In this paper, we design an authentication model based mobile PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). The authentication mood consists of Root-CA Home-network agent and Foreign-network agent. CA will going to gave the delegation ticket to Home-Agent or Foreign-Agent when they request. The authentication mode information security is various characteristic more then high speed, mobile network and low cost more then previous structure of assure information security.

In this paper, we analyze vulnerabilities in a remote authentication protocol using smartcards which was proposed by Bindu et al. and propose an improved scheme. The proposed scheme can prevent from restricted replay attack and denial of service attack by replacing time stamp with random number. In addition, this protocol can guarantee user anonymity by transmitting encrypted user's ID using AES cipher algorithm. The computational load in our protocol is decreased by removing heavy exponentiation operations and user efficiency is enhanced due to addition of password change phase in which a user can freely change his password. Furthermore, we really implement the proposed authentication protocol using a STM smartcard and authentication server. Then we prove the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed remote authentication system.

This paper proposes the design of a security-enhanced RFID authentication protocol which meets the privacy protection for tag bearers. The protocol which uses AES(Advanced Encryption Standard) cipher algorithm is based on a three-way challenge response authentication scheme. In addition, three different types of protocol packet formats are also presented by extending the ISO/IEC 18000-3 standard for realizing the security-enhanced authentication mechanism in RFID system environment. Through the comparison of security, it was shown that the proposed scheme has better performance in user data confidentiality, Man-in-the-middle replay attack, and replay attack, and forgery resistance, compared with conventional some protocols. In order to validate the proposed protocol, a digital Codec of RFID tag is also designed based on the protocol. This Codec has been described in Verilog HDL and also synthesized using Xilinx Virtex XCV400E device.

Cognitive radio networks (CRNs) offer the promise of intelligent radios that can learn from and adapt to their environment. CRN permits unlicensed users to utilize the idle spectrum as long as it does not introduce interference to the primary users due to the Federal Communications Commission's recent regulatory policies. Thereby, the security aspects in CRNs should be different with the other networks. The purpose of this paper is to devise a new delegation-based authentication protocol (NDAP) by extracting out the security aspects for unlicensed user authentication over CRNs from Tsai et al's delegation-based authentication protocol (TDAP). First of all, we will provide security analyses on the TDAP and set design goal for unlicensed user authentication. Then, we will propose a NDAP as a remedy mechanism for the TDAP and a new protocol for CRNs. The NDAP could be used as a security building block for the CRNs and various convergence applications.

Mobile Ad-hoc networks have various implementation constraints such as infrastructure-free, no trusted authority, node mobility, and the limited power and small memory of mobile device. And just like wired networks, various security issues such as authentication, confidentiality, integrity, non-repudiation, access control, availability and so on have been arisen in mobile Ad-hoc networks. But we focus on authentication of these security issues because it is quitely affected by the characteristics of networks. In this paper, we propose the authentication protocol that can limit the size of certificate repository as $log_2N$ and assures to make a trusted certificate path from one node to another, adopting the concept of Hamming distance. Particularly, our protocol can construct a trusted certificate path in spite of decreasing or increasing the number of nodes in mobile Ad-hoc network.

In order to block the access of the information in the smartphone of a user by other users, it is checked if the current user is the owner or not in the smartphone authentication process, whenever a user begins to use a smartphone. This makes smartphone users in front of frequent smartphone authentications, which leads significant inconvenience to them. Because of such inconvenience, users tend not to use the smartphone authentication anymore. Finally, their smartphones become very vulnerable against malicious access. This paper proposes a progressive authentication method on the android-platform in order to solve the problem described above. With the proposed method, smartphones can identify relevant risks based on users' past experiences and determine whether an authentication is needed. Because authentication occurs only when the identified risk level is high, it can achieve both a high-level of security in the high-level risk situation and user convenience in the low-level risk situation.

A node of mobile IPv6 moving foreign networks needs authentication process to support right services against from security threat. AAA is a trust infrastructure that authenticates, authorizes, and accounts nodes receiving a network service. And Mobile IPv6 Working Group recommends use of AAA infrastructure to authenticate mobile nodes. Event though AAA infrastructure provides strong authentication functions, it should exchange a lot of messages to authenticate mobile nodes every movement. The exchange of lots of messages causes latency and it is interfered with realization of real-time communication. This paper proposes an authentication method of improved speed using hash value of mobile node to reduce authentication latency. Directly after movement, a mobile node applying a Proposed method uses extended existing security authentication for a while and deletes the establishment latency of new security authentication. Performance evaluation of a proposed method verifies the efficiency through the analysis of cost comparison with other methods. The conclusion of performance evaluation is that the proposed method gets more 25% performance improvement than a general method when a mobile node moves another subnet.

Recently, with rapid advances of mobile devices such as smart phone and wireless networking, a number of services using mobile device based wireless network have been explosively increasing. From the viewpoint of security, because wireless network is more vulnerable than wired network, strong security is required in wireless network. On the contrary, the security for mobile devices has to be efficient due to the restrictions of battery powered mobile device such as low computation, low memory space and high communication cost. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an efficient authentication scheme with mobile devices in wireless network environment. The proposed scheme satisfies security requirements for the service using mobile device and it is suitable in wireless network environment.

With the growth of financial industry with smartphone, interest on user authentication using smartphone has been arisen in these days. There are various type of biometric user authentication techniques, but gait recognition using accelerometer sensor in smartphone does not seem to develop remarkably. This paper suggests the method of user authentication using accelerometer sensor embedded in smartphone. Specifically, calibrate the sensor data from smartphone with 3D-transformation, extract features from transformed data and do principle component analysis, and learn model with using gaussian mixture model. Next, authenticate user data with confidence interval of GMM model. As result, proposed method is capable of user authentication with accelerometer sensor on smartphone as a high degree of accuracy(about 96%) even in the situation that environment control and limitation are minimum on the research.
