Internet of Thing (IoT) and NFC (Near Field Communication) have got a good adaptable structure that it can be easily combined with any wireless network. Since IoT/NFC can be used to communicate wirelessly with all the transactions that can be done remotely without any physical connections. In this paper, we propose an enhanced secure IoT/NFC protocol based on LTE network that enhances the original security level provided by the LTE. Our approach is new in a sense that it covers LTE in contrast to old networks like GSM and 3G, which substantially treated in the literature. Moreover, both GSM and 3G have several drawbacks when they are combined with the NFC technology, which has potential weakness in confidentiality, integrity, and authentication. Hence our new approach will resolve the security of the new LTE system. We expect that our protocol will result in new secure applications for the smart phone markets.

Recently, the popularity of smart devices such as Wi-Fi and LTE has increased the use ratio of wireless dramatically. On the other hand, the use ratio of wired internet is decreasing. The IoT(Internet of Things) is not only for people but also for communication between people and things, and communication between things and things by connecting to a wireless without choosing a place. Along with the rapid spread of the IoT there is a growing concern about the threat of IoT security. In this paper, the proposed scheme is a efficiency group key agreement in IoT environment that guarantees secure communication among light-weight devices. The proposed scheme securely be able to communication with the group devices who share a group key, generated by own secret value and the public value. Such property is suitable to the environment which are required a local area and a group.

The use of Internet of Things(IoT) in smart cities and smart homes is essential. The security of the sensor nodes, which are the core of the IoT, is weak and hacking attacks are severe enough to have a fatal impact on real life. This research is conducted to improve the security of the Internet of Things by developing a lightweight secure communication protocol for the Internet of Things, and to build a safe Internet of Things environment suitable for the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution. It contributes to building a safe and convenient smart city and smart home by proposing key management and identifier development to increase the confidentiality of communication and the establishment of an Internet authentication system.

Recently, with increasing scale of internet of Things (IoT), a large amount of data are generated and various services using such data are emerging. Therefore, a protocol suitable for IoT environment that can efficiently process / transmit big data is needed. MQTT is a lightweight messaging protocol for IoT environment. Although MQTT protocol can use TLS to provide security, it has a problem in that handshake and packet overhead will increase when TLS is used. Therefore, this paper proposed as Secure_MQTT protocol. It can provide stronger security by using lightweight encryption algorithm for MQTT protocol.

As research on IT convergence continues, the scope of IoT (Internet of Things) services continues to expand. The IoT service uses a device suitable for the purpose. These IoT devices require an authentication function. In addition, in IoT services that handle important information such as personal information, security of transmission data is required. In this study, we implement a crypto key-based IoT network security system that can authenticate devices for IoT services and securely transmit data between devices. Through this study, IoT service can authenticate the device itself and maintain the confidentiality of transmitted data. However, since it is an IoT service, additional research on the application efficiency of the encryption algorithm is required.

Recently, the Internet of Things are developing in accordance with the technology of implementation in low-cost, small-size, low power consumption and smart sensor that can communicate using the internet. Especially, key management researches for secure information transmission based on the Internet of Things (IoT) are actively performing. But, Internet of Things(IoT) are uses sensor. Therefore low-power consumption and small-memory are restrictive condition. As a result, managing the key is difficult as a general security measure. However, The problem of secure key management is an essential challenge For the continuous development of the Internet of things. In this paper, we propose a key distribution and management technique in secure Internet of things. In the key generation and management stage, it satisfies the conditions and without physically constrained for IoT based communication.

The IoT(Internet of things) technology enable objects around user to be connected with each other for sharing information. To support security is the mandatory requirement in IoT because it is related to the disclosure of private information but also directly related to the human safety. However, it is difficult to apply traditional security mechanism into lightweight devices. This is owing to the fact that many IoT devices are generally resource constrained and powered by battery. PSK(Pre-Shared Key) based approach, which share secret key in advance between communication entities thereafter operate security functions, is suitable for light-weight device. That is because PSK is costly efficient than a session key establishment approach based on public key algorithm. However, how to safely set a PSK of the lightweight device in advance is a difficult issue because input/output interfaces such as keyboard or display are constrained in general lightweight devices. To solve the problem, we propose and develop a secure PSK configuration scheme for resource constrained devices in IoT.

With the development of IoT technology, terminals connected with IoT are being used. However, security incidents are occurring as IoT is applied to society as a whole. IoT security incidents can be linked to personal risk and social disruption. In this study, we extract the evidence of security breach in IoT device. Analyze IoT security breach environment and extract Hashing function to secure original integrity and integrity. Then, the Forensic evidence is extracted from the IoT security device to verify the integrity of the original and Forensic reports should be written and studied to be used as legal evidence.

With ICT technology develops, IoT environment is attracting attention. However, IoT devices have various CPU performance as much as various purpose of use. Some IoT devices use the cpu that doesn't support public key cryptogrphy or crypto acceleration. In this paper, we study Blockchain-based IoT Device Authentication Scheme that provides authentication, integirity and non-repudation through analysis of Lamport Hash-chain, Lamport Signature, Blockchain and existing Authentication protocols. The proposed scheme requires only simple hash operation in IoT devices and it can operate in low performance IoT device, thus ensuring secure authentication in IoT environment.

5G와 사물인터넷(IoT) 시대에 데이터의 크로스컴퓨팅은 연구, 의료, 금융, 민생 분야 등에 더 많은 지원을 할 수 있고 프라이버시 안전성이 중요해지고 있다. SMPC (Secure Multi-party Computation)은 서로 믿지 않는 참여자 간의 프라이버시 보호 시너지 컴퓨팅 문제를 해결하고, 데이터 수요자에게 원본 데이터를 누설하지 않는 범위 하에서의 다자간 컴퓨팅 능력을 제공한다. IoT 장치는 전력 소모와 지연에 제한을 받기 때문에 대부분의 장치가 여전히 경량화 보안 메커니즘에 속하고 IoT에서 트래픽의 데이터 통합관리가 어렵기 때문에 통신 중 신원인식과 데이터를 주고받는 단계에서 프라이버시 유출의 문제가 발생할 수 있고 심지어 DDOS공격, RelayAttack공격 등 사이버의 목적이 될 수도 있다. 본 논문에서 IoT 네트워크 데이터 통신 특징을 분석하고 동형 암호에 기반의 SMPC 연산 아키텍처를 제안한다. 제안하는 이키텍처에서 동형 암호를 사용함으로써 장치 데이터의 안전을 보장하는 동시에 전체 네트워크 안전성도 확보한다. SMPC 및 동형암호 기술의 지속적 발전에 따라 제안하는 아키텍처가 계속 개선할 잠재력이 있다.
