  • The use of smart home appliances and Internet of Things (IoT) devices is growing, enabling new interactions and automation in the home. This technology relies heavily on mobile services which leaves it vulnerable to the increasing threat of hacking, identity theft, information leakage, serious infringement of personal privacy, abnormal access, and erroneous operation. Confirming or proving such security breaches have occurred is also currently insufficient. Furthermore, due to the restricted nature of IoT devices, such as their specifications and operating environments, it is difficult to provide the same level of internet security as personal computers. Therefore, to increase the security on smart home IoT devices, attention is needed on (1) preventing hacking and user authority theft; (2) disabling abnormal manipulation; and (3) strengthening audit records for device operation. In response to this, we present a plan to build a cloud security authentication platform which features security authentication management functionality between mobile terminals and IoT devices.

  • In Korea, the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) has been introduced. For secure information transmission and identification, the electronic signature authorization system of a certificate-based is built, and then the service provide.The certificate is stored in location what users can easily access and copy. Thus, there is a risk that can be stolen by malware or web account hacking. In addition, private key passwords can be exposed by the logging tool, after keyboard security features are disabled. Each of these security weaknesses is a potential conduit for identity theft, property/asset theft, and theft of the actual certificates. The present study proposes a method to prevent the private key file access illegally. When a certificate is stored, the private key is encrypted by the dependent element of the device, and it is stored securely. If private key leakage occurs, the retrieved key could not be used on other devices.

  • Electronic payment system using Internet banking is a very important application for users of e-commerce environment. With rapidly growing use of fintech applications, the risk and damage caused by malicious hacking or identity theft are getting significant. To prevent the damage, fraud detection system (FDS) calculates the risk of the electronic payment transactions using user profiles including types of goods, device status, user location, and so on. In this paper, we propose a new risk calculation method using relative location of users such as SSID of wireless LAN AP and MAC address. Those relative location information are more difficult to imitate or copy compared with conventional physical location information like nation, GPS coordinates, or IP address. The new method using relative location and cumulative user characteristics will enable stronger risk calculation function to FDS and thus give enhanced security to electronic payment systems.

  • Recently, an attack to an application incapacitates the intrusion detection rule, the defense policy for a network and database and induces intrusion incidents. Thus, it is necessary to study integration security to ensure the security of an internal network and database from that attack. This article is about building an integration security system to prevent an attack to an application set with intrusion detection rules. It responds to network-based attack through detection, disperses attack with the internal integration security system through virtual clustering and load balancing, and sets up defense policy for attacking destination packets, analyzes and records attack packets, and updates rules through monitoring and analysis. Moreover, this study establishes defense policy according to attacking types to settle access traffic through virtual machine partition policy and suggests an integration security system applied to prevent attack and tests its defense. The result of this study is expected to provide practical data for integration security defense for hacking attack from outside.

  • As meters become digital and smart, energy data such as electricity, gas, heat, and water can be accurately and efficiently measured with a smart meter, providing consumers with data on energy used, so that real-time demand response and energy management services can be utilized. Although it is developing from a simple metering system to a smart metering industry to create a high value-added industry fused with ICT, illegal counterfeiting of electronic meters is causing problems in intelligent crimes such as manipulation and hacking of SW. The meter not only allows forgery of the meter data through arbitrary manipulation of the SW, but also leaves a fatal error in the metering performance, so that the OIML requires the validation of the SW from the authorized institution. In order to solve this problem, a quantitative confirmation device was developed in order to eradicate the act of cheating the fuel oil quantity through encoder pulse operation and program modulation, etc. In order to prevent the act of deceiving the lubricator, a device capable of checking pulse forgery was developed, manufactured, and verified. In addition, the performance of the device was verified by conducting an experiment on the meter being used in the actual field. It is judged that the developed quantitative confirmation device can be applied to other flow meters other than lubricators, and in this case, accurate measurement can be induced.

  • Recently, the development of the various network method can generate serious social problems. So, it is highly required to control security of network. These problems related security will be developed and keep up to confront with anti-security field such as hacking, cracking. The way to preserve security from hacker or cracker without developing new cryptographic algorithm is keeping the state of anti-cryptanalysis in a prescribed time by means of extending key-length. In this paper, the proposed montgomery multiplication structured unit array method in carry generated part and variable length multiplication for eliminating bottle neck effect with the RSA cryptosystem. Therefore, this proposed montgomery multiplier enforce the real time processing and prevent outer cracking.
