by the processor in the smart card, the proposed I-OSPA needs relatively low computational workload and communicational workload for user.

To authorize IPSec-VPN Client in Client-to-Gateway type of the IPSec-VPN system, it can be normally used with ID/Password verification method or the implicit authorization method that regards implicitly IPSec-VPN gateway as authorized one in case that the IPSec-VPN client is authenticated. However, it is necessary for the Client-to-Gateway type of the IPSec-VPN system to have a more effective user authorization mechanism because the ID/Password verification method is not easy to transfer the ID/Password information and the implicit authorization method has the vulnerability of security. This paper proposes an effective user authorization mechanism using an attribute certificate and designs a user authorization engine. In addition, it is implemented in this study. The user authorization mechanism for the IPSec-VPN system proposed in this study is easy to implement the existing IPSec-VPN system. Moreover, it has merit to guarantee the interoperability with other IPSec-VPN systems. Furthermore, the user authorization engine designed and implemented in this paper will provide not only DAC(Discretional Access Control) and RBAC(Role-Based Access Control) using an attribute certificate, but also the function of SSO(Single-Sign-On).

Recently, most of information services are provided by the computer network, since the technology of computer communication is developing rapidly, and the worth of information over the network is also increasing with expensive cost. But various attacks to quietly intercept the informations is invoked with the technology of communication developed, and then most of the financial agency currently have used OTP, which is generated by a token at a number whenever a user authenticates to a server, rather than general static password for some services. A 2-Factor OTP generating method using the OTP token is mostly used by the financial agency. However, the method is vulnerable to real attacks and therefore the OTP token could be robbed and disappeared. In this paper, we propose a 3-Factor OTP way using HMAC to conquer the problems and analyze the security of the proposed scheme.

User authentication, including confidentiality, integrity over untrusted networks, is an important part of security for systems that allow remote access. Using human-memorable Password for remote user authentication is not easy due to the low entropy of the password, which constrained by the memory of the user. This paper presents a new password authentication and key agreement protocol suitable for authenticating users and exchanging keys over an insecure channel. The new protocol resists the dictionary attack and offers perfect forward secrecy, which means that revealing the password to an attacher does not help him obtain the session keys of past sessions against future compromises. Additionally user passwords are stored in a form that is not plaintext-equivalent to the password itself, so an attacker who captures the password database cannot use it directly to compromise security and gain immediate access to the server. It does not have to resort to a PKI or trusted third party such as a key server or arbitrator So no keys and certificates stored on the users computer. Further desirable properties are to minimize setup time by keeping the number of flows and the computation time. This is very useful in application which secure password authentication is required such as home banking through web, SSL, SET, IPSEC, telnet, ftp, and user mobile situation.
