  • In mobile communication, there are various types of handoff for the support of all forms of mobility. Proxy mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) enables local network-based mobility management of a mobile node without any effect of mobility-related signaling. Recently, PMIPv6 has been considered for supporting mobility management in LTE/SAE-based mobile networks. To support seamless mobility in heterogeneous mobile networks, the overall cost of handoffs needs to be minimized and the procedure should be guaranteed to be secure. However, the reduction of the authentication cost has not been fully investigated to provide seamless connectivity when mobile users perform a handoff between the PMIPv6 domains. This paper proposes secure pre-authentication schemes, completing an authentication procedure before performing a handoff, for a fast handoff in PMIPv6. Analytic models have been used for measuring the authentication latency and for the overhead cost analysis. In addition to providing fast authentication, the proposed pre-authentication schemes can prevent threats such as replay attacks and key exposure.

  • Handover in IEEE 802.11 requires repeated authentication and key exchange procedures, which are an obstacle to seamless services of wireless LAM. We propose a fast authentication and key exchange mechanism using IEEE 802.11f. Especially, by proposing a modified version of the 4-way handshake of IEEE 802.11i, we solve the perfect forward secrecy problem that arises when the pre-authentication is adopted. The scheme can be implemented only using the Context Block of IEEE 802.11f and the 4-way handshake of IEEE 802.11i without involving authentications server's interaction or non-standard behavior between access points. Our scheme is applicable to devices not supporting the us-authentication of IEEE 802.11i and also, it can substitute the pre-authentication when the pre-authentication is failed.

  • A variety of services for mobile payments by the activation of FinTech have been developed. Various payment methods were developed, and an authentication method was developed to improve the reliability of the payment. On the other hand, when mobile easy payment services are used, they have weak security because the authentication by phone number. Therefore, this paper proposes a technique for increasing the reliability of the authentication process using the unique device ID of the mobile device to improve the authentication process based on the telephone number. The core research contents are the architecture and process for the authentication of mobile payments based on the mobile device ID. The mobile payment architecture consists of a mobile device, authentication service, and mobile payment application. The mobile device consists of mobile device ID and phone number, and the authentication server consists of authentication module and encryption module. The mobile payment service consists of a pre-authentication module and decryption module. The process of mobile payment service is processed by the encrypted authentication information (device ID, phone number, and authentication number) among mobile devices, authentication server, and mobile payment application. The mobile device sends the telephone number and the device ID to the authentication server and the authentication server authenticates the user through an authentication process and encryption process. The mobile payment application performs the pre-authentication process by decrypting the received authentication number. This paper reports a difference that can prevent the risk of leakage of the authentication number in existing payment services through the authentication process of the authentication server and the pre-authentication process of the mobile payment service of this paper.

  • The current trend of the handover authentication delay time is gradually increased according to the interworking between 3G cellular network and WLANs. Therefore, authentication mechanism minimized in delay is required to perform the seamless handover and support the inter-subnet and inter-domain handover. In this paper, we propose a novel pre-authentication scheme based on the fast channel switching which directly performs the authentication with the next access point in advance. In addition, the proposed scheme is efficient in the inter-domain handover and can be easily implemented in current WLANs since it just modifies the client side of user. To analysis and evaluate our scheme, we compare the packet loss ratio and the delay time with the two standard 802.11 authentication schemes. The analytical results show that our scheme is approximate 10 times more effective than the standard schemes in packet loss and the delay time is minimized down to 0.16 msec.

  • As the IEEE 802.11 WLAN has widely installed as a high-speed wireless network information infrastructure, there has been growing interest in both security and mobility of mobile terminals. However, for the case of mobile terminal employing IEEE 802.11i security standard, it is known that the user authentication procedure of IEEE 802.1x for stronger security enforcement may, due to its large delay, not be suitable for real-time multimedia communication. In this paper, we have proposed fast authentication method to resolve the above authentication delay problem, and verifies its performance via simulation analysis. Mobile terminals can get AP information reliably, and selectively execute authentication in advance during handover, which results in fast user authentication. In addition, by effectively managing the authentication information in mobile terminal, which are distributed in advance for pre-authentication, the problem of long-time revelation of authentication information has been solved.

  • Biometric authentication has become an essential part of modern-day security systems, especially in financial institutions like banks. A face recognition-based ATM is a biometric authentication system, that uses facial recognition technology to verify the identity of bank account holders during ATM transactions. This technology offers a secure and convenient alternative to traditional ATM transactions that rely on PIN numbers for verification. The proposed system captures users' pictures and compares it with the stored image in the bank's database to authenticate the transaction. The technology also offers additional benefits such as reducing the risk of fraud and theft, as well as speeding up the transaction process. However, privacy and data security concerns remain, and it is important for the banking sector to instrument solid security actions to protect customers' personal information. The proposed system consists of two stages: the first stage captures the user's facial image using a camera and performs pre-processing, including face detection and alignment. In the second stage, machine learning algorithms compare the pre-processed image with the stored image in the database. The results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of using face recognition for ATM authentication, which can enhance the security of ATMs and reduce the risk of fraud.

  • In this paper, we try to solve the frequency shortage due to the increase of LTE terminals and the traffic jam caused by the inefficient WiFi connection method. The proposed LTE-WIFI Vertical Handover method uses a pre-authentication method of the AP through LTE and a method of controlling the access AP of the terminal using the RADIUS server. Through the simulation, the proposed method shows that the access speed of the AP is improved by about 95% compared to the conventional connection method, and the connection speed is improved by about 18% compared to the conventional method. Providing seamless AP through pre-authentication system and improving wireless network speed through AP access distribution can solve LTE frequency shortage problem and improve wireless network usage satisfaction.

  • In Korea, various policies are implemented so that the socially disadvantaged (disabled, elderly, pregnant women, temporary disabled, etc.) can easily access individual facilities and areas. As the nation's interest in the socially disadvantaged increases, the need for BF certification is also emerging in buildings in private facilities. However, this system requires a lot of cost and time in the examination process, so if certification fails, social costs and time losses are high. To solve this problem, this paper presents a measurement plan for mixed reality devices using HoloLens, a mixed reality device hardware that can pre-check BF certification based on augmented reality, and Unity 3D, MRTK, a development tool.
