The Semantic Web is leading us to a world of information sharing by enabling distributed knowledge aggregation and creation. RDF is the foundations of the Semantic Web. For secure Semantic web we need to secure RDF as well. Unauthorized access to an RDF document can change or damage its semantics or manipulate the relations between resources. This article includes the study of RDF security issues and analysis of the existing solutions. After finding limitations of existing solution, a hybrid approach has been proposed.

By the dependence on Web from popularization of internet and increasing number of users, web services capability and security problem of communication is becoming a great issue. Existing web services technology decrease the capability of web application server by limiting the number of synchronous client, decreasing the processing load and increasing average response time. The encryption process to secure communication and the early expense of handshake decrease transmission speed and server capability by increasing the calculation time for connecting. Accordingly, this paper executes an encryption procedure by elliptical encryption algorithm to satisfy secure demands, improve the overload of server for web services and get reliability and security of web server architecture and proposes an improved mobile web sever which provides better ability and the techniques for deferred processing.

This paper developed a secure web-based digital notary system. The system conforms to international standards, and gives users very good accessibility to it. The technologies and the application systems for timestamp-related services are not yet popularized, but they are potentially meaningful to many kinds of areas such as ecommerces, digital right managements, and internet mail systems. The digital notary system uses the timestamp requests and responses which conforms to rfc 3161. The system supports secure communication between web-based notary server and its clients by using SSL(Secure Socket Layer), and use nonces for prevention of replay attacks.

P3P(Platform for Privacy Preference) that is used in the World Wide Web is a standard to define and negotiate policies about definition, transmission, collection, and maintenance of personal information. Current P3P standard provides methods that define client personal information protection policy and P3P policy associated with web server. It also provides a method that compares these two policies. The current P3P standard, however, does not handle detail functions for safe transmission of the personal information and data. Also, it does not handle problems that can be induced by the detail functions. In this paper, in order to solve these problems, we propose a Secure P3P(S-P3P) protocol, which is a security protocol for the current P3P standard, offers mutual authentication between the web server and the client, and guarantees integrity and confidentiality of the messages and data. Furthermore, a S-P3P protocol provides non-repudiation on transmission and reception of personal information that is transmitted from the client to the web server.

We implement the PBSM (Protocol-Based Security Module) system which guarantees the secure data transmission under web circumstances. There are two modules to implement for the PBSM architecture. One is Web Server Security Module (WSSM) which is working on a web server, the other is the Winsock Client Security Module (WSCSM) which is working on a client. The WSCSM security module decrypts the encrypted HTML document that is received from the security web server The decrypted HTML document is displayed on the screen of a client. The WSSM module contains the encryption part for HTML file and the decryption part for CGI (Common Gateway Interface). We also implement the proposed idea at the web system.

We propose the PBSM(Protocol-Based Security Module) system which guarantees the secure data transmission under web environments. There are two modules in the PBSM architecture. One is Web Server Security Module(WSSM) which is working on a web server, the other is the Winsock Client Security Module(WSCSM) which is working on a client. The WSCSM security module decrypts the encrypted HTML document that is received from the security web server. The decrypted HTML document is displayed on the screen of a client. The WSSM module contains the encryption function for HTML file and the decryption function for CGI(Common Gateway Interface). The formal analysis methodology is imported from format theory for analyzing the data flow of the PBSM system. The formal analysis methodology is based on the order theory.

As the most common application development of software development time, error-free quality, adaptability to frequent maintenance, such as the need for large and complex software challenges have been raised. When developing web applications to respond to software reusability, reliability, scalability, simplicity, these quality issues do not take into account such aspects traditionally. In this situation, the traditional development methodology to solve the same quality because it has limited development of new methodologies is needed. Quality of applications the application logic, data, and architecture in the entire area as a separate methodology can achieve your goals if you do not respond. In this study secure coding, the big issue, web application factors to deal with security vulnerabilities, web application architecture, design procedure is proposed. This proposal is based on a series of ISO/IEC9000, a web application architecture design process.

The HTTP does not support continuity for browser-server interaction between successive visits or a user due to a stateless feature. Cookies were invented to maintain continuity and state on the Web. Because cookies are transmitted in plain and contain text-character strings encoding relevant information about the user, the attacker can easily copy and modify them for his undue profit. In this paper, we design a secure cookies scheme based on X.509 public key certificate for solving these security weakness of typical web cookies. Our secure cookies scheme provides not only mutual authentication between client and server but also confidentiality and integrity of user information. Additionally, we implement our secure cookies scheme and compare it to the performance with SSL(Secure Socket Layer) protocol that is widely used for security of HTTP environment.

Login process uses both ID and password information to authenticate someone and to permit its access privilege on system. However, an attacker can get those ID and password information by using existing packet sniffing or key logger programs. It cause privacy problem as those information can be used as a hacking and network attack on web server and web e-mail system. Therefore, a more secure and advanced authentication mechanism should be required to enhance the authentication process on existing system. In this paper, we propose a multi-factor authentication process by using software form of secure card system combined with existing ID/Password based login system. Proposed mechanism uses a random number generated from the his/her own handset with biometric information. Therefore, we can provide a one-time password function on web login system to authenticate the user using multi-factor form. Proposed scheme provide enhanced authentication function and security because it is a 'multi-factor authentication mechanism' combined with handset and biometric information on web login system.

It is required to design and implement secure web applications to provide safe web services. For this reason, there are several scoring frameworks to measure vulnerabilities in web applications. However, these frameworks do not classify according to seriousness of vulnerability because these frameworks simply accumulate score of individual factors in a vulnerability. We rate and score vulnerabilities according to probability of privilege acquisition so that we can prioritize vulnerabilities found in web applications. Also, our proposed framework provides a method to score all web applications provided by an organization so that which web applications is the worst secure and should be treated first. Our scoring framework is applied to the data which lists vulnerabilities in web applications found by a web scanner based on crawling, and we show the importance of categorizing vulnerabilities according to privilege acquisition.
