Cryptographic algorithms are used to prevent the illegal manipulation of data. They are divided into public-key cryptosystems and symmetric-key cryptosystems. Public-key cryptosystems require considerable time for encryption and decryption compared to symmetric-key cryptosystem. On the other hand, key management, and delivery are easier for public-key cryptosystems than symmetric-key cryptosystems because different keys are used for encryption and decryption. Furthermore, hash functions are being used very effectively to verify the integrity of the digital content, as they always generate output with a fixed size using the data of various sizes as input. This paper proposes a method using RSA public-key cryptography and a hash function to determine if a digital image is deformed or not and to detect the manipulated location. In the proposed method, the entire image is divided into several blocks, 64×64 in size. The watermark is then allocated to each block to verify the deformation of the data. When deformation occurs, the manipulated pixel will be divided into smaller 4×4 sub-blocks, and each block will have a watermark to detect the location. The safety of the proposed method depends on the security of the cryptographic algorithm and the hash function.

This paper describes an efficient hardware implementation of Whirlpool hash function as ISO/IEC 10118-3 standard. Optimized timing is achieved by using pipelined small LUTs, and Whirlpool block cipher and key schedule have been implemented in parallel for improving throughput. In key schedule, key addition is area-optimized by using inverters and muxes instead of using rom and xor gates. This hardware has been implemented on Virtex5-XC5VSX50T FPGA device. Its maximum operating frequency is about 151MHz, and throughput is about 950Mbps.

One of the most distinguished features of the DHP association rules mining algorithm is that it counts the support of hash key combinations composed of k items at phase k-1, and uses the counted support for pruning candidate large itemsets to improve performance. At this time, it is desirable for each hash key combination to have a separate count variable, where it is impossible to allocate the variables owing to memory shortage. So, the algorithm uses a direct hashing mechanism in which several hash key combinations conflict and are counted in a same hash bucket. But the direct hashing mechanism is not efficient because the distribution of hash key combinations is unvalanced by the characteristics sourced from the mining process. This paper proposes a mapped perfect hashing function which maps the region of hash key combinations into a continuous integer space for phase 3 and maximizes the efficiency of direct hashing mechanism. The results of a performance test experimented on 42 test data sets shows that the average performance improvement of the proposed hashing mechanism is 7.3% compared to the existing method, and the highest performance improvement is 16.9%. Also, it shows that the proposed method is more efficient in case the length of transactions or large itemsets are long or the number of total items is large.

Many researches have proposed key management schemes for Smartgrid System. However, previous studies lack the proper considerations for availability and device security. In this paper, we build up cryptographic security improvement for robust Smartgrid Systems. In addition, we propose a public-key management and hash function architecture for robust Smartgrid Systems which supports reduces the number of key and Secure Device in AMI network environments.

This paper describes a design of hash processor which can execute new hash algorithm, SHA-3 and extendable-output function (XOF), SHAKE-256. The processor that consists of padder block, round-core block and output block maximizes its performance by using the block-level pipelining scheme. The padder block formats the variable-length input data into multiple blocks and then round block generates SHA-3 message digest or SHAKE256 result for multiple blocks using on-the-fly round constant generator. The output block finally transfers the result to host processor. The hash processor that is implemented with Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA can operate up to 220-MHz clock frequency. The estimated maximum throughput is 5.28 Gbps(giga bits per second) for SHA3-512. Because the processor supports both SHA-3 hash algorithm and SHAKE256 algorithm, it can be applicable to cryptographic areas such as data integrity, key generation and random number generation.

In this paper we suggest a group key agreement protocol among a group consisting more than 3 PKIs. From an 128 bit message, we produce a group key to any length size using a hash function. With a computer experiment we found that PKI's encryption/decryption time is the most dominant part of this procedure and an 160 bit ECC PKI is the most efficient system for distributing an 128 bit message in practical level. We implement this procedure over an unsecure multi user chatting system which is an open software. And we also show that this suggestion could be practically used in military business without a hardware implementation.

ARIA is a block cipher proposed by Kwon et al. at ICISC 2003 that is widely used as the national standard block cipher in the Republic of Korea. Herein, we identify some flaws in the quantum rebound attack on seven-round ARIA-DM proposed by Dou et al. and reveal that the limit of this attack is up to five rounds. Our revised attack applies to not only ARIA-DM but also ARIA-MMO and ARIA-MP among the PGV models, and it is valid for all ARIA key lengths. Furthermore, we present dedicated quantum rebound attacks on seven-round ARIA-Hirose and ARIA-MJH for the first time. These attacks are only valid for the 256-bit key length of ARIA because they are constructed using the degrees of freedom in the key schedule. All our attacks are faster than the generic quantum attack in the cost metric of the time-space tradeoff.

Recently, Sun et el. proposed a three-party authenticated key exchange protocol using the public key of the server and the derived verifier from the Password of a user. This paper proposes a password-based three-party authenticated key exchange protocol using smartcards. Since the proposed protocol has very low computation cost by using XOR and hash function operation instead of the public key operation, and reduces the count of message transmission to 20% compared with the protocol of Sun et el., it can execute an effective authenticated key exchange. Furthermore, the proposed protocol is safe from password guessing attack by not saving passwords in the server, and it is also safe from server compromise attack because the server cannot know the shared session key between the two users.

A low-power Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system is an auto-identification technology that reads and writes an information of things without physical contacts using radio frequency. It is unescapable against unlawful modification, eavesdropping, tracking, or privacy of individuals because RFID systems use the radio frequency and RFID tags. Therefore we create a key using hash chain between database and tag and this process can prevent above attacks. Also we support the efficiency of proposed protocol using hash function to abate computation.

The development of wireless communication technology and change in the ICT market has led to the development of the M2M service and technology. Under these circumstances, the M2M environment has been the focus of communication environment construction between machines without control or direct intervention of human being. With characteristics of wireless communication environment, the possibility of being exposed to numerous security threats and safe communication security technology have becoming an issue an important requirements for problems such as data exposure, forgery, modulation, deletion, and privacy. This research analyzes requirements of trapdoor collision hash, generates keys between groups under the M2M environment by using the specificity of trapdoor, and suggests technology to exchange keys with session keys. Further, it also suggests techniques to confirm authentication of device and gateway in accordance with group key generation. The techniques herein suggested are confirmed as safe methods in that they have attack resistance such as Masquerade Attack, Man-in-the-Middle Attack, and Replay Attack in the group communication block by using the speciality of collision message and collision hash.
