The IEEE 802.1x standard provides an architectural framework which can be used various authentication methods. But, IEEE 802.1x also has vulnerabilities about the DoS, the session hijacking and the Man in the Middle attack due to the absence of AP authentication. In this paper, we propose a WLAN secure system which can offer a robust secure communication and a user authentications with the IEEE 802.1x framework. The user authentication on the WLAN secure system accomplishes mutual authentications between authentication severs, clients and the AP using PKI and prevents an illegal user from intervening in communication to disguise oneself as a client, the AP or authentication servers. Also, we guarantee the safety of the communication by doing secure communication between clients and the AP by the Dynamic WEP key distribution.

Existing web-based system management software solutions show some limitations in time and space. Moreover, hey possess such as shortcomings unreliable error message announcements and difficulties with real-time assistance supports and emergency measures. In order to solve these deficiencies, Wireless Remote Control System(W-RCS) was designed and implemented. W-RCS is able to manage and monitor remote systems by using mobile communication devices for instantaneous control. The implementation of W-RCS leads to these security problems as well as solutions to aforementioned issues with existing web-based system management software solutions. Therefore, this paper has focused on the security matters related to W-RCS. The security functions based on public key infrastructure include mobile device user authentication and target system access control. The W-RCS allows real-time user authentication, increases the flexibility of resource administrators and mobile device non, and provides not only uninterrupted services, but also safe mobile office environments.

The wireless sensor networking standard DASH7 operates in low-power communication with a better transmission quality in active RFID networks. The DASH7 security standard supports public key cryptography. At present, the DASH7 standard uses the message authentication code in the network layer for authentication and integrity. However, its security standard is still in an incubation stage with respect to the implementation of a crypto exchange over a DASH7 network. Effective key management is an important factor for privacy and security. If organizations are not careful about where and how keys are stored, they leave the encrypted data vulnerable to theft. In this regard, we present a key management system designed for efficient key management through public key infrastructure authentication as well as a non-repudiation feature for the DASH7 standard. We analyze the performance of the proposed system on a basis of various performance criteria such as latency and throughput.

센서네트워크는 넓은 지역에 무선 인프라로 묶여 설치된 센서들을 사용하여 상황 인지로 감지된 데이터를 응용서비스 서버와 연동하는 기술이다. 이는 환경 감시, 대상 추적, 환자 모니터링, 군사적 목적 등 매우 다양한 분야에 사용될 수 있다. 센서네트워크 역시 기존 네트워크에서 필요로 하는 보안 기능을 요구한다. 그러나 센서네트워크에 사용되는 노드들이 사용할 수 있는 자원에 제약이 있어, 기존의 암호기술을 그대로 적용하는데 어려움이 있다. 이러한 센서네트워크에서의 키 분배 문제를 해결하기 위하여 인증센터를 사용하는 기법, 랜덤 키 사전 분배 기법, q-합성수 랜덤 키 사전 분배 기법, Blom 스킴, 위치 기반 키 사전 분배 기법 등이 제안되어 있다. 한편, 공개키 연산의 많은 부하로 인하여 공개키 기법을 센서네트워크에 적용하기에 적합하지 않으리라 여겨져 왔으나, 최근의 연구결과들에 의하면 PKI처럼 복잡한 시스템을 구현하는 것은 부적합할지라도 공개키를 이용한 키 분배 기법을 센서네트워크에 적용하는 것이 실효성이 있다는 것을 보여준다. 본 논문에서는 TinyOS 플랫폼에서 공개키를 이용하여 센서 노드 간 상호 인증 및 세션키를 생성하여 암호 데이터 통신을 수행하는 센서네트워크 플랫폼을 구현한 결과를 제시한다.

PKI(Public Key Infrastructure) issues a certificate for providing Integrity of public key. and it Inspects the validity by downloading CRL(Certificate Revocation List) for checking the validity of certificate. But. it imposes a burden on processing of certificate due to Increase of user and the size of CRL, Lately, OCSP(Online Certificate Status Protocol), which examines the validity on online, is published as an alternative plan. But, it makes a problem due to concentration of just one certificate repository, Accordingly we propose the scheme that OCSP server is arranged in distributed area and then the information is safely transmitted to OCSP server.

Due to hardware resource limit and system incompatibility of the mobile device, and low bandwidth of wireless communication, there are a few difficulties in introducing the digital contract system based on wired communication to M-Commerce. To get over the difficulties, this paper defines a digital contract based upon XML and then addresses the design and implementation of M-XContract, a digital contract system for the mobile environment. M-XContract system has been constructed with the digital contract server, M-ESign module which contracts with the customer on the PDA and transfers the contract digitally signed to the server, M-EDecoder module which shows the contract to the customer from the server, and X-Auth which is a contract authoring tool. To evaluate the run-time performance of the M-XContract, we measured the digital signature generation time and transfer time to the server. The evaluation results show that the M-Xcontract is an efficient model for the mobile contract system.

M2M (Machine-to-Machine Communication) refers to technologies that allow wired and wireless systems to communicate with other devices with similar capabilities. M2M has special features which consist of low electricity consumption, cheap expenses, WAN, WLAN and others. Therefore, it can communicate via a network. Also, it can handle itself without a person's management. However, it has a wireless-communicate weakness because of the machine-communicate request, and also it is difficult to administrate and control each other. So In this Paper, It suggests the safety protocol between Device, Gateway and Network Domain in M2M environment. Proposed protocol is based on ID-Based encryption's certificate and creates session key between the Access Server and the Core Server in the Network Domain. It uses that session key for sending and receiving data in mutual, and adds key renewal protocol so it will automatically update discern result. a comparative analysis of the existing M2M communication technologies and PKI-based certificate technology is compared with the proposed protocol efficiency and safety.
