Abstract: Disclosed is an automatic dependent surveillance data protection method which is performed by an authentication server. The automatic dependent surveillance data protection method includes receiving an authentication request of an ADS-B receiver from at least one client, performing authentication of the ADS-B receiver in response to the authentication request, issuing a certificate of the ADS-B receiver when the authentication of the ADS-B receiver is valid, and transmitting the issued certificate of the ADS-B receiver to the client and at least one authentication information sharing client.

Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and a method that chooses an object to be preferentially controlled based on an accident risk degree and hazard and controls the chosen object. In the present invention, it is possible to choose and control a ship having high hazard calculated with trajectory prediction, current operation state information, and past history information under a traffic situation in which the ships are concentrated, by priority. The ship having high hazard is chosen by calculating and applying various history information including an accident record, an entry history of an operator, an aging degree history of the ship, and a steering feature history by using a collision risk on a real-time trajectory collision risk and past history information and different warnings are given during a control for each level.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and apparatus for masking a privacy area of an image. The method for masking a privacy area of an image includes: detecting a privacy area required to be protected in an image; and performing masking on the image. An important area (a face area of a person, a number plate area of a vehicle, a window area of a house, etc.) detected from an image inputted through a CCTV camera can be effectively and easily encrypted, scrambled, decoded, and descrambled. Also, the position of the important area detected before or after the important area is scrambled can be maintained to be consistent without having to use a metadata file. In addition, a scrambling algorithm of the same key value can be applicable regardless of the size of the important area. As a result, the system efficiency can be enhanced by effectively protecting personal information compared with a CCTV-based video security system.

Abstract: A system and method for image information processing are disclosed. The system for image information processing includes: at least one image pickup terminal for providing image data picked up through a camera; an image information processing server for processing data collected from at least one image pickup terminal into data of a new format; and an application server for receiving the processed data from the image information processing server and providing the same to at least one user terminal. The amount of transmission data can be reduced and the reliability of information security can be increased since it is possible to allocate unique IDS to a plurality of image pickup terminals and application servers and identify the image pickup terminals and application servers only by their unique IDs without containing any particular information upon data transmission.

Abstract: There is provided a system and method for providing an application service using image data. One image data processing server collects images (for example, still images and moving images) captured by various kinds of image capturing apparatuses, such as CCTV systems and processes the collected images into data required to provide application services. A plurality of application service servers only provide processed data of the image data processing server without requiring an additional process to a display device of a user. Accordingly, the configuration of each of the application service servers is simplified to thereby reduce manufacturing costs.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for processing image information are provided. The apparatus for processing image information includes an image capturing device and an image information server for receiving and storing an image captured by the image capturing device and adds information on the image capturing device and signature information to image data obtained by the image capturing device. Accordingly, the device information and the signature information can be added to the image data obtained by the image capturing device to maintain security of the image data and use the image data as digital proof when a specific event is generated.

Abstract: An access pointer for interconnecting a power line communication (PLC) network of a home network and a wireless network and a method therefor are provided. When data is received from the PLC network through media access control of a data link layer, data on upper layers above a network layer in the received data is converted into a format suitable to a wireless network layer. The converted data is transmitted to the wireless network through the media access control of the data link layer. Accordingly, the PLC network and the wireless network are easily interconnected.

Abstract: An access control method and system for multiple accessing entities are provided. The access control method includes generating a plurality of integrated identifiers (IDs) respectively corresponding a plurality of individual ID groups, each having the individual IDs of a number of entities; if multiple accessing entities issue a request for access to a service, extracting an integrated ID corresponding to a list of the individual IDs of the multiple accessing entities; and searching for an access control policy corresponding to the extracted integrated ID and the ID of the service and performing access control on the multiple accessing entities according to the identified access control policy. Therefore, it is possible to efficiently control the access of multiple accessing entities to a service.

Abstract: Provided are an apparatus and method for cryptographing and/or deciphering an image. The apparatus includes an image segmenting unit, a random image generating unit, a cryptographing unit, and a phase card generating unit. The image segmenting unit segments an input binary image into images. The random image generating unit generates as many random images as the segmented images. The cryptographing unit performs XOR operations on the segmented images and the random images on a one-to-one basis to produce as many cryptographed images as the segmented images. The phase card generating unit assigns phase values of &pgr; and 0 to black and white pixels of the cryptographed images to generate phase cards corresponding to the cryptographed images.
