  • A new conception of public-key cryptography MEPKC, Petri net based Multi-stage-Encryption Public-Key Cryptography, has been proposed in onder to guarantee stronger network communication security. Different from an ordinary public-key cryptography that opens only a single public key to the public, MEPKC opens a key-generator that can generate multiple encryption keys and uses these keys to encrypt a plain text to a cipher text stage by stage. In this paper, we propose the methods how to carry out the encryption operations. First, we describe how to design a hash function H that is used to conceal the encryption keys from attack. Then, given with a key-generator (a Petri net supposed to possess a large number of elementary T-invariants), we discuss how to randomly generate a series of encryption keys, the elementary T-invariants. Finally, we show how to use these encryption keys to encrypt a plain text to a cipher text by applying a private key cryptography, say DES.

  • The purposes of this study were to examine a tendency of kindergarten teachers' daily work performance and to explore their perceptions on the reality and efficiency of working hours. 273 public and private kindergarten teachers completed questionnaires. The findings of the study are as follows. First, kindergarten teachers carried out an average of 1.41 duties per a 30-minute segment, and there were some differences in their duties between public and private teachers. Second, as a key reason of their lack of preparation time for class, public teachers indicated much administrative work, whereas private teachers indicated many events and common work. In addition, for the work duties that require supporting staff, public teachers pointed out clerical work, whereas private teachers named event-related duties. Third, in terms of efficiency of their working hours, both public and private teachers highlighted excessive workload as a key obstacle; public teachers also indicated the shortage of supporting staff, while private teachers indicated many event-related duties and lack of directors' leadership. These findings imply that it is important to maintain an optimum level of workload for kindergarten teachers, to secure preparation time for class, to increase work efficiency, and to provide support specific to kindergarten types.

  • Cloud computer technology currently provides diverse services based on a comprehensive environment ranging from hardware to solution, network and service. While the target of services has been extended from institutions and corporations to personal infrastructure and issues were made about security problems involved with protection of private information, measures on additional security demands for such service characteristics are insufficient. This paper proposes a multi-session authentication technique based on the characteristics of SaaS (Software as a Service) among cloud services. With no reliable authentication authority, the proposed technique reinforced communication sessions by performing key agreement protocol safe against key exposure and multi-channel session authentication, providing high efficiency of performance through key renewal using optimzied key table. Each formed sessions have resistance against deprivation of individual confirmation and service authority. Suggested confirmation technique that uses these features is expected to provide safe computing service in clouding environment.

  • Recent developments in identity-based cryptography (IBC) have provided new solutions to problems related to the security of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). Although many proposals to solve problems related to the security of MANETs are suggested by the research community, there is no one solution that fits all. The interdependency cycle between secure routing and security services makes the use of IBC in MANETs very challenging. In this paper, two novel methods are proposed to eliminate the need for this cycle. One of these methods utilizes a key pool to secure routes for the distribution of cryptographic materials, while the other adopts a pairing-based key agreement method. Furthermore, our proposed methods utilize threshold cryptography for shared secret and private key generation to eliminate the "single point of failure" and distribute cryptographic services among network nodes. These characteristics guarantee high levels of availability and scalability for the proposed methods. To illustrate the effectiveness and capabilities of the proposed methods, they are simulated and compared against the performance of existing methods.

  • This paper deals with cryptography by applying RSA and Petri nets. Firstly, we introduce RSA cryptography and a Petri net based private-key cryptography. Then we propose a new public-key cryptography, Petri Net based Public-Key Cryptography dented as PNPKC, by taking the advantages of these two proposed cryptographys and give an example to show how to apply PNPKC. Finally, we do the comparison between RSA cryptography and PNPKC on security as well as computation order. As the results, the security of PNPKC is as strong as RSA cryptography and further the encryption and decryption of PNPKC are in average 210 times as fast as RSA cryptography from our experimental data.

  • At present, the smart grid has become one of the indispensable infrastructures in people's lives. As a commonly used communication method, wireless communication is gradually, being widely used in smart grid systems due to its convenient deployment and wide range of serious challenges to security. For the insecurity of the schemes based on large integer factorization and discrete logarithm problem in the quantum environment, an identity-based key management scheme for smart grid over lattice is proposed. To assure the communication security, through constructing intra-cluster and inter-cluster multi-hop routing secure mechanism. The time parameter and identity information are introduced in the relying phase. Through using the symmetric cryptography algorithm to encrypt improve communication efficiency. Through output the authentication information with probability, the protocol makes the private key of the certification body no relation with the distribution of authentication information. Theoretic studies and figures show that the efficiency of keys can be authenticated, so the number of attacks, including masquerade, reply and message manipulation attacks can be resisted. The new scheme can not only increase the security, but also decrease the communication energy consumption.

  • IoT devices are used in many areas to perform various roles and functions in a cloud environment. However, a method of access control that can stably control the IoT device has not been proposed yet. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical multi-level property access control scheme that can perform stable access of IoT devices used in a cluster environment. In order to facilitate the access of the IoT device, the proposed method not only provides the ID key (security token) unique to the IoT device by providing the IoT Hub, but also allows the IoT Hub to authenticate the X.509 certificate and the private key, So that the private key of the IoT device can not be seen outside the IoT device. As a result of the performance evaluation, the proposed method improved the authentication accuracy by 10.5% on average and the processing time by 14.3%. The overhead of IoT Hub according to the number of IoT attributes was 9.1% lower than the conventional method.

  • Although various home services are developed as increasing the number of home devices with wire and wireless connection, privacy infringement and private information leakage are occurred by unauthorized remote connection. It is almost caused by without of device authentication and protection of transmission data. In this paper, the devices' secret value are stored in a safe memory of a smartphone. A smartphone processes device authentication. In order to prevent leakage of a device's password, a shadow password multiplied a password by the private key is stored in a device. It is proposed mutual authentication between a smartphone and a device, and session key agreement for devices using recovered passwords on SRP. The proposed protocol is resistant to eavesdropping, a reply attack, impersonation attack.

  • The surge in use of networks has recently increased demands for cryptography. Cryptography, however, can cause various problems because of difficulty of key management. A lot of researchers have been concentrating on the key recovery technique to eliminate the reverse effect of using these kinds of security and to promote positive aspects of using it. They have suggested many key recovery techniques up to the present. we propose a mechanism as a solution, which are employed to reduce the time needed to reconnect SG and the host in Host-to-Gateway in VPNs supporting IPsec, in case they are disconnected. This new mechanism using KRFSH stores information at each session in advance so that users can recall the session information when needed to rebuild the tunnel between SG and the host in a VPN. As a result, the mechanism built into SG will solve the problems above in host-to-gateway VPNs using IPsec.
