  • To guarantee secure communication in wireless sensor networks, secret keys should be securely established between sensor nodes. Recently, a simple key distribution scheme has been proposed for pair-wise key establishment in sensor networks by Anderson, Chan, and Perrig. They defined a practical attack model for non-critical commodity sensor networks. Unfortunately, the scheme is vulnerable under their attack model. In this paper, we describe the vulnerability in their scheme and propose a modified one. Our scheme is secure under their attack model and the security of our scheme is proved. Furthermore, our scheme does not require additional communication overhead nor additional infrastructure to load potential keys into sensor nodes.

  • Recently, the various web service and applications are provided to the user. As to these service, because of providing the service to the authenticated user, the user undergoes the inconvenience of performing the authentication with the service especially every time. The OAuth(Open Authorization) protocol which acquires the access privilege in which 3rd Party application is limited on the web service in order to resolve this inconvenience appeared. This OAuth protocol provides the service which is convenient and flexible to the user but has the security vulnerability about the authorization acquisition. Therefore, we propose the method that analyze the security vulnerability which it can be generated in the OAuth 2.0 protocol and secure user authority authentication method.

  • This study aims to develop an evaluation method for solar power facilities considering disaster impacts and to analyse the vulnerabilities of existing facilities. Haenam-gun in Jeollanam-do, where the reassessment of existing facilities is urgent, was selected as the study area. To evaluate the vulnerability from a more objective perspective, principal component analysis and entropy methods were utilised. Seven vulnerability assessment indicators were selected: maximum hourly rainfall, maximum wind speed, number of typhoon occurrence days, number of rainfall days lasting more than five days, maximum daily rainfall, impermeable area ratio, and population density. Among these, maximum hourly rainfall, maximum wind speed, maximum daily rainfall, and number of rainfall days lasting more than five days were found to have the highest weights. The overlay of the derived weights showed that the southeastern regions of Haenam-eup and Bukil-myeon were classified as Grade 1 and 2, whereas the northern regions of Hwawon-myeon, Sani-myeon, and Munnae-myeon were classified as Grade 4 and 5, indicating differences in vulnerability. Of the 2,133 facilities evaluated, 91.1% were classified as Grade 3 or higher, indicating a generally favourable condition. However, there were more Grade 1 facilities than Grade 2, highlighting the need for countermeasures. This study is significant in that it evaluates solar power facilities considering urban disaster resilience and is expected to be used as a basic resource for the installation of new facilities or the management and operation of existing ones.

  • Because the specific security technology alone can not cope with sophisticated attacks, various security management models are applied. But, they do not focus on the vulnerability of the highest part because they offer so many common security management criteria. By analyzing the main information and confidential leakage cases inflicting enormous damage to our society, we found that attackers are using mainly an interface vulnerabilities - the paths that connect the internal and external of the organization, such as e-mail, web server, portable devices, and subcontractor employees. Considering the reality that time and resources to invest in security domain are limited, we point out the interface security vulnerabilities the possibility of attackers to exploit and present a convergence method of security measures. Finally, based of ROI(Return on Investment), we propose the real-time security management system through the intensive and continuous management.
