Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol was proposed to discover neighboring hosts and routers in IPv6 wire/wireless local networks. ND protocol, however, has a problem that it is vulnerable to network attacks because ND protocol allows malicious users to impersonate other legitimate hosts or routers by forging ND protocol messages. To address the security problem, Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND) protocol was proposed. SEND protocol provides address ownership proof mechanism, ND protocol message protection mechanism, reply attack prevention mechanism, and router authentication mechanism to protect ND protocol. In this paper, we design and implement SEND protocol in IPv6 local networks. And also, we evaluate and analyze the security vulnerability and performance of SEND protocol by experimenting the implemented SEND protocol on IPv6 networks.

IC 카드의 하드웨어적인 제약으로 대부분의 IC 카드는 대칭키 알고리즘을 사용하고 있지만 IC 카드 하드웨어 제조 기술의 발전으로 앞으로는 보안성이 우수한 비대 칭키 알고리즘이 많이 사용될 것이다. 그리고 IC 카드의 가장 큰 제약적 중 하나는 메모리 용량의 한계이다. 따라서 보안상 안전하면서도 메모리를 적게 사용하는 IC 카드 운영체제의 구현을 중요한 문제이다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 다양한 종류의 키 알고리즘을 수용할 수 있는 키 파일 탐색 기법을 제안하였다. 또한 데이터 파일 헤더에 잠금 필드를 삽입하여 보안성을 향상시켰으며 메모리 사용량을 줄일 수 있도록 데이터 파일 헤더만을 이용한 파일 탐색 기법과 자유 공간 탐색 기법을 제안하였다. Because of the evolution of IC card hardware fabrication technologies IC card will be able to accept asymmetric key encryption algorithm in the future. One of the most restrictive points of IC card is memory capacity. Therefore it is an important problem to design a secure IC card operating system using memory in small. In this paper we proposed a key file search mechanism using a key length field inserted in a key file header structure. The key file search mechanism makes IC card execute any key-based encryption algorithm. In addition we proposed inserting a lock field in data file header structure. The lock field intensifies the security of a data file. Finally we proposed a data file search mechanism and free space search mechanism using only data file header. The file system using these mechanisms spends smaller memory than that using a file description table and record of unallocated space.

This paper discusses the quorum based algorithm for group mutual exclusion defined by Yuh-Jzer Joung. Group mutual exclusion[4,5,6] is a generalization of mutual exclusion that allows a resource to be shared by processes of the same group, but requites processes of different groups to use the resource in a mutually exclusive style. Joung proposed a quorum system, which he referred to as the surficial quorum system for group mutual exclusion and two modifications of Maekawa's algorithm[6]. He mentioned that when a process may belong to more than one group, the process must identify one of the groups it belongs when it wishes to enter CS(Critical Section). However, his solution didn't provide mechanism of identifying a group which maximizes the possibility to enter CS. In this paper, we provide a mechanism for identifying that each process belongs to which group.

An integrated security mechanism is one of the key challenges in the open wireless network architecture because of the diversity of the wireless network in open wireless network and the unique security mechanism used in each one of these networks. In the paper we analysed some elements to guarantee security and privacy preserving in distributed IT applications which provide some kind of support to complex medical domains.

Mobile agents based e-commerce system has many advantage than traditional e-commerce-information gathering on goods, price settlement and payment, delivery of the goods purchased, and so on. However, due to the security vulnerability that stems from mobile agent's mobility, mobile agents based e-commerce system has additional security problems. Therefore, in order to do e-commerce securely in th system, first of al the security issues on mobile agents must be addressed. It this paper, we propose a mobile agent transfer protocol that provides confidentiality and integrity of mobile agent in transit and mutual authentication for communicating hosts. We further show the security of the protocol against many possible attacks. Also, we suggest the location management mechanism of mobile agents based on the trust center. This mechanism is capable of finding their locations transparently and detecting mobile agent clones.

Multimedia service whose use is rapidly increasing supports effective services to convert and transmit multimedia data based on network speed, noise circumstance, terminal computation, and type of contents for satisfying QoS. For supporting information protection of multimedia service, it offers middle level of singular security service or security mechanism which is based on policy of service provider, depending on present terminal computation and type of contents. It can support security mechanism for more effective multimedia service, if we study security of application layer and network layer for supporting multimedia service. In this paper, we propose Multimedia security framework reflected on quantitative analysis of the WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) mesh network security using the utility function in the level of the sorority, violation and addictive compensation model.

Owing to the development of wireless infrastructure and mobile communication technology, There is growing interest in smart phone using it. The resulting popularity of smart phone has increased the Mobile Malicious AP-related security threat and the access to the wireless AP(Access Point) using Wi-Fi. mobile AP mechanism is the use of a mobile device with Internet access such as 3G cellular service to serve as an Internet gateway or access point for other devices. Within the enterprise, the use of mobile AP mechanism made corporate information management difficult owing to use wireless system that is impossible to wire packet monitoring. In this thesis, we propose mobile AP mechanism-based mobile malicious AP detection and prevention mechanism in radius authentication server network. Detection approach detects mobile AP mechanism-based mobile malicious AP by sniffing the beacon frame and analyzing the difference between an authorized AP and a mobile AP mechanism-based mobile malicious AP detection.

Mobile RFID system is a next generation technology which combines the existing RFID systems with mobile systems. It is newly expected to provide additional services and will be broadly used in everyday life; however, it sometimes causes the privacy or security problems generated by existing RFID systems and the additional privacy or security problems. Moreover, even if many methods have been proposed to solve those problems, it is still difficult to adapt to reality or to guarantee the security perfectly. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the secure and practicable privacy protection mechanism suitable to mobile RFID systems. proposing mechanism is applicable the mechanism to Private Zone of mobile RFID systems which require to protect the privacy. This mechanism suggests that own tagging-products needed to protect privacy using mobile reader of personal don't provide any information to other readers except their own reader. In addition to, proposing mechanism is the efficient mechanism which largely reduces the process to maintain the synchronization when happen to the DoS attack or system error.

Most of existing RFID authentication protocols either suffer from some security weaknesses or require costly operations that are not available on low-cost tags. In this paper, we analyzed the security mechanism of a lightweight authentication protocol.
