  • Biometric authentication has become an essential part of modern-day security systems, especially in financial institutions like banks. A face recognition-based ATM is a biometric authentication system, that uses facial recognition technology to verify the identity of bank account holders during ATM transactions. This technology offers a secure and convenient alternative to traditional ATM transactions that rely on PIN numbers for verification. The proposed system captures users' pictures and compares it with the stored image in the bank's database to authenticate the transaction. The technology also offers additional benefits such as reducing the risk of fraud and theft, as well as speeding up the transaction process. However, privacy and data security concerns remain, and it is important for the banking sector to instrument solid security actions to protect customers' personal information. The proposed system consists of two stages: the first stage captures the user's facial image using a camera and performs pre-processing, including face detection and alignment. In the second stage, machine learning algorithms compare the pre-processed image with the stored image in the database. The results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of using face recognition for ATM authentication, which can enhance the security of ATMs and reduce the risk of fraud.

  • Though authentication using biometric techniques has conveniences for people, security problems like the leakage of personal bio-information would be serious. Even if cancelable biometric is a good solution for the problems, only a few biometric authentication scheme with cancelable feature has been published. In this paper, we suggest a face authentication scheme with two security factors: password and face image. Using matching algorithm in the permuted domain, our scheme is designed to be cancelable in the sense that templates that is composed of permutation and weight vector can be changed freely.

  • Trusted channel provides a means of secure communication and it includes security services such as confidentiality, authentication, and so on. This paper describes the implementation of trusted channel between secure operating systems that integrates access control mechanisms with FreeBSD kernel code[1]. The trusted channel we developed offers confidentiality an4 message authentication for network traffic based on the destination address. It is implemented in the kernel level of IP layer and transparent to users.

  • In 2011, Das proposed an effective biometrics-based remote user authentication scheme using smart cards that can provide strong authentication and mutual authentication, while eliminating the security drawbacks of Li-Hwang's scheme. In this paper, we have shown that Das's scheme is still insecure against several attacks and does not provide mutual authentication. Also, we proposed the enhanced scheme to overcome these security weaknesses, even if the secret information stored in the smart card is revealed. As a result of security analysis, the enhanced scheme is secure against user impersonation attack, server masquerading attack, off-line password guessing attack, and insider attack. And we can see that the enhanced scheme provides mutual authentication between the user and the server.

  • A biometric hardware security module is a physical device that comes in the form of smartcard or some other USB type security token is composed with biometric sensor and microcontroller unit (MCU). These modules are designed to process key generation and electronic signature generation inside of the device (so that the security token can safely save and store confidential information, like the electronic signature generation key and the biometric sensing information). However, the existing model is not consistent that can be caused by the disclosure of an ID and password, which is used by the existing personal authentication technique based on the security token, and provide a high level of security and personal authentication techniques that can prevent any intentional misuse of a digital certificate. So, this paper presents a model that can provide high level of security by utilizing the biometric security token and Public Key Infrastructure efficiently, presenting a model for privacy preserving personal authentication that links the biometric security token and the digital certificate.

  • In this paper, the Client-Server authentication system is proposed and implemented using the smart card on the internet. Based on the MPCOS-3DES smart card manufactured by GEMPLUS, three phases of authentication using the challenge-response mechanism are performed, which includes user-card authentication, client-server authentication, and card-server authentication.

  • This paper is proposed Hadoop security protocol to protect a reply attack and impersonation attack. The proposed hadoop security protocol is consists of user authentication module, public key based data node authentication module, name node authentication module, and data node authentication module. The user authentication module is issued the temporary access ID from TGS after verifing user's identification on Authentication Server. The public key based data node authentication module generates secret key between name node and data node, and generates OTKL(One-Time Key List) using Hash-chain. The name node authentication module verifies user's identification using user's temporary access ID, and issues DT(Delegation Token) and BAT(Block Access Token) to user. The data node authentication module sends the encrypted data block to user after verifing user's identification using OwerID of BAT. Therefore the proposed hadoop security protocol dose not only prepare the exposure of data node's secret key by using OTKL, timestamp, owerID but also detect the reply attack and impersonation attack. Also, it enhances the data access of data node, and enforces data security by sending the encrypted data.

  • D-MAC protocol is used convergence network, which is designed to connect wireless link between things. This protocol is supported to local data exchange and aggregation among neighbor nodes, and distributed control packet from sink to sensor node. In this paper, we analysis about efficiency of power consumption according to whether or not security authentication of D-MAC in convergence network. If authentication scheme is applied to MAC communication, it is related to power consumption of preamble whether or not with and without authentication process. It is reduced to energy consumption against denial attack of service, when it is applied to authentication. Future work will take the effort to deal with security authentication scheme.

  • Password-based authentication schemes have been widely adopted in order to protect resources from unauthorized access. In 2008, Liu et al. proposed a new mutual authentication scheme using smart cards which can withstand the forged attack. In this paper, author has proven that Liu et al.'s scheme is still vulnerable to the various attacks by analyzing the security of their scheme. This paper introduces an enhanced scheme to overcome these security weakness and to provide mutual authentication between the user and the server, even if the secrete information stored in the smart card is revealed by an attacker. The comparative result from the security analysis demonstrates that the proposed scheme is more secure against the possible attacks than Liu et al.'s scheme.

  • Cloud computing is an emerging business model popularized during the last few years by the IT industry. Providing "Everything as a Service" has shifted many organizations to choose cloud-based services. However, some companies still fear shifting their data to the cloud due to issues related to the security and privacy. The paper suggests a novel Trust based Mutual Authentication Mechanism using Secret P-box based Mutual Authentication Mechanism (TbMAM-SPb) on the criticality of information. It uses a particular passcodes from one of the secret P-box to act as challenge to one party. The response is another passcode from other P-box. The mechanism is designed in a way that the response given by a party to a challenge is itself a new challenge for the other party. Access to data is provided after ensuring certain number of correct challenge-responses. The complexity can be dynamically updated on basis of criticality of the information and trust factor between the two parties. The communication is encrypted and time-stamped to avoid interceptions and reuse. Overall, it is good authentication mechanism without the use of expensive devices and participation of a trusted third party.
