Abstract: Disclosed are an oral film and stick jelly containing glutathione and a milk thistle extract. Provided are an oral disintegrating film, an oral mucosal adhesive film, and a stick jelly that contain glutathione, a milk thistle extract, or the like as an active ingredient, and thus are highly efficacious in improving absorption in the oral mucosa, antioxidant activity, and anti-inflammatory activity, strengthening immunity, and enhancing liver function of humans and companion animals.

Abstract: A memory erasing method and apparatus for erasing important data of a nonvolatile memory within the apparatus to prevent illegal access using attitude information measured in an inertial measurement sensor and a low power microprocessor regardless of the power supply state of the apparatus. The apparatus includes a power switching circuit unit for selecting one from among an external power source and a battery. An inertial measurement sensor measures attitude information of the memory erasing apparatus, using power supplied from the external power source or the battery. A low power microprocessor erases important data from a memory device in a first manner using power from the external power source, and in a second manner using power from the battery, the first manner being different from the second manner.

Abstract: A random number generation method and apparatus using a low-power microprocessor is provided. In the random number generation method, a low-power microprocessor determines whether external power is supplied to a random number generator. The low-power microprocessor updates an internal state of the random number generator based on a first scheme if it is determined that the external power is supplied to the random number generator. The low-power microprocessor updates the internal state of the random number generator based on a second scheme different from the first scheme if it is determined that the external power is not supplied to the random number generator.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for verifying the integrity of firmware of an embedded system is provided. The apparatus for verifying the integrity of firmware of an embedded system includes a target integrity code obtainment unit for obtaining a target integrity code of firmware of the embedded system. A source integrity code obtainment unit obtains a source integrity code of source firmware. An integrity determination unit determines whether integrity of the firmware of the embedded system is maintained, by using the target integrity code and the source integrity code.

The parallel processing shrinking key generator includes: a selection linear feedback shift register (LFSR); a source LFSR; a selection logic circuit for selecting one of a source bit of the source LFSR and a predetermined input bit according to a selection bit of the selection LFSR; an index counter for assigning an index where output bits of the selection logic circuit are stored at a next clocking of a clock signal; and an output amount register for shifting an output bit of the selection logic circuit according to the assignment of the index counter.

Abstract: A tamper detection method and a data storage device using the same are provided. The tamper detection method includes sensing a value of pressure applied to a data storage device using a pressure sensor, comparing the sensed pressure value with an initial pressure value sensed at an initial operation time of the data storage device, and detecting malicious tamper by comparing a threshold pressure value varying with the number of loads applied to the data storage device when the sensed pressure value is smaller than the initial pressure value.
