Recently, public certificates issued by nationally-recognized certification bodies have been abolished, and internet companies have issued their own common certificates as certification authority. The Electronic Signature Act was amended in a way to assign responsibility to Internet companies. As the use of a joint certificate issued by Internet companies as a certification authority is allowed, it is expected that the fraud damage caused by the theft of public key certificates will increase. We propose an authentication model that can be used in a security gateway that combines PKI with a blockchain with integrity and security. and to evaluate its practicality, we evaluated the security of the authentication model using Sugeno's hierarchical fuzzy integral, an evaluation method that excludes human subjectivity and importance degree using Delphi method by expert group. The blockchain-based joint certificate is expected to be used as a base technology for services that prevent reckless issuance and misuse of public certificates, and secure security and convenience.

With the Development of Information Technology, Security is becoming very Important. Existing Security Systems are Mostly Expensive and Not Easy to Implement, and are Also very Complex when using Biometric Information. In this paper, We try to solve this Problem by Implementing a Low cost Internet based Security Terminal Using Fingerprint and Face Image. To Implement a Low-cost Security System, a Fingerprint Scanner and a Camera are installed in Raspberry pi, and the Scanned Image is encrypted with the AES-256 Algorithm and Transmitted to Cloud. Through This Study, We confirmed the Possibility of the Proposed System in view of Authentication, Cost Reduction, Security and Scalability.

Intellgent Vehles network capabilities can cause a lots of security issues such as data hacking, privacy violation, location tracking and so on. Some possibilities which raise a breakdown or accident by hacking vehicle operation data are on the increase. In this paper, we propose a security module which has user authentication and encryption functionalities and can be used for vehicle network system.

Securing user authentication and transaction continuation is very critical in mobile banking. Malicious software, which is installed in user's smart phone, can either steal user's password or induce user to confirm manipulated transaction by handling transaction resource. In this paper, we propose schemes, that are aimed to secure user's password or to secure transaction confirmation, based on the security and usability analysis of existing schemes.

In this paper we show that a dynamic ID authentication scheme using smart cards proposed by Tsai et al. is not secure against DoS attack and insider attack. Further we claim that their scheme may raise a security problem when a user changes his/her password. Then we come up with a security-enhanced version only with small additional computational cost. Our scheme is based on the security of cryptographic hash function and the infeasibility assumption of discrete logarithm problem. In addition, we provide details of security and computational cost analysis.

In this paper, we describe a secure cluster-routing protocol based on a multi-layer scheme in ad hoc networks. We propose efficient protocols, Authentication based on Multi-layer Clustering for Ad hoc Networks (AMCAN), for detailed security threats against ad hoc routing protocols using the selection of the cluster head (CH) and control cluster head (CCH) using a modification of cluster-based routing ARCH and DMAC. This protocol provides scalability of Shadow Key using threshold authentication scheme in ad hoc networks. The proposed protocol comprises an end-to-end authentication protocol that relies on mutual trust between nodes in other clusters. This scheme takes advantage of Shadow Key using threshold authentication key configuration in large ad hoc networks. In experiments, we show security threats against multilayer routing scheme, thereby successfully including, establishment of secure channels, the detection of reply attacks, mutual end-to-end authentication, prevention of node identity fabrication, and the secure distribution of provisional session keys using threshold key configuration.

As communication is becoming increasingly prevalent and especially communication architecture is more relying on the open standard communication protocols, the security issues become major concerns. In this paper we consider possible cyber attacks in the applications based on the current distribution communication architecture, and then derive the security goals. Next we propose how the security algorithms can be adapted to achieve these security goals. We intend to adapt the most efficient ways of secure message exchange, taking the resource-constrained FRTUs into account Finally we show some experiments to validate the protocols.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have many applications and are deployed in a wide variety of areas. They are often deployed in potentially adverse or even hostile environment so that there are concerns on security issues in these WSNs. Recently, an anonymous user authentication and key agreement scheme (AUAKAS) was proposed based on symmetric cryptosystem in WSNs. It is claimed in AUAKAS that it assures security against different types of attacks including impersonation attacks. However, this paper shows that AUAKAS does not cope from user impersonation attack and gateway impersonation attack from the legally registered user on the gateway. The security analysis could guide the required features of the security scheme to be satisfied.

The existing electronic transaction protocol uses a cryptography algorithm that is not suitable for mobile environment because of limited memory and process ability. In this paper, we propose an efficient transaction protocol suitable for mobile embedded system. The proposed protocol reduces computation and process time by using ID-based cryptography algorithm and ECC (elliptic curve cryptosystem). It uses vendor authentication only in the first transaction, and from the second transaction, it requires transaction after authentication with session created by applying ECC technique. Therefore, the creation number of authentication for the vendor can be reduced from n to one. And it reduces process time because it provides the same security with 160 bits as with 1024 bits of RSA.

Session initiation protocol (SIP) is a kind of powerful and common protocols applied for the voice over internet protocol. The security and efficiency are two urgent requirements and admired properties of SIP. Recently, Hamed et al. proposed an efficient authentication and key agreement scheme for SIP. However, we demonstrate that Hamed et al.'s scheme is vulnerable to de-synchronization attack and cannot provide anonymity for users. Furthermore, we propose an improved and efficient authentication and key agreement scheme by using elliptic curve cryptosystem. Besides, we prove that the proposed scheme is provably secure by using secure formal proof based on Burrows-Abadi-Needham logic. The comparison with the relevant schemes shows that our proposed scheme has lower computation costs and can provide stronger security.
