  • In this paper, proposes Kerberos certification mechanism that improve certification service of PKINIT base that announce in IETF CAT Working Ggroup. Did to certificate other realm because search position of outside realm through DNS and apply X.509 directory certification system, acquire public key from DNS server by chain (CertPath) between realms by certification and Key exchange way that provide service between realms applying X.509, DS/BNS of PKINIT base. In order to provide regional services, Certification and key exchange between realms use Kerberos' symmetric method and Session connection used Directory service to connection X.509 is designed using an asymmetric method. Excluded random number ($K_{rand}$) generation and duplex encryption progress to confirm Client. A Design of Kerberos system that have effect and simplification of certification formality that reduce Overload on communication.

  • As the Internet technology becomes a major information infrastructure, an emerging problem is the tremendous increase of malicious computer intrusions. The present Intrusion Detection System (IDS) serves a useful purpose for detecting such intrusions, but the current situation requires more active response mechanism other than simple detection. This paper describes a multi-agent based tracing system against the intruders when the system is attacked. The focus of the study lies on the secure communication mechanism for the agent message communication. We have extended parameters on the KQML protocol, and apt)lied the public key encryption approach, The limitation might be the requirements of two-way authentication for every communication through the broker agent. This model ma)r not improve the efficiency, but it provides a concrete secure communication. Also this is one important factor to protect the agent and the tracing server during the tracing process.

  • IP 네트워크(공중망)에 새로운 네트워크 기술들의 결합, 예를 들면 IP-USN, IP-Mesh, IP-PLC 등의 이종 네트워크가 생겨나면서 이러한 네트워크를 안전하게 관리하기 위한 보안 기술의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 기존 IP 네트워크가 가지는 다양하고 견고한 보안 기술들이 이종 네트워크에 그대로 사용될 수 없으면서 생겨나는 문제 중 PKI 기반 인프라를 적용할 수 없다는 것이 가장 현실적이고 중요한 문제로 여겨지고 있다. 이러한 문제로 인해, 새로운 네트워크 기술들은 주로 내부에서 사용하는 대칭키 방식의 암호화, 복호화만을 정의하고 있다. 공개키 방식을 사용할 수 없는 가장 큰 이유는 인증기관에서 발급되는 인증서 중심의 인프라를 사용할 수 없기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서, 이종 네트워크 환경에서 비인증서 기반의 공개키를 활용하는 보안키 관리 메커니즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 방식은 신원기반 공개키 개념을 도입하여 적용하였으며, 디바이스간 인증을 위한 인증 티켓 방식 및 보안키의 유효범위를 정하고 이를 활용하여 보다 안전한 네트워크 환경을 구축할 수 있는 방안들을 제시하였다.

  • The main goal of VANETs is to improve the safety of all road users. Therefore, the accuracy and trustworthiness of messages transmitted in VANETs are essential, given that life may rely on them. VANETs are provided with basic security services through the use of public key infrastructure-based authentication. However, the trust of users is still an open issue in VANETs. It is important to prevent bogus message attacks from internal vehicles as well as protect vehicle privacy. In this paper, we propose a trust management scheme that ensures trust in VANETs while maintaining vehicle privacy. The trust scheme establishes trust between vehicles where a trust value is assigned to every vehicle based on its behavior and messages are accepted only from vehicles whose trust value is greater than a threshold, therefore, protecting VANETs from malicious vehicles and eliminating bogus messages. If a traffic event happens, vehicles upload event messages to the reachable roadside unit (RSU). Once the RSU has confirmed that the event happened, it announces the event to vehicles in its vicinity and records it into the blockchain. Using this mechanism, RSUs are prevented from sending fake or unverified event notifications. Simulations are carried out in the context of bogus message attacks to evaluate the trust scheme's reliability and efficiency. The results of the simulation indicate that the proposed scheme outperforms the compared schemes and is highly resistant to bogus message attacks.

  • As the Internet moves to mobile environment, one of the most serious problems for the security is to required a new security Protocol with safety and efficiency. To solve the problem. we Propose a new Protocol that reduces the communication franc and solves the problem associated with the private security keys supplied by the trusted third party. The protocol is a non-Interactive oblivious transfer protocol, based on the EIGamal public-key algorithm. Due to its Non-Interactive oblivious transfer protocol, it can effectively reduce communication traffic in server-client environment. And it is also possible to increase the efficiency of protocol through the mechanism that authentication probability becomes lower utilizing a challenge selection bit. The protocol complexity becomes higher because it utilizes double exponentiation. This means that the protocol is difficult rather than the existing discrete logarithm or factorization in prime factors. Therefore this can raise the stability of protocol.
