Abstract: Wireless Networkinfrastructure has Developed Rapidly with the Popularity of Personal Mobiledevices. Userscan Use Mobile Devices to Roam the Wireless Network Environment Conductingtransactions such as Sending Messages and Accessing the Internet. Networkcommunication has Become a Lifestyle Necessity. the Application of Information Technologyproducts also Brings IT Security Issues. the Wireless Network Environment Makesmessages Susceptible to Eavesdropping and Data Tampering Attacks. in Addition,the Mobile Device Computation Ability Presents Power Limiting Issues. Therefore,achieving Efficiency and Security Requirements is more Difficult in Mobiledevice Data Transfer over a Wireless Network Compared with a Hard-Wiredcomputer Network. Insecurity Issues Abound in Peer to Peer (P2P) Networks.Conducting Identity Authentication Recognized Certified Legal Membership Andperforming Message Delivery and Shared Information are Critical Issues. Theidentity (ID) Authentication and Certification for this Type of Network Hasbecome an Important Issue. the Paperpresents a Secure Communication Method Using Self-Certified Sign-Cryption Witha Blind Signature Scheme Based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) Forhybrid P2P Networks. Theoreticalanalysis Shows Better Secure Identification-and-Authentication Features.

Abstract: Recently, the telecare medical information system, which enables various healthcare delivery services, has been paid more and more attention in countries with aging populations. Using the telecare medical information system, it is possible to bring the advantages of telemedical directly into the patients home. At the same time, it faces some common security threats, thus, only authorized users should be granted the access to this system for the privacy concern. There are many authentication schemes studying protection of user medical information. Unfortunately, these schemes are still vulnerable to some common cyber attacks or has inefficient computational and communication cost. To remedy the weaknesses of these schemes, we propose an enhanced scheme based on elliptic curve cryptography to ensure necessary security and reduce computation load in this paper. By security analysis, we also demonstrate that our scheme is secure and efficient. Therefore, our scheme is suitable for telecare medical information system.

Abstract: The classical Montgomery ladder algorithm (MPL) is an effective way to improve the operational efficiency of elliptic curve cryptography. First, an improved MPL is proposed by loop unrolling, and then the Montgomery elliptic curve encryption and decryption process is realized using data parallel and task parallel. The experimental results show that the ratio of acceleration parallel processing efficiency can reach 70%, and the method can effectively improve the speed of elliptic curve encryption algorithm.

Abstract: Industrial wireless control network brought great convenience in industrial production, and security issues was very important. This paper analyzing the characteristics of the wireless industry control network, and presented a perspective which based on elliptic curve cryptography system, at last, introduction to design a hierarchic structure of the ECC integral solution, then make it better applied to the industrial wireless environment.

Abstract: Along with the development of information technology, the information security of power industry is becoming an important problem in the stability of power systems. In order to solve the key distribution problems of feeder automation system, a key agreement and mutual authentication scheme based on elliptic curve cryptograph techniques is proposed. The mutual authentication and agreement on a secure session key is realized, between feeder terminal unit (FTU) and regional substation. By using the ECC techniques, greater security with fewer bits is provided. As the result, the requirement of bandwidth is decreased, furthermore, computational burden and storage requirement is also lowered on the FTU.

Abstract: RFID technology plays an important role in our daily life nowadays. It widely used in the automatic identification system by embedding the tag into product. However, some security risks presented due to radio frequency signal channel between the tag and the reader which may lead privacy disclosure for the user. Various solutions are proposed to resole to security issues in RFID system, but there still presented some limitations. A security elliptic curve cryptography based authentication protocol is presented in this paper to preserve the privacy of the RFID system. The proposed protocol provides mutual authentication and a security communication channel between the tag and the reader. By the security analysis, our protocol can resist common passive and active attack; moreover, it also can provide forward security.
