Currently, various types of user authentication methods based on public certificates are used in domestic financial transactions. Such an authorized certificate method has a problem that a different security module must be installed every time a user connects an individual financial company to a web server. Also, the financial company relying on this authentication method has a problem that a new security module should be additionally installed for each financial institution whenever a next generation authentication method such as biometric authentication is newly introduced. In order to solve these problems, we propose an integrated authentication system that handles user authentication on behalf of each financial institution in financial transactions, and proposes an integrated authentication protocol that handles secure user authentication between user and financial company web server. The new authentication protocol is a modified version of OAuth2.0 that increases security and efficiency. It is characterized by performing a challenge-response protocol with a pre-shared secret key between the authentication server and the financial company web server. This gives users a convenient and secure Single Sign-On (SSO) effect.

In this paper, we present two verifier-based multi-party PAKE (password-authenticated key exchange) protocols. The shared key can be used for secure content transmission. The suggested protocols are secure against server compromise attacks. Our first protocol is designed to provide forward secrecy and security against known-key attacks. The second protocol is designed to additionally provide key secrecy against the server which means that even the server can not know the session keys of the users of a group. The suggested protocols have a constant number of rounds are provably secure in the standard model. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed protocols are the first secure multi-party PAKE protocols against server compromise attacks in the literature.

Password-based authentication key exchange (PAKE) protocols in the literature typically assume a password that is shared between a client and a server. PAKE has been applied in various environments, especially in the “client-server” applications of remotely accessed systems, such as e-banking. With the rapid developments in modern communication environments, such as ad-hoc networks and ubiquitous computing, it is customary to construct a secure peer-to-peer channel, which is quite a different paradigm from existing paradigms. In such a peer-to-peer channel, it would be much more common for users to not share a password with others. In this paper, we consider password-based authentication key exchange in the three-party setting, where two users do not share a password between themselves but only with one server. The users make a session-key by using their different passwords with the help of the server. We propose an efficient password-based authentication key exchange protocol with different passwords that achieves forward secrecy in the standard model. The protocol requires parties to only memorize human-memorable passwords; all other information that is necessary to run the protocol is made public. The protocol is also light-weighted, i.e., it requires only three rounds and four modular exponentiations per user. In fact, this amount of computation and the number of rounds are comparable to the most efficient password-based authentication key exchange protocol in the random-oracle model. The dispensation of random oracles in the protocol does not require the security of any expensive signature schemes or zero-knowlegde proofs.

Recently, remote user authentication schemes using smart cards has been researched to provide user privacy because of increasing interest and demands. Previously, provided authentication schemes were only concerned about providing user privacy against outside attackers, but the scheme. which guarantees user privacy against both a remote server and outside attackers, has been recently demanded because the user's information has leaked out through the service providers. When the remote server perceives a user doing a malicious act, the server should be able to trace the malicious user by receiving help from a trust agency. In this paper, we suggest a scheme which not only guarantees user privacy against both a remote server and outside attackers, but also provides traceable anonymity authentication.

An online game is a huge distributed system comprised of servers and untrusted clients. In such circumstances, cheaters may employ abnormal behaviors through client modification or network packet tampering. Client-side detection methods have the merit of distributing the burden to clients but can easily be breached. In the other hand, server-side detection methods are trustworthy but consume tremendous amount of resources. Therefore, this paper proposes a security reinforcement method which involves both the client and the server. This method is expected to provide meaningful security fortification while minimizing server-side stress.

With the explosive rapid expansion of computer using during the past few years, security has become a crucial issue for modem computer systems. Today, there are many intrusion detection systems (IDS) on the Internet. A variety of intrusion detection techniques and tools exist in the computer security community such as enterprise security management system (ESM) and system integrity checking tools. However, there is a potential problem involved with intrusion detection systems that are installed locally on the machines to be monitored. If the system being monitored is compromised, it is quite likely that the intruder will after the system logs and the intrusion logs while the intrusion remains undetected. In this project KIT-I, we adopt remote logging server (RLS) mechanism, which is used to backup the log files to the server. Taking into account security, we make use of the function of SSL of Java and certificate authority (CA) based key management. Furthermore, Support Vector Machine (SVM) is applied in our project to detect the intrusion activities.

UMSN (Ubiquitous Medical Sensor Network) is being used in u-Healthcare system of various medical facilities to identify objects and get information from sensors in real-time. RFID using radio frequency determines objects using Reader, which reads Tags attached to patients. However, there is a security vulnerability wherein Tag send its ID to illegal Reader because Tags always response to Readers request regarding of its Tag ID. In this paper, we propose Tag ID Classification Scheme to reduce Back-end Server traffic that caused by requests to authenticate between Readers and Tags that are attached to medical devices, patients, and sensors; To reduce security threats like eavesdropping and spoofing that sometimes occurred during authentication procedure. The proposed scheme specifies the patient category as a group based on patients Tag ID string. Only allowed Reader can perform authentication procedure with Back-end Server. As a result, we can reduce Back-end Server traffic and security threats.

DNS spoofing is an attack in which an attacker intervenes in the communication between client and DNS server to deceive DNS server by responding to a fake IP address rather than actual IP address. It is possible to implement a pharming site that hacks user ID and password by duplicating web server's index page and simple web programming. In this paper we have studied web spoofing attack that combines DNS spoofing and pharming site implementation which leads to farming site. We have studied DNS spoofing attack method, procedure and farming site implementation method for portal server of this university. In the case of Kyungsung Portal, bypassing attack and hacking were possible even though the web server was SSL encrypted and secure authentication. Many web servers do not have security measures, and even web servers secured by SSL can be disabled. So it is necessary that these serious risks are to be informed and countermeasures are to be researched.

정보통신기술의 발달로 인터넷상의 PKC를 사용한 전자거래가 활성화되었다. 이에 따라 실질적으로 Web Server나 Database Server에 접속하기 위한 접근통제의 방안으로 속성인증서에 대한 연구도 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 현재 제안되고 있는 CRL(Certificate Revocation List) 및 OCSP를 이용한 공개키인증서 검증방법은 속성인증서의 인증상태확인과 적용시킬 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 공개키인증서 검증방법인 OCSP 방법에 속성인증서 검증방법을 포함시킴으로서, 공개키인증서와 속성인증서간의 동기문제를 해결하고자 한다.
