There are some technologies such as USN, RFID, Home-network to advance the ubiquitous era. Those technologies embody Context-Awareness System. To Context-Awareness System is that human, objects and environment supply information with cable and wireless at real time. So private information, information privacy, a wide sense privacy will be faced on serious menace. In this article, I analyze threat of private information in Context-Awareness System under USN(ubiquitous Sensing Network) surroundings and present technology to protect private information. Each technology can apply subdivided protection province information privacy. I expect definition of information privacy, insight through technological presentation and total solution in this article.

Recently RFID system has been adopted in various fields rapidly. However, we should solve the problem of privacy invasion that can be occurred by obtaining information of RFID Tag without any permission for popularization of RFID system. To solve these problems, There is the Ohkubo et al.'s Hash-Chain Scheme which is the safest method. However, this method has a problem that requesting lots of computing process because of creasing numbers of Tag. Therefore We, suggest SP-Division algorithm satisfied with all necessary security of Privacy Protection Scheme and decreased in Tag Identification Time in this paper. And this paper implemented it in time standard finding the first key among the data devided into each nodes. The length of Hash-Chain holds 1000, and the total number of SPs increases 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000. Comparing tag identification time by the total number of SPs and the number of Nodes with single node, extending the number of nodes to 1, 2, 3 and 4, when the number of nodes is 2, 40% of Performance, when the number of nodes is 3, 56%, and when the number of nodes is 4, 71% is improved.

최근 RFID 시스템의 채택이 다양한 분야에서 빠르게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 RFID 시스템의 대중화를 위해서는 RFID 태그의 정보를 무단으로 획득함으로써 발생할 수 있는 프라이버시 침해 문제를 해결해야 한다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서 기존 연구들 중에서 가장 안전한 M. Ohkubo 등의 Hash-Chain 기법이 있다. 그러나 이 기법은 태그를 판별할 때 엄청난 태그 수의 증가로 인해 막대한 계산 능력을 요구하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 프라이버시 보호를 유지하면서 태그판별시간 절감을 위해서 그리드 환경으로의 이식과 노드별로 m/k개의 SP를 분할하는 균등분할 알고리즘을 적용한 태그 판별 처리 모델을 제안한다. 제안 모델을 그리드 환경에서 동시에 수행할 수 있다면 이상적인 경우 태그를 판별하는 시간은 1/k로 감소한다.

In today's hyper-competitive business environment, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is expected to enhance the operation efficiency of supplying chain management in both manufactures and retail industries. However, the widespread deployment of RFID tags may create new threats to user privacy, due to the powerful tracking capability of the tags. Many authentication protocols for RFID have been proposed. They are helpful preventing passersby being scanned to determine what articles they are carrying. However, most of them would not prevent the bigger physical tracking problem of RFID, especially when being tracked by the 'constellation' of products they carry. We proposed this RFID scheme to prevent these tracking problems.

The current excessive limitations to mobile RFID tags and readers make it impossible to apply present codes and protocols. The technology for information and privacy protection should be developed in terms of general interconnection among elements and their characteristics of mobile RFID in order to such technology that meets the RFID circumstances. In this paper, transplanting and extending security library for protecting mobile RFID information in secure mobile RFID terminal S/W platform system to support security application on the path of all data from RFID reader to application server.

The concept of Smart-Homes is becoming more and more popular. It is anticipated that Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) technology will play a major role in such environments. We can find many previously proposed schemes that focus solely on: authentication between the RFID tags and readers, and user privacy protection from malicious readers. There has also been much talk of a very popular RFID application: a refrigerator/bookshelf that can scan and list out the details of its items on its display screen. Realizing such an application is not as straight forward as it seems to be, especially in securely deploying such RFID-based applications in a smart home environment. Therefore this paper describes some of the RFID-based applications that are applicable to smart home environments. We then identify their related privacy and security threats and security requirements and also propose a secure approach, where RFID-tagged consumer items, RFID-reader enabled appliances (e.g., refrigerators), and RFID-based applications would securely interact among one another. At the moment our approach is just a conceptual idea, but it sheds light on very important security issues related to RFID-based applications that are beneficial for consumers.

RFID is core technology to lead ubiquitous computing, and attract the notice of the world. It also improves social transparency, creates employment, and invigorates the allied industries. However, The technical characteristic with RFID has some problems with security and privacy. The commercialization of RFID is delayed due to these problems. This paper introduces the technical method to find solutions about an invasion of privacy to be due to introduce RFID system. First, this method applies Hash-Chain proposed by M. Ohkubo and some other researchers. The more tags increase, the more it demands lots of computation time. We divide SPs equally to solve these problems. And then, We'll suggest solutions to shorten the identification time of tag by implementing SPs with multi nodes of Grid environment at the same time. This makes it possible to keep the privacy protection of RFID tag, and process RFID tag in real time at the same time.

Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is a method of remotely storing and retrieving data using small and inexpensive devices called RFID tags. In this paper we propose a proxy agent framework that uses a personal device for privacy enforcement and increased protection against eavesdropping, impersonation and cloning attacks. Using the proxy model a user decides when and where information carried in a tag will be released. In particular, the user can put tags under her/his control, authenticated requests, release tags, transfer them to new owners, and so on. In this paper, we analyses a new type of simple a framework for enhancing RFID security by means of a proxy, a personal device that assumes control of a user's tags.

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a next generation technology that will replace barcode. RFID can identify an object by reading ID inside a RFID tag using radio frequency. However, because a RFID tag replies its unique ID to the request of any reader through wireless communication, it is vulnerable to attacks on security or privacy through wiretapping or an illegal reader's request. The RFID authentication protocol has been studied actively in order to solve security and privacy problems, and is used also in tag search. Recently, as the number of tags is increasing in RFTD systems and the cost of data collection is also rising, the importance of effective tag search is increasing. This study proposed an efficient search method that solved through ta9 group the problem of large volume of database computation in Miyako Ohkubo's hash chain mechanism, which meets requirements for security and privacy protection. When we searched first the group of tags with access rate of 5 or higher in a database with 100,000 records, search time decreased by around 30%.
