Nowadays, public cloud storage is gaining popularity and a growing number of users are beginning to use the public cloud storage for online data storing and sharing. However, how the encrypted data stored in public clouds can be effectively shared becomes a new challenge. Proxy re-encryption is a public-key primitive that can delegate the decryption right from one user to another. In a proxy re-encryption system, a semi-trusted proxy authorized by a data owner is allowed to transform an encrypted data under the data owner's public key into a re-encrypted data under an authorized recipient's public key without seeing the underlying plaintext. Hence, the paradigm of proxy re-encryption provides a promising solution to effectively share encrypted data. In this paper, we propose a new certificate-based proxy re-encryption scheme for encrypted data sharing in public clouds. In the random oracle model, we formally prove that the proposed scheme achieves chosen-ciphertext security. The simulation results show that it is more efficient than the previous certificate-based proxy re-encryption schemes.

In real life, we frequently use th proxy signatrue by delegating one's own privileges. It is necessary to distribute the data related to privilege delegation securely in order to use such a proxy signature in the Internet. However, inorder to use the secure proxy signature, we need to have some mechanism to prevent a proxy signer from misuse of privileges by applying proxy certificate and a privilege delegation mechanism to manage information with related to privilege delegarion. In addition, we have implemented the prototype to demonstrate the possible proxy signature service using proxy certificate.

In current e-commerce system, it happens that client's confidential information such as credit card numbers, pin numbers, or digital certificate may pass through a web proxy server or an altered proxy server without client's awareness. Even though the confidential information is encrypted and sent through SSL(Secure Sockets Layer) or TLS(Transport Layer Security) protocol, it can be exposed to the risk of sniffing by the digital certificate forgery at the proxy server, which is called the SSL MITM(Man-In-The-Middle) Proxy attack. In this paper, current credit card web-payment systems, which is weak at proxy information alternation attack, are analyzed. A resolution with certificate proxy server is also proposed to prevent the MITM attack.

Recently, mobile phones have been recognized as the most convenient type of mobile payment device. However, they have some security problems; therefore, mobile devices cannot be used for unauthorized transactions using anonymous data by unauthenticated users in a cloud environment. This paper suggests a mobile payment system that uses a certificate mode in which a user receives a paperless receipt of a product purchase in a cloud environment. To address mobile payment system security, we propose the transaction certificate mode (TCM), which supports mutual authentication and key management for transaction parties. TCM provides a software token, the transaction certificate token (TCT), which interacts with a cloud self-proxy server (CSPS). The CSPS shares key management with the TCT and provides simple data authentication without complex encryption. The proposed self-creating protocol supports TCM, which can interactively communicate with the transaction parties without accessing a user's personal information. Therefore, the system can support verification for anonymous data and transaction parties and provides user-based mobile payments with a paperless receipt.

It is X.509 certificate that use to offer authentication and delegation service in grid. Authentication service offers by X.509 user certificate, and delegation service offers by X.509 proxy certificate. However, in case of provide delegation service using X.509 poxy certificate, can not fulfill complicated delegation requirement of grid. In this paper, proposed delegation mechanism that is done restricted delegation, multiple delegation and light weight that delegation service that use existent X.509 proxy certificate does not have. In this paper, delegation service that proposed used SPKI certificate.

실생활에서 권한의 위임을 통한 대리서명은 일상적으로 널리 사용되고 있다. 이러한 대리서명을 온라인상에서 사용하기 위해서는 위임자의 권한위임장이 안전하게 유통되어야 하고 대리자의 권한 오남용을 막아야 한다. 이에 따라 IETF의 PKIX 워킹그룹에서는 위임인증서(proxy certificate)를 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 대리자의 권한의 오남용을 막기위해 위임제한 필드를 제안하였고, 위임 인증서의 서비스 가능성을 보이기 위한 프로토타입을 설계하고 구현하였다.

Kerberos authenticates clients using symmetric-key cryptography, and supposed to Oust other systems of the realm in distributed network environment. But, authentication and authorization are essential elements for the security. In this paper, we design an efficient and secure authentication/authorization mechanism by introducing the public/private-key and installing the proxy privilege server to Kerberos. In the proposed mechanism, to make a system more secure, the value of the session key is changed everytime using MAC(message authentication code) algorithm with the long-term key for user-authentication and a random number exchanged through the public key. Also, we reduce the number of keys by simplifying authentication steps. Proxy privilege server certifies privilege request of client and issues a privilege attribute certificate. Application server executes privilege request of client which is included a privilege attribute certificate. Also, a privilege attribute certificate is used in delegation. We design an efficient and secure authentication/authorization algorithm with Kerberos.

C. Gamage 등은 M. Mambo 의 대리 서명 방시과 Y. Zheng의 signcryption 방식을 이용하여 사용자가 상대 적으로 계산 능력이 뛰어난 서버에 의존하여 암호화 및 서명을 생성할 수 있는 proxy-signcryption 방식을 제안하였다 그러나 그들이 제안한 방식을 실제 응용에 적용할 경우 사용자가 proxy agent를 대신하여 정당한 proxy-signcryption을 생성할 수 있을 뿐만아니라 자신이 전송한 메시지에 대해 부인하는 경우 리를 판단할 수 없으므로 proxy agent를 보호 할 수 없다는 문제점이 있다 따라서 본 논문에서는 대리인 보호형 대리 서명 방식과 N. Asokan 의 S3(Server Supported Signnatures)를 이용하여 proxy agent를 보호할 수 있고 송신자 부인 봉쇄를 제공하여 실제 응용에 적용할 수 있는 proxy-signcryption 방식을 제안하고자 한다. 또한 본 논문에서 제안하는 proxy-signcryption 방식은 한국형 디지털 서명 표준안인 KCDSA(Korean Certificate-based Digital Signature Algorithm)를 이용한다.

Currently, the X.509 proxy certificate is widely used to delegate an entity's right to another entity in the computational grid environment. However it has two drawbacks: the potential security threat caused by intraceability of a delegation chain and the inefficiency caused by an interactive communication between the right grantor and the right grantee on the delegation protocol. To address these problems for computational grids, we propose a new delegation protocol without additional cost. We use an ID-based key generation technique to generate a proxy private key which is a means to exercise the delegated signing right. By applying the ID-based key generation technique, the proposed protocol has the delegation traceability and the non-interactive delegation property. Since the right delegation occurs massively in the computational grid environment, our protocol can contribute the security enhancement by providing the delegation traceability and the efficiency enhancement by reducing the inter-domain communication cost.

We suggest resource authorization system based on RBAC admitting someone to access resources. In existing grid environment, The authorization mechanism on user's resource is to give users an authority on the basis of DN(Distinguished Name) of proxy certificate and map file mapped in local system ID by one-to-one. In this case, it is difficulty in resource management such as each accounting management, memory resource, and disk resource, if the number of users, who want to use them is increased. To solve this problem, we specify the role of user's task in extension fields of his proxy certificate instead of the authorization mechanism of user's ID and propose resource authorization system being able to access his resource.
