The pattern matching part of Intrusion Detection System based on misuse-detection mechanism needs much processing time and resources, and it has become a bottleneck in system performance. Moreover, it derives denial-of-service attack. In this paper, we propose (1) framework architecture that is strong against denial-of-service attack and (2) efficient pattern matching method especially for web server system. By using both of these 2 methods, we can maintain web server system efficiently secure against attacks including denial-of-service.

A multi-server architecture has been proposed to increase the efficiency of resources due to the rapid growth of computer networks and service providing servers. The smartcard-based authentication protocol in the multi-server environments has been continuously developed through various studies. Recently, Chun-Ta Li et al proposed an authentication protocol that solves Xiong Li el al's authentication protocol vulnerability to user impersonation attack and session key disclosure attack. However, Chun-Ta Li et al's authentication protocol has a problem with user impersonation in the vulnerability analysis and has an unsuitable authentication process. Therefore, this paper proposes a smartcard-based authentication protocol in the multi-server environments that solves the denial of service attack and replay attack vulnerabilities of the authentication protocol proposed by Xiong Li et al.

With the increasing of aging population, a lot of researches on monitoring systems for solitary senior citizens are under study. In general, a monitoring system provides a monitoring service by computing the information of vision, sensors, and measurement values on a server. Design considering data security is essential because a risk of data leakage exists in the structure of the system employing the server. In this paper, we propose a intelligent monitoring system for solitary senior citizens with vision-based security architecture. The proposed system protects privacy by ensuring high security through an architecture that blocks communication between a camera module and a server by employing an edge AI module. The edge AI module was designed with Verilog HDL and verified by implementing on a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). We tested our proposed system on 5,144 frame data and demonstrated that a dangerous detection signal is generated correctly when human motion is not detected for a certain period.

With the explosive growth of computer networks, many remote service providing servers and multi-server network architecture are provided and it is extremely inconvenient for users to remember numerous different identities and passwords. Therefore, it is important to provide a mechanism for a remote user to use single identity and password to access multi-server network architecture without repetitive registration and various multi-server authentication schemes have been proposed in recent years. Recently, Tsaur et al. proposed an efficient and secure smart card based user authentication and key agreement scheme for multi-server environments. They claimed that their scheme satisfies all of the requirements needed for achieving secure password authentication in multi-server environments and gives the formal proof on the execution of the proposed authenticated key agreement scheme. However, we find that Tsaur et al.'s scheme is still vulnerable to impersonation attack and many logged-in users' attack. We propose an extended scheme that not only removes the aforementioned weaknesses on their scheme but also achieves user anonymity for hiding login user's real identity. Compared with other previous related schemes, our proposed scheme keeps the efficiency and security and is more suitable for the practical applications.

If existing system need to expand security part, the security was established after paying much cost, processing of complicated installation and being patient with inconvenience at user's view because of closed structure. In this thesis, those defects could be overcome by using open security tools and constructing security server, which is firewall of 'bastion' form including proxy server, certification server and so on. Also each security object host comes to decide acceptance or denial where each packet comes from, then determines security level each hosts. Precisely it is possible choosing the packets from bastion host or following at the other policies. Although an intruder enter into inside directly, it is constructed safely because encryption algorithm is applied at communication with security object host. This thesis suggests more flexible, independent and open security system, which improves existing security through systematic linkage between system security and network security.

Recently, due to the open architecture of the internet and wide spread of internet users, the cyber terror threatens to the network\`s weak point are tending grow. Until now, information security solutions are passive on security host and particular security system. This passive information security solution is weak from the attacks through the networks connected worldwide internet systems, and has limitation on the defense against cyber terror attacks. Therefore, network level integrated security function must be provided. In this paper, we consider technology limitations on the information security problems and its environment. Then we present the architecture and functions of policy-based information security services for network level active information security function. This paper also includes design of target system, which provide information security services. Finally, we discuss network level system deployment direction and discuss with Network Security Simulation.

The damage caused by information spill, forgery, falsification, and deletion by cyber infringement in educational institutions and universities is very large. In this study, we analyzed the types, causes, and problems of cyber infringement in educational administrative institutions and universities. As a result, administrative, physical and technical information protection activities were weak. In this paper, we propose a security enhancement method for each domain by dividing them into Internet zone, network-neutral zone (DMZ: Demilitarized Zone), general server zone, internal server zone (Server Farm), and user zone so that these vulnerabilities can be easily identified, supplemented or security enhanced. In addition, we have proposed a method to apply security information system architecture and information protection technology correctly for educational administration institutions and universities. This study is meaningful not to provide conceptual guidance but to suggest specific action and procedure oriented security management plan.

This paper describes the designs and the implementations of two H/W IPSec Systems, look-aside and inline, on TOE (Transport Offloading Engine). These systems aim for guaranteeing the security of datagram networks while preserving the bandwidth of gigabit networks. The TOE offloads a host CPU from network burdens, so that it makes the gigabit wire speed possible, and then deeper level security architecture of the IPSec guarantees the security of gigabit service network dominated by datagram packets. The focus of this paper is to minimize the TOE's performance degradation caused by the computation-oriented IPSec. The look-aside IPSec system provides a significant improvement in the CPU offload of the IPSec cryptography loads. However, the inline system completely offloads the host CPU from whole IPSec loads, providing significant additional cost saving compared to the look-aside system. In this paper, the implementations of TOE cards including commercial IPSec processors are presented. As the result of performance evaluation with the protocol analyzer, we can get the fact that the inline IPSec system is 8 times faster than the S/W system and 2 times faster than the look-aside system.

The increasing number of subscribers and demand of multiplicity of services has turned Multi-Server Authentication (MSA) into an integral part of remote authentication paradigm. MSA not only offers an efficient mode to register the users by engaging a trusted third party (Registration Centre), but also a cost-effective architecture for service procurement, onwards. Recently, Lu et al.'s scheme demonstrated that Mishra et al.'s scheme is unguarded to perfect forward secrecy compromise, server masquerading, and forgery attacks, and presented a better scheme. However, we discovered that Lu et al.'s scheme is still susceptible to malicious insider attack and non-compliant to perfect forward secrecy. This study presents a critical review on Lu et al.'s scheme and then proposes a secure multi-server authentication scheme. The security properties of contributed work are validated with automated Proverif tool and proved under formal security analysis.
