AN EFFICIENT IDENTITY BASED AUTHENTICATION PROTOCOL BY USING PASSWORDIJNSA Journal
In a distributed system, authentication protocols are the basis of security to ensure that these protocols function properly. Passwords are one of the most common authentication protocol used nowadays. Because of low entropy of passwords makes the systems vulnerable to password guessing attacks. This paper presents a simple scheme that strengthens password-based authentication protocols and helps prevent dictionary attacks, replay attacks and man in the middle attacks etc., The proposed scheme presents a new password authentication protocol by using the user and server system identification/serial number. Here there is no possibility to store the user passwords so an attacker who gets the password cannot use it directly to gain immediate access and compromise security.

Combat the Latest Two-Factor Authentication Evasion TechniquesIBM Security
In the wake of 2005 FFIEC regulation calling for stronger security methods, financial institutions have adopted two-factor authentication (2FA) as a means to mitigate online fraud.
Historically 2FA measures such as security questions, one time passwords, physical tokens, SMS authentications and USB tokens have been able to effectively stop fraud attacks. However, in the fast paced arms race that is the war against financial crime, cybercriminals are starting to take the upper hand by developing increasingly sophisticated techniques that bypass 2FA.
In this presentation, Ori Bach, Senior Security Strategist at IBM Trusteer demonstrates several of the 2FA beating techniques and explains how cybercriminals:
- Highjack authenticated banking sessions by directly taking over victims computers
- Make use fake overlay messages to trick victims to surrender their tokens
- Beat one time passwords sent to mobile devices
- Purchase fraud tool-kits to bypass 2FA

Modern Method for Detecting Web Phishing Using Visual Cryp-tography (VC) and ...IJERA Editor
Phishing is an attempt by an individual or a group to thieve personal confidential information such as pass-words, credit card information etc from unsuspecting victims for identity theft, financial gain and other fraudu-lent activities. Here an image based (QR codes) authentication using Visual Cryptography (VC) is used. The use of Visual cryptography is explored to convert the QR code into two shares and both these shares can then be transmitted separately. One Time Passwords (OTP) is passwords which are valid only for a session to validate the user within a specified amount of time. In this paper we are presenting a new authentication scheme for se-cure OTP distribution in phishing website detection through VC and QR codes.
A secure communication in smart phones using two factor authenticationeSAT Journals
Abstract Most secure systems face security attacks mainly at the client side. Two Factor Authentication (TFA) provides improved protection to the system at the client side by prompting to provide something they know and something they have. This system uses a one time password(OTP) generation method which doesn’t require client-server communication, which frees the system from cost of sending a dynamic password each time the client wants to login. The OTP generation uses the factors that are unique to the user and is installed on a smart phone in Android platform owned by the user. An OTP is valid for a minutes time, after which, is useless. The system thus provides better client level security – a simple low cost method which protects system from hacking techniques like key logging, phishing, shoulder surfing, etc. Keywords—Authentication, OTP, key logging, phishing

A Novel Passwordless Authentication Scheme for Smart Phones Using Elliptic Cu...ADEIJ Journal
Today, a large number of people access internet through their smart phones to login to their bank accounts, social networking accounts and various other blogs. In such a scenario, user authentication has emerged as a major security issue in mobile internet. To date, password based authentication schemes have been extensively used to provide authentication and security. The password based authentication has always been cumbersome for the users because human memory is transient and remembering a large number of long and complicated passwords is impossible. Also, it is vulnerable to various kinds of attacks like brute force, rainbow table, dictionary, sniffing, shoulder surfing and so on. As the main contribution of this paper, a new passwordless authentication scheme for smart phones is presented which not only resolves all the weaknesses of password based schemes but also provide robust security. The proposed scheme relieves users from memorizing and storing long and complicated passwords. The proposed scheme uses ECDSA which is based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). ECC has remarkable strength and efficiency advantages in terms of bandwidth, key sizes and computational overheads over other public key cryptosystems. It is therefore suitable for resource constraint devices like smart phone. Furthermore, the proposed scheme incorporate CAPTCHA which play a very important role in protecting the web resources from spamming and other malicious activities. To the best of our knowledge, until now no passwordless user authentication protocol based on ECC has been proposed for smart phones. Finally, the security and functionality analysis shows that compared with existing password based authentication schemes, the proposed scheme is more secure and efficient.

Keylogging, one of the unsafe malware, is the movement of recording the keys struck on a console with the end goal that the individual utilizing the console is obscure about the way that their activities are being watched. It has legitimate use in examination of human PC collaboration and is considered as the primary danger for business and individual exercises. It tends to be utilized to catch passwords and other secret data entered by means of the console. Subsequently, counteraction of keylogging is significant and severe validation is needed for it. Planning of secure confirmation conventions is very testing, taking into account that different sorts of root units dwell in Personal Computers to watch clients conduct. There are different keylogging procedures, stretching out from equipment and programming based techniques to acoustic assessment. Human contribution in confirmation conventions, however ensuring, isnt straightforward. This paper surveys different examination regions which spread convention confirmations utilized safely forestalling the representation of keylogging assaults. Dr. C.

Keystroke with Data Leakage Detection for Secure Email AuthenticationYogeshIJTSRD
The user authentication is the important factor which allows the user to use a particular software. The user authentication is also performed in various kinds of social media such as Gmail, Facebook, etc. The traditional password system is used for user authentication. But this technique has a lot of demerits in it. Some hackers also cracks the password and perform some unwanted actions in the user authentication. In order to remove the difficulties in this traditional password technique and to provide additional security in user authentication, the keystroke with data leakage detection for secure email authentication is designed. This system uses Keystroke Dynamics. This system consists of five different types of modules such as Email Framework Construction, User Enrolment, Keystroke Authentication, Data Sharing and Data Leakage Detection. This system gets the details of the user such as name and email. Then it allows to enter the password. This password is stored along with the keystroke dynamics data such as the typing speed of the password and the threshold value. Both the Keystroke dynamics data and the original password are stored in the database. When the user wants to log into the system, the user has to give the password according to the keystroke dynamics data. Then only, the user can log into the system. Hence this system can also be used in Cyber security and provide security and privacy for the user data. Mrs. V. Hemalatha | V. Boominathan | K. Harithas | P. Raj Kumar | S.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
