  • Medical records must be well protected because they are needed to care for the health of patients. For that reason, user authentication and medical data encryption are essential for the security of both wired and wireless Healthcare Information Systems (HIS). The main focus of this paper is on the analysis of the numerous possible attacks and the countermeasures to overcome these attacks in Mobile Healthcare Environment (MHE) with an appropriate security protocols. To draw a conclusion, this will propose why a healthcare architecture should establish a multi-layered defense against the risks.

  • Software architecture are High-level design decisions shaping a software system's components, structure, and interactions. It can be a blueprint for development, evolution, and ongoing maintenance. This research investigates the communication practices employed by software architects and developers to ensure adherence to the designed software architecture. It explores the factors influencing the selection of follow-up methods and the impact of follow-up frequency on successful implementation. Findings reveal that formalized follow-up procedures are not yet a ubiquitous element within the software development lifecycle. While electronic communication, particularly email, appears to be the preferred method for both architects and developers, physical and online meetings are utilized less frequently. Interestingly, the study suggests a potential confidence gap, with architects expressing concerns about developers' ability to faithfully implement the architecture. This may lead to architects providing additional clarification. Conversely, while most developers reported confidence in their software knowledge, overly detailed architecture documentation may pose challenges, highlighting the need for architects to consider alternative communication strategies. A key limitation of this study is the sample size, restricting the generalizability of the conclusions. However, the research offers valuable preliminary insights into the communication practices employed for architecture implementation, paving the way for further investigation with a larger and more diverse participant pool.

  • (Korea Information Security Agency) is designed by using VHDL to Implement hardware architecture It has been adopted by most of the security systems in Korea SEED Is designed to utilize the S-boxes and permutations that balance with the current computing technology It has the Feistel structure with 16 rounds The same procedure for data encryption and decryption makes possible an easy and practical hardware implementation. The primary functions used In SEED are F function and G function. This paper proposes an Iterative architecture of F function, a modified architecture of G function and an Iterative architecture of key scheduling algorithm. The designed SEED encrypts and decrypts exactly the test vectors It is expected to extend to various application fields If the design of control blocks Is added.

  • We already have seen many studies and articles about the methodology responding the security risks and threats. But we still have some controversial subjects to be settled. Now, we are living in the era that we should focus on how to use the security systems instead of how to make it. In this point of view, a company need to find out the answer for these questions, which security risks have to be handled in a corporate, which system is better for responding the security threats, and how we can build necessary security architecture in case of developing systems. In this article, we'd like to study on-site scenarios threatening the corporate assets, the limit on dealing with these threats, and how to consolidate the security events and information from enormous assets. Also, we'd like to search for the direction form the actual cases which have shown the desired effect from converging the assets and network informations.

  • A VPN is widely used in a communications environment which access is controlled to permit peer connections only within a defined community of interest. It is constructed through some form of partitioning of a common underlying communication medium, where this underlying communications medium provides services to the network on a non-exclusive basis. In this paper, we have analyzed a variety of architecture to implement Giga bps VPN system. The proposed architecture will satisfy the needs of clients who adopt Giga bps VPN system in the various environments.

  • In the age of smartphones, users accomplish their daily tasks using their smartphones due to the significant growth in smartphone technology. Due to these tremendous expansions, attackers are highly motivated to penetrate numerous mobile marketplaces with their developed malicious apps. Android has the biggest proportion of the overall market share when compared to other platforms including Windows, iOS, and Blackberry. This research will discuss the Android security features, vulnerabilities and threats, in addition to some existing protection mechanisms.

  • The spread of Internet and the appear of Downsizing, SI(System Integration) is chaning centralized computing to distributed computing. Also distributed computing is rapidly changing to Ubiquitous computing escape from hard wire connected network. CORBA(Common Object Request Broker Architecture) is a middleware that used for smoothness communication between application program and operation system in a different environment. However distributed computing environment is not safe from the danger, the attack like virus, worm is too intellectual and variety. In this paper, we design a new DB security model and suggest efficiency of it in Ubiquitous environment base on CSS(CORBA Security Service) that present ed from OMG(Object Management Group).

  • Authentication protocols for multi-server architectures have gained momentum in recent times due to advancements in computing technologies and associated constraints. Lu et al. recently proposed a biometrics and smartcards-based authentication scheme for multi-server environment. The careful analysis of this paper demonstrates Lu et al.'s protocol is susceptible to user impersonation attacks and comprises insufficient data. In addition, this paper proposes an improved authentication with key-agreement protocol for multi-server architecture based on biometrics and smartcards. The formal security of the proposed protocol is verified using the widely accepted AVISPA (Automated Validation of Internet Security Protocols and Applications) tool to ensure that our protocol can withstand active and passive attacks. The formal and informal security analysis, and performance analysis sections determines that our protocol is robust and efficient compared to Lu et al.'s protocol and existing similar protocols.

  • Internet network routing system is used to prevent spread and distribution of malicious data traffic. This study is based on analysis of diagnostic weakness structure in the network security domain. We propose an improved integrated multi-level protection domain for in the internal route of groupware. This paper's protection domain is designed to handle the malicious data traffic in the groupware and finally leads to lighten the load of data traffic and improve network security in the groupware. Infrastructure of protection domain is transformed into five-stage blocking domain from two or three-stage blocking. Filtering and protections are executed for the entire server at the gateway level and internet traffic route ensures differentiated protection by dividing into five-stage. Five-stage multi-level network security domain's malicious data traffic protection performance is better than former one. In this paper, we use a trust evaluation metric for measuring the security domain's performance and suggested algorithm.
