Abstract

Recently, demand for cloud computing has increased and remote access due to home work and external work has increased. In addition, a new security paradigm is required in the current situation where the need to be vigilant against not only external attacker access but also internal access such as internal employee access to work increases and various attack techniques are sophisticated. As a result, the network security model applying Zero-Trust, which has the core principle of doubting everything and not trusting it, began to attract attention in the security industry. Zero Trust Security monitors all networks, requires authentication in order to be granted access, and increases security by granting minimum access rights to access requesters. In this paper, we explain zero trust and zero trust architecture, and propose a new cloud security system for strengthening access control that overcomes the limitations of existing security systems using zero trust and blockchain and can be used by various companies.

최근 클라우드 컴퓨팅의 수요가 증가하고 자택근무 및 외부 업무로 인한 원격접속의 증가했다. 또한 외부 공격자의 접근뿐만이 아니라 내부 직원의 업무 접속과 같은 내부에서의 접근을 경계해야 할 필요성이 증가함과 동시에 다양한 공격 기법들이 고도화되는 현 상황에서 그에 맞는 새로운 보안 패러다임이 요구된다. 이로 인해 모든 것을 의심하고 신뢰하지 않는다는 핵심 원칙을 가진 제로 트러스트(Zero-Trust)를 적용한 네트워크 보안 모델이 보안업계에서 주목받기 시작했다. 제로 트러스트 보안은 모든 네트워크를 감시하고 접근을 허용 받기 위해선 먼저 인증을 받아야 하며 접근 요청자에 대한 최소한의 접근 권한을 부여함으로써 보안성을 높인다. 본 논문에서는 제로 트러스트와 제로 트러스트 아키텍처에 대해 설명하고, 제로 트러스트와 블록체인을 이용하여 기존 보안 시스템의 한계점을 극복하고 다양한 기업에서 활용할 수 있고 접근제어 강화를 위한 새로운 클라우드 보안 체계를 제안하고자 한다.
