  • Unlikely unicast transmission, there are many elements that threaten security. Thus, key management of creating and distributing group keys to authorized group members is a critical aspect of secure multicast operations. To offer security in multicast environment, the recent researches are related to most group key distribution. In this thesis, we propose a group key management protocol for efficient, scalable, and multicast operation. This proposed protocol architecture can distribute traffic centralized to the key server. since the group key rekeyed by sub-group manager. The detailed simulation compared with other group key management protocol show that the proposed group key management protocol is better for join, leave, and data latency.

  • Development of an efficient and secure payment system is prerequisite for the construction of electronic payment mechanism in mobile environment. Since current PayWord protocol system generates vendor's certificate for each transaction, it requires lot of operation for transaction. In this paper, we use a session key generated by ID-based tripartite Key agreement protocol which use an Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem over finite field $F_{q}$ for transactions. Therefore, our protocol reduces algorithm operations. In particular, proposed protocol using ID-based public key cryptosystem has the advantages over the existing systems in speed and it is more secure in Man-in-the-middle attacks and Forward secrecy.

  • Data security and integrity is a critical issue in data transmission over wired/wireless links. A large amount of data is encrypted before transmission, by block cipher using mode of operation. RBF mode is a block cipher mode of operation which uses random characteristics. In this paper, we analyze the safety against known plaintext attack and chosen plaintext attack of RBF mode compared to the traditional modes. According to the analysis, RBF mode is known to be secure while the traditional modes are not secure against them.

  • To ensure data confidentiality and fine-grained access control in business environment, system model using KP-ABE(Key Policy-Attribute Based Encryption) and PRE(Proxy Re-Encryption) has been proposed recently. However, in previous study, data confidentiality has been effected by decryption right concentrated on cloud server. Also, Yu's work does not consider a access privilege management, so existing work become dangerous to collusion attack between malicious user and cloud server. To resolve this problem, we propose secure system model against collusion attack through dividing data file into header which is sent to privilege manager group and body which is sent to cloud server and prevent modification attack for proxy re-encryption key using d Secret Sharing, We construct protocol model in medical environment.

  • The concept of Smart-Homes is becoming more and more popular. It is anticipated that Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) technology will play a major role in such environments. We can find many previously proposed schemes that focus solely on: authentication between the RFID tags and readers, and user privacy protection from malicious readers. There has also been much talk of a very popular RFID application: a refrigerator/bookshelf that can scan and list out the details of its items on its display screen. Realizing such an application is not as straight forward as it seems to be, especially in securely deploying such RFID-based applications in a smart home environment. Therefore this paper describes some of the RFID-based applications that are applicable to smart home environments. We then identify their related privacy and security threats and security requirements and also propose a secure approach, where RFID-tagged consumer items, RFID-reader enabled appliances (e.g., refrigerators), and RFID-based applications would securely interact among one another. At the moment our approach is just a conceptual idea, but it sheds light on very important security issues related to RFID-based applications that are beneficial for consumers.

  • Advances in wireless sensor network (WSN) technology have enabled small and low-cost sensors with the capability of sensing various types of physical and environmental conditions, data processing, and wireless communication. In the WSN, the sensor nodes have a limited transmission range and their processing and storage capabilities as well as their energy resources are limited. A triple umpiring system has already been proved for its better performance in WSNs. The clustering technique is effective in prolonging the lifetime of the WSN. In this study, we have modified the ad-hoc on demand distance vector routing by incorporating signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) based dynamic clustering. The proposed scheme, which is an efficient and secure routing protocol for wireless sensor networks through SNR-based dynamic clustering (ESRPSDC) mechanisms, can partition the nodes into clusters and select the cluster head (CH) among the nodes based on the energy, and non CH nodes join with a specific CH based on the SNR values. Error recovery has been implemented during the inter-cluster routing in order to avoid end-to-end error recovery. Security has been achieved by isolating the malicious nodes using sink-based routing pattern analysis. Extensive investigation studies using a global mobile simulator have shown that this hybrid ESRP significantly improves the energy efficiency and packet reception rate as compared with the SNR unaware routing algorithms such as the low energy aware adaptive clustering hierarchy and power efficient gathering in sensor information systems.

  • A wireless sensor network is being actively researched around the world that are connected to the mesh are a plurality of sensor nodes in a wireless manner that span different regions of the techniques. However, wireless communications use the limitation of resources, so it is very weak due to the properties of the network itself secure in comparison to the normal network. Wireless sensor network is divided into tapped-based attacks, forgery based attacks, denial of service attacks based largely by securities laws must defend against various attacks such as insertion of the wrong information being sent eavesdropping or modification of information, which is usually sensor network applications need to do. The countermeasure of sensor network attack is described in this research, and it will contribute to establish a secure sensor network communication.

  • Presently, etwork is being in the existence as an influence can not be neglected. This rapid progress of network has gone with development of mobile network and information communication. But the development of network can generate serous 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 part such as hacking, cracking. There's no way to preserve security from hacker or cracker without delvelopping new cryptographic algorithm or keeping the state of anti-cryptanalysis in a prescribed time by means of extendig key-length. Worldwidely, many researchers for network security are trying to handle these problems. In this paper, we proposed a new block cryptosystem. The Block cipher-Secure Electronic Xenogenesis Algorithm(B-SEXA) which is capable to cipher regardless of key distribution or key-length for these definite problem is proposed and designed in hardware. B-SEXA increase secret level from using a MDP and MLP in maximum is proposed to prevent cryptograpy analysis. The designed B-SEXA in this paper performed synthesization and simulation using Synopsys Vwe. 1999.10 and VHDL.

  • We propose an improved Diffie-Hellman(DH) key agreement protocol over a radio link in peer-to-peer networks. The proposed protocol ensures a secure establishment of the shared key between two parties through distance bounding(DB). Proposed protocol is much improved in the sense that we now reduce the number of messages exchanged by two, the number of parameters maintained by four, and 2(7682(k/64)-64) of XOR operations, where k is the length of the random sequence used in the protocol. Also, it ensures a secure reusability of DH public parameters. Start after striking space key 2 times.
