Mobile IP is designed to provide IP services to roaming nodes. Mobile users take advantage of this protocol to obtain the services as if they were connected to their home network. In many cases mobile users is connected through a wireless link and is protected by corporation's firewall in virtual Private network. In order to have a successful deployment of Mobile IP as an extension of a private network, security services should be provided as if the mobile node were attached to its home network. In this paper, we propose the security mechanism of combining Mobile IP and IPSec tunnels, which can provide secure traversal of firewall in a home network. The simulation results show that the proposed mechanism provides the secure and efficient communication.

Recently, WiBro service as a mobile internet has been being extended. The market of wireless data communication has been being extended rapidly due to the increase of mobile data communication service supply such as smart-phone, WiBro service and so on. As the result, security is also emphasized in the mobile Internet In this paper, we propose the methods that tighten up security in the upcoming Enterprise Mobile-VPN service on WiBro network.

An agent is a computer program that acts autonomously on a computer system. A mobile agent is not bound to the system where it begins execution. It has an ability to transport itself from on e system in a network to another. Mobile agent system solve the network traffic problem. Moreover, the agent may utilize the object services of the destination agent system. In this study the mobile agent system is introduced to support security service.

Wireless mesh network (WMN) is a type of mobile ad-hoc network consists of wireless router, mobile clients and gateway which connects the network with the Internet. To provide security in the network it is required to encrypt the message sent among the communicating nodes in such way so that only legitimate user can retrieve the original data. Several security mechanisms have been proposed so far to enhance the security of WMN. However, there still exists a need for a comprehensive mechanism to prevent attacks in data communication. Considering the characteristic of mesh network, in this paper we proposed a public key cryptography based security architecture to establish a secure key agreement among communicating nodes in mesh network. The proposed security architecture consists of two major sections: client data protection and network data protection. Client data protection deals with the mutual authentication between the client and the access router and provide client to access router encryption for data confidentiality using standard IEEE 802.11i protocol. On the other hand, network data protection ensures encrypted routing and data transfer in the multi hop backbone network. For the network data protection, we used the pre-distributed public key to form a secure backbone infrastructure.

In the course of Internet proliferation, many network-related technologies are examined for possible growth and evolution. The use of Internet-based technologies in private networks has further fuelled the demand for network-based applications. The most promising among the new paradigms is use of mobile agents. The mobile agent is capable of migrating autonomously from node to node in the network, to perform some computation on behalf of the user. The mobile agent paradigm is attractive alternative to traditional client-server programming for a significant class of network-centric applications. It also however, suffers from a major drawback, namely, the potential for malicious attacks, abuse of resources pilfering of information, and other security issues. These issues are significantly hampering the acceptance of the mobile-agent paradigm. This paper describe the design & implementation of secure mobile agent gateway that split and merge the agent cede with security policy database. This mechanism will promote the security in mobile agent systems and mobile agent itself.

In this paper, the information security requirements in the mobile ad-hoc network(MANET) are presented, and the algorithm to establish the protection node(gateway) is proposed to prevent the distributed denial of service(DDoS). The information security technology and security threats in the MANET are presented, and protection node is decided to minimize the total cost through the sending nodes and receiving nodes by way of protection node. To set up the protection node, the minimization algorithms of maximum cost and the average cost between the protection node and receiving nodes are compared with the optimal solutions, in which optimal solution is found out by all enumeration method. From the results, the total cost between the sending and receiving nodes is minimized under the average cost minimization algorithm rather than the using of the maximum cost.

In Mobile IP protocol, because a mobile node still uses its home IP address even though it moves to foreign network from home network, authentication among mobile node, foreign network and home network is critical issue. Many researches about this issue have been based on shared secret, for example mobile node and home agent authenticate each other with pre-shared symmetry key. And they missed several security issues such as replay attack. Although public key scheme could be applied to this issue easily, since the public key cryptography is computationally complicated, it still has the problem that it is not practical to realistic environment. In this paper, we describe several security issues in Mobile IP protocol. And we propose new Mobile IP authentication protocol that is applicable to realistic environment using public key algorithm based on certificate. It has scalability for mobile nodes and is applicable to the original Mobile IP protocol without any change. Finally we prove security of the proposed protocol and that it might not affect performance of the original Mobile IP protocol.

Current mobile communication system is in the mid-process of conversion from 4G LTE to 5G network. According to the generalization of mobile communication services, personal information such as user's identifiers and location information is transmitted through a mobile communication network. The importance of security technology is growing according to the characteristics of wireless mobile communication networks, the use of wireless shared channels is inevitable, and security technology cannot be applied to all network system elements in order to satisfy the bandwidth and speed requirements. In particular, for security threat analysis, researches are being conducted on various attack types and vulnerability analysis through rogue base stations or attacker UE to make user services impossible in the case of 5G networks. In this paper, we established a 5G network testbed using open sources. And we analyzed three security vulnerabilities related to NAS COUNT and confirmed the validity of two vulnerabilities based on the testbed or analyzing the 3GPP standard.

Since the mobile node acts as the router, the Mobile Ad Hoc network requires the security methods that are different from that of network of the wire environment. Also, since the total network can't be included in the transmission area of the mobile node, when one node sends the message to the other node, we need the middle node. But if the middle node is the unreliable malicious node, we can't guarantee the secure message transmission. Also, because all nodes configuring the network are the mobile nodes, they use the restricted battery capacity and the restricted resources. Therefore, because we have trouble performing the encryption that many resources are required when we sending the message, it is vulnerable to the security than the network of the wire environment. Last, because the network topology continues to change by the mobility of nodes configuring the network, we need the security measure that matches the network characteristics. We suggest the routing attack detection for performance enhancement of AODV protocol in Mobile Ad Hoc networks.
