  • Key agreement protocols allow multi-parties exchanging public information to create a common secret key that is known only to those entities over an insecure network. Since Joux first published the pairing-based one round tripartite key agreement protocol, many authenticated protocols have been proposed. Unfortunately, many of them have been broken while others have been shown to be deficient in some desirable security attributes. In 2004, Cheng et al. presented two protocols aimed at strengthening Shim's certificate-based and Zhang et al.'s tripartite identity-based protocols. This paper reports that 1) In Cheng et al.'s identity-based protocol, an adversary can extract long-term private keys of all the parties involved; and 2) Cheng et al.'s certification-based protocol is weak against key integrity attacks. This paper suggests possible remedies for the security flaws in both protocols and then presents a modified Cheng et al.'s identity-based, one-round tripartite protocol that is more secure than the original protocol.

  • Counterfeit products have been a major concern in global market. With the emergence of RFID systems, to detect counterfeit products in supply chain is relatively easy. Many anti-counterfeiting techniques for products attached by RFID tag are proposed. Most of the previous anti-counterfeiting techniques are not considering the distribution of the counterfeit from a customer to a customer. Using the ownership transfer protocols we can prevent the counterfeit from being distributed on the supply chain as well as between the customers and the customers. The ownership transfer protocols must be modified for anti-counterfeiting because of the usage of the protocol. In this paper, we modify the ownership transfer protocol proposed by G. Kapoor and S. Piramuthu[1] to be able to detect the counterfeit and track and trace the products in the supply chain. Our proposed protocol consists of three phases: the products delivery phase, the products takeover phase, and the products sale phase. We show that our protocol is anti-counterfeiting as well as secure against the security attacks.

  • Recently, LEE et al. proposed an attribute-based authenticated key agreement protocol over home network, which aimed to support authentication and key agreement between user and home server. However, if the home server is attacked in the protocol, the effects are influenced to the overall home network components severly. Thereby, this paper proposes a new ticket-based authentication protocol using user attributes between user and home devices to solve the problem. The proposed protocol supports the various levels of security to user by diversifying the network accessibility depending on user attribute. Thereby, the protocol could support more secure home network services.

  • The RFID system is very useful in various fields such as the distribution industry and the management of the material, etc. However, the RFID system suffers from various attacks since it does not have a complete authentication protocol. Therefore, this paper propose the authentication protocol that used key server to resist various attacks including DoS(Denial of Service) attack. For easy implementation, the proposed protocol also uses CRC, RN16 generation function existing in EPCglobal class 1 gen2 protocol. This paper performed security analysis to prove that the proposed protocol is resistant to various attacks. The analytical results showed that the proposed protocol offered a secure RFID system.

  • In this paper, we present more efficient Protocol than that of Ford and Kaliski. We use RSA in the roaming protocol and it Plays decisive role to reduce the total time cost. We show that our protocol is safe from various attacks. We present the performance of our protocol and verify that This protocol needs fewer secure channel like SSL than other protocols.

  • Recently, Lee et al. proposed a delegation-based authentication protocol for secure and private roaming service in global mobility networks. In this paper, we show that the protocol cannot protect the privacy of an user even though the protocol provides the user anonymity. To prove the weakness, we show that the protocol cannot provide the unlinkability and also examine the weakness of the protocol caused by the lack of the unlinkability.

  • Internet of Things architecture connected to the Internet is a technology. However, Many paper research for the lightweight Protocol of IoT Environment. In these Paper excluded secure problem about protocol. So Light weight Protocol has weakness of secure in IoT environment. All of IoT devices need encryption algorithm and authentication message code for certain level of security. However, IoT environment is difficult to using existing security technology. For this reason, Studies for Lightweight IPsec is essential in IoT environment. For Study of Lightweight IPsec, We analyze existing protocols such as IPsec, 6LoWPAN for IEEE 802.15.4 layer and Lightweight IPsec based 6LoWPAN. The result is to be obtained for the lightweight IPsec protocols for IoT environment. This protocol can compatible with Internet network.

  • In this paper, we analyze the security vulnerability through the several attack scenarios for the MCR-MAP(Multi-Context RFID Mutual Authentication Protocol) proposed by Ahn et al. And we propose the secure mutual authentication protocol that improved a prior MCR-MAP. The suggested protocol uses the ID of the legal tag and the timestamp generated by the server, when the tag tries to authenticate. And when the tag creates the credential, we create the new secret key computing the XOR operation between the secret key shared with the server and the tag timestamp generated by the server. As a result, the proposed protocol provides the secure mutual authentication and then is safe to spoofing attack. Also it provides forward-secrecy and then is safe to offline brute-burst attack. In this paper, we compare and verify the security vulnerability of the prior and the proposed protocol through the security analysis.

  • In 2010, Pedro et al. proposed RFID distance bounding protocol based on WSBC cryptographic puzzle. This paper points out that Pedro et al.'s protocol not only is vulnerable to tag privacy invasion attack and location tracking attack because an attacker can easily obtain the secret key(ID) of a legal tag from the intercepted messages between the reader and the tag, but also requires heavy computation by performing symmetric key operations of the resource limited passive tag and many communication rounds between the reader and the tag. Moreover, to resolve the security weakness and the computation/communication efficiency problems, this paper also present a new RFID distance bounding protocol based on WSBC cryptographic puzzle that can provide strong security and high efficiency. As a result, the proposed protocol not only provides computational and communicational efficiency because it requires secure one-way hash function for the passive tag and it reduces communication rounds, but also provides strong security because both tag and reader use secure one-way hash function to protect their exchanging messages.

  • User authentication and key agreement are very important components to provide secure home network service. Although the TTA adopted the EEAP-PW protocol as a user authentication and key transmission standard, it has some problems including not to provide forward secrecy. This paper first provides an analysis of the problems in EEAP-PW and then proposes a new attribute-based authenticated key agreement protocol, denoted by EEAP-AK. to solve the problems. The proposed protocol supports the different level of security by diversifying network accessibility for the user attribute after the user attribute-based authentication and key agreement protocol steps. It efficiently solves the security problems in the EEAP-PW and we could support more secure home network service than the EEAP-AK.
