WTLS as secure protocol of WAP makes TLS that is used in wireless Intemet protocol for TCP security be appropriate for wireless environments. And purpose of WTLS is to provide safe and efficient services. WTLS protocol consists of 4 protocols(Handshake, ChangeCipherSpec, Alert, Application Data etc.). In this papers we analyze properties of Handshake protocol and procedures of establishing master secret in detail. And then we analyze securities against several attacker models with them for a basis. Also we propose new Handshake protocol that is secure against active attacker model and can provide various security services.

Recently, Gu and Xue proposed an improved secret handshakes scheme with unlinkability by modifying the Huang-Cao scheme. Their proposal not only solves security weakness in the Huang-Cao scheme but also is more efficient than previously proposed secret handshakes schemes. In this letter, we examine the correctness of Gu and Xue's security requirements and show that the adversary model is not correctly defined. We also show that the Gu-Xue scheme is not secure against the attacks under correctly defined adversary model.

In order to create security session, security keys are preconfigured between communication objects. For this purpose, Handshake Protocol exists. The pre-master secret key that is used in this process needs to interpreted by a server to create master secret key, whose process requires a big calculation, resulting in deteriorating system's transmission performance. Therefore, it is helpful in increasing transmission speed to reuse secret keys rather than to create them at every connection.

WPA2-PSK uses a 4-way handshake protocol based on a shared secret to establish a secure session between a client and an AP. It has various security problems such as eavesdropping attacks and the secure session establishment process is inefficient because it requires multiple interactions between client and AP. The WPA3 standard has recently been proposed to solve the security problem of WPA2, but it is a small improvement using the same 4-way handshake methodology. OAuth 2.0 token authentication is widely used on the web, which can be used to keep an authenticated state of a client for a long time by using tokens issued to an authenticated client. In this paper, we apply the dual-token based randomized token authentication technology to the Wi-Fi security protocol to achieve an efficient Wi-Fi security protocol by dividing initial authentication and secure session establishment. Once a client is authenticated and equipped with dual tokens issued by AP, it can establish secure session using them quickly with one message exchange over a non-secure channel.

Juliano Rizzo and Thai Duong, the authors of the BEAST attack [11, 12] on SSL, have proposed a new attack named CRIME [13] which is Compression Ratio Info-leak Made Easy. The CRIME exploits how data compression and encryption interact to discover secret information about the underlying encrypted data. Repeating this method allows an attacker to eventually decrypt the data and recover HTTP session cookies. This security weakness targets in SPDY and SSL/TLS compression. The attack becomes effective because the attacker is enable to choose different input data and observe the length of the encrypted data that comes out. Since Transport Layer Security (TLS) ensures integrity of data transmitted between two parties (server and client) and provides strong authentication for both parties, in the last few years, it has a wide range of attacks on SSL/TLS which have exploited various features in the TLS mechanism. In this paper, we will discuss about the CRIME and other versions of SSL/TLS attacks along with countermeasures, implementations. We also present direction for SSL/TLS attacks resistance in practice.
