Abstract: In recent years, it has been proposed security
architecture for sensor network.[2][4]. One of these, TinySec by Chris
Kalof, Naveen Sastry, David Wagner had proposed Link layer security
architecture, considering some problems of sensor network. (i.e :
energy, bandwidth, computation capability,etc). The TinySec employs
CBC_mode of encryption and CBC-MAC for authentication based on
SkipJack Block Cipher. Currently, This TinySec is incorporated in the
TinyOS for sensor network security.
This paper introduces TinyHash based on general hash algorithm.
TinyHash is the module in order to replace parts of authentication and
integrity in the TinySec. it implies that apply hash algorithm on
TinySec architecture. For compatibility about TinySec, Components
in TinyHash is constructed as similar structure of TinySec. And
TinyHash implements the HMAC component for authentication and
the Digest component for integrity of messages. Additionally, we
define the some interfaces for service associated with hash algorithm.
Abstract: This paper proposes a VPN Accelerator Board
(VPN-AB), a virtual private network (VPN) protocol designed for
trust channel security system (TCSS). TCSS supports safety
communication channel between security nodes in internet. It
furnishes authentication, confidentiality, integrity, and access control
to security node to transmit data packets with IPsec protocol. TCSS
consists of internet key exchange block, security association block,
and IPsec engine block. The internet key exchange block negotiates
crypto algorithm and key used in IPsec engine block. Security
Association blocks setting-up and manages security association
information. IPsec engine block treats IPsec packets and consists of
networking functions for communication. The IPsec engine block
should be embodied by H/W and in-line mode transaction for high
speed IPsec processing. Our VPN-AB is implemented with high speed
security processor that supports many cryptographic algorithms and
in-line mode. We evaluate a small TCSS communication environment,
and measure a performance of VPN-AB in the environment. The
experiment results show that VPN-AB gets a performance throughput
of maximum 15.645Gbps when we set the IPsec protocol with
3DES-HMAC-MD5 tunnel mode.
Abstract: Extensive use of the Internet coupled with the
marvelous growth in e-commerce and m-commerce has created a
huge demand for information security. The Secure Socket Layer
(SSL) protocol is the most widely used security protocol in the
Internet which meets this demand. It provides protection against
eaves droppings, tampering and forgery. The cryptographic
algorithms RC4 and HMAC have been in use for achieving security
services like confidentiality and authentication in the SSL. But recent
attacks against RC4 and HMAC have raised questions in the
confidence on these algorithms. Hence two novel cryptographic
algorithms MAJE4 and MACJER-320 have been proposed as
substitutes for them. The focus of this work is to demonstrate the
performance of these new algorithms and suggest them as dependable
alternatives to satisfy the need of security services in SSL. The
performance evaluation has been done by using practical
implementation method.
