인터넷과 전자상거래의 발전에 따라 전자적 수단으로 화폐 가치를 이전하는 수단이 마그네틱 카드에서 IC카드로 대체될 것으로 기대되고 있다. IC카드는 마그네틱 카드보다 많은 데이터를 저장할 수 있고, 물리적인 보안(Tamper-resistance)과 암호기법(Cryptographic Technique)을 통해 외부와의 통신을 엄격히 통제 및 보호할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 고에서는 IC카드의 안전성에 대해 알아보기 위해 먼저 IC카드를 정의하고 분류한다. 그리고, IC카드의 안전성 관련기능으로 카드에서의 사용자 인증, 카드와 카드단말사이의 실체인증, 접근통제 및 데이터의 기밀성/무결성, 키관리에 대해 알아보고, IC카드와 관련된 공격모델 및 공격기법들을 조사하여 정리하고자 한다.

In this paper, we analyze the security of a self-recovery fragile watermarking scheme proposed by C. Wang et al. An attack against C. Wang et al.'s scheme is demonstrated. The theoretical and experimental results show that the proposed scheme is not secure against attacks.

In order to prevent tampering and reverse engineering of executive code, this paper propose a new tamper resistant software mechanism. This paper presents a cryptographic MAC function and a relationship which has its security level derived by the importance of code block instead of by merely getting the encryption and decryption key from the previous block. In this paper, we propose a cryptographic MAC function which generates a dynamic MAC function key instead of the hash function as written in many other papers. In addition, we also propose a relationships having high, medium and low security levels. If any block is determined to have a high security level then that block will be encrypted by the key generated by the related medium security level block. The low security block will be untouched due to efficiency considerations. The MAC function having this dynamic key and block relationship will make analyzing executive code more difficult.

Many watermarking methods for protecting the intellectual property right and authentication multimedia data have been proposed in recent years. In image authentication watermarking, watermark is inserted into an image to detect any malicious alteration. So, watermark for authentication and integrity should be erased easily when the image is changed by scaling or cropping etc. We propose in this paper a fragile watermarking algorithm for image integrity verification and tamper localization proofing using special hierarchical structure. In the proposed method, the image to be watermarked is divided into blocks in a multi-level hierarchy and calculating block digital signatures in thus hierarchy. At each level of the hierarchy, a digital signature for each block is calculated using the seven most significant bit(MSBs)-plane values of all pixels within the block. And the resulting signature is incorporated into the LSBs of selected pixels within the block. We provide experimental results to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In terms of the speed-up of the conventional line, the research for a improved turnout was carried out continually around world. A turnout is known that it is the most unstable equipment structurally in the rail system. So, the turnout is needed more stable structure. An accurate assembly of turnout affects traveling qualify of turnout area and running safety. Therefore, a turnout which is pre-assembled at a factory by using the split PC sleeper is transported to construction site recently in advanced countries. In this paper, the performance measurements which estimate the safety of the split PC sleepers which are adopted for the first time to improve performance of turnout are implemented indoors. The split PC sleeper is one of components of the improved turnout. The test is considered of the worst ballast condition under the maintenance work as like STT(Swithc Tie Tamper) or MTT(Multiple Tie Tamper). These experiments results indicate that structural safety for the expansion joint of the split PC sleepers.

A PUF is embedded and implemented into a tag or a device, and outputs a noise y with an input of x, based on its own unique physical characteristics. Although x is used multiple times as inputs of PUF, the PUF outputs slightly different noises, ($y_1,{\cdots}y_n$), and also the PUF has tamper-resistance property, hence it has been widely used in cryptographic protocol. In this paper, we study how to design a PUF-based RFID authentication protocol in a secure and an efficient way. Compared with recent schemes, the proposed scheme guarantees both authentication and privacy of backword/forward under the compromise of long-term secrets stored in tag. And also, the most cost and time-consumming procedure, key recovery algorithm used with PUF, has been desgined in the side of RFID reader, not in the tag, and, consequently, gives possibility to minimize costs for implementation and running time.

Digital watermarking was developed to protect copyright by discouraging the illegal copying of digital content. On the other hand, recently, watermarking has also been used to verify the integrity of digital content, such as medical images, and detect illegal manipulation or distortion locations. Watermarking should be tenacious so as to protect copyright from illegal copying and should remain firm to the content through a range of attacks, such as distortion or filtering. At the same time, however, it should be removed easily even in a slight transformation of the material to verify the integrity. Therefore, this paper proposes a watermarking technique that easily checks and verifies the deformation or manipulation of digital images. In the proposed method, the entire image was examined in $16{\times}16$ blocks to check for deformation of the image. When deformation was detected, further inspection proceeded in $4{\times}4$ blocks and the location where deformation occurred was identified.

As the main carrier of information, digital image is becoming more and more important. However, with the popularity of image acquisition equipment and the rapid development of image editing software, in recent years, digital image counterfeiting incidents have emerged one after another, which not only reduces the credibility of images, but also brings great negative impacts to society and individuals. Image copy-paste tampering is one of the most common types of image tampering, which is easy to operate and effective, and is often used to change the semantic information of digital images. In this paper, a method to protect the authenticity and integrity of image content by studying the tamper detection method of image copy and paste was proposed. In view of the excellent learning and analysis ability of deep learning, two tamper detection methods based on deep learning were proposed, which use the traces left by image processing operations to distinguish the tampered area from the original area in the image. A series of experimental results verified the rationality of the theoretical basis, the accuracy of tampering detection, location and classification.

In this paper, We propose a transaction signing-based authentication scheme for protecting sinkhole attacks in wireless sensor networks. Sinkhole attack makes packets that flow network pass through attacker. So, Sinkhole attack can be extended to various kind of attacks such as denial of service attacks, selective delivery or data tamper etc. We analyze sinkhole attack methods in directed diffusion based wireless sensor networks. For the purpose of response to attack method, Transaction signing-based authentication scheme is proposed. This scheme can work for those sensor networks which use directed diffusion based wireless sensor networks. The validity of proposed scheme is provided by BAN logic.

Secure and efficient authentication schemes over insecure networks have been a very important issue with the rapid development of networking technologies. Wang et al. proposed a remote user authentication scheme using smart cards. However, recently, Chen et al. pointed out that their scheme is vulnerable to the impersonation attack and the parallel session attack, and they proposed an enhanced authentication scheme. Chen et al. claimed that their scheme is secure against the various attacks. However, we have found that their scheme cannot resist the parallel attack and the stolen smart card attack. Therefore, in this paper, we show the security flaws in Chen et al.'s scheme and propose an improved remote user authentication scheme using tamper-resistant smart cards to solve the problem of Chen et al.'s scheme. We also analyze our scheme in terms of security and performance.
