The pandemic caused by the COVID-19 virus, which has lasted for the past three years, has changed society and the way people live in many ways. These changes also affect cyberspace, so the pre-pandemic information security model and standards have limitations when applied to the current situation. In this paper, a new method to improve the information security model of public institutions was proposed in consideration of various situations in the new normal era. In other words, through the proposed information security model, the possibility of external intrusion is blocked in advance through the policy and technical supplementation of remote work, which is a weakness of the existing information security operation of public institutions. Also, how to prevent abnormal authentication attempts by building a secure VPN environment, how to prevent social engineering cyber attacks targeting fear and uncertainty caused by COVID-19, and how to use a smooth network and create a remote work environment. For this purpose, methods for securing service availability were additionally presented.

Recently, research on solving problems that have introduced the concept of smart city in countries and companies around the world is in progress due to various urban problems. A smart city converges the city's ICT, connects all the city's components with a network, collects and delivers data, and consists of a supply chain composed of various IoT products and services. The increase in various cyber security threats and supply chain threats in smart cities is inevitable, in addition to establishing a framework such as supply chain security policy, authentication of each data provider and service according to data linkage and appropriate access control are required in a Zero-Trust point of view. To this end, a smart city security model has been developed for smart city security threats in Korea, but security requirements related to supply chain security and zero trust are insufficient. This paper examines overseas smart city security trends, presents international standard security requirements related to ISMS-P and supply chain security, as well as security requirements for applying zero trust related technologies to domestic smart city security models.

In order to use online financial services, user authentication technology is necessary. Password check through keyboard typing is the most common technique. However, since it became known that key stokes on the keyboard can be intercepted easily, many Internet banking services and easy payment services have adopted the virtual keyboard. However, contrary to the expectation that the virtual keyboard will be safe, there is a risk that key strokes on the virtual keyboard can be leaked. In this paper, we analyzed the possibility of password leaking on the virtual keyboard and presented a password leaking method using mouse event hooking and screen capture in PC operating system. In addition, we inspected the possibility of password leak attacks on several famous Korea Internet banking websites and simple payment services, and as a result, we verified that the password input method through the virtual keyboard in the PC operating system is not secure.

In this article, the authors focus on the use of smart CCTV, a combnation of biometric recognition technology and AI algorithms. In fact, the advancements in relevant technologies brought a significant increase in the use of biometric information - fingerprint, retina, iris or facial recognition - across diverse sectors. Both the public and private sectors, with the developments of biometric technology, widely adopt and use an individual's biometric information for different reasons. For instance, smartphone users highly count on biometric technolgies for the purpose of security. Public and private orgazanitions control an access to confidential information-controlling facilities with biometric technology. Biometric infomration is known to be unique and immutable in the course of one's life. Given the uniquness and immutability, it turned out to be as reliable means for the purpose of authentication and verification. However, the use of biometric information comes with cost, posing a privacy issue. Once it is leaked, there is little chance to recover damages resulting from unauthorized uses. The governments across the country fully understand the threat to privacy rights with the use of biometric information and AI. The EU and the United States amended their data protection laws to regulate it. South Korea aligned with them. Yet, the authors point out that Korean data aprotection law still requires more improvements to minimize a concern over privacy rights arising from the wide use of biometric information. In particular, the authors stress that it is necessary to amend Section (2) of Article 23 of PIPA to reflect the concern by changing the basis for permitting the processing of sensitive information from 'the Statutes' to 'the Acts'.

In recent years, O2O services for real estate sales are widely distributed in web platforms and apps. This allows sellers, buyers, and real estate brokers to quickly and conveniently conduct real estate sales and charter contracts. However, in the O2O-based real estate sales information system, it wastes time and money for real estate buyers due to the posting of fake information, partial correction of the sales information, and intentional non-posting of the sales information. Therefore, we propose a method of detecting the false or not of real estate property information that can occur on the web platform, and design and implement a proposal system for this. To this end, we propose a method of detecting personal identity and property information based on DID, a distributed identity authentication protocol. The false real estate sales information detection system proposed by us can determine the existence of real estate sales information, partially correct the false sales information, or prove whether or not intentionally unpublished in three steps.

Recently, the abnormal weather events and crop damages occurred frequently likely due to climate change. The importance of meteorological data in agricultural research is increasing. Researchers can download weather observation data by accessing the websites provided by the KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration) and the RDA (Rural Development Administration). However, there is a disadvantage that multiple inquiry work is required when a large amount of meteorological data needs to be received. It is inefficient for each researcher to store and manage the data needed for research on an independent local computer in order to avoid this work. In addition, even if all the data were downloaded, additional work is required to find and open several files for research. In this study, data collected by the KMA and RDA were uploaded to GitHub, a remote storage service, and a package was created that allows easy access to weather data using Python. Through this, we propose a method to increase the accessibility and usability of meteorological data for agricultural personnel by adopting a method that allows anyone to take data without an additional authentication process.

Among the many factors that threaten the improvement of public health and quality of life, the proportion of fine dust is not so small, and the kinds and causes of the dust are also diversified. However, the domestic measuring instrument is in the initial stage and the certification system is insignificant. Recognizing the threat of fine dust for a long time, the United States has established a protocol of measurement standards and measurement methods and applied the developed fine dust measuring device authentication system. Through this system, the United States is leading the world's fine dust industry, technology and market. The EPA, FRM and FEM of the fine dust-related protocol were analyzed to reduce the harmful effects of repeated fine dust every year. In addition, light scattering method and spectroscopy method which can measure in real time by measuring method were examined, and the types and characteristics of fine dust measuring instrument of international certification level were analyzed. Finally, development and service plan of the domestic fine dust measuring instrument are presented.

This paper presents an unmanned store management system that can provide inventory management and theft prevention for displayed products using a small camera that can monitor the shelves of sold products in small and medium-sized stores. This system is a service solution that integrates object recognition, real-time communication, security management, access management, and mobile authentication. The proposed system uses a custom YOLOv5-x model to recognize objects on the display, measure quantities in real time, and support real-time data communication with servers through Raspberry Pie. In addition, the number of objects in the database and the object recognition results are compared to detect suspected theft situations and provide burial images at the time of theft. The proposed unmanned store solution is expected to improve the efficiency of small and medium-sized unmanned store operations and contribute to responding to theft.

As the number of coffee shops increases, many people are studying or working at coffee shops. Coffee shop operators have been required to analyze customer visits due to customer turnover and profit problems. Methods such as image analysis, QR code authentication, and Bluetooth beacon have been proposed for these statistics and analysis. However, it is difficult to use due to problems such as invasion of privacy and low accuracy. Therefore, in this study, to solve these problem and provide more accurate in-store congestion information, we propose a crowding measurement method of coffee shop using high frequency signal. There is an advantage in that a high frequency signal replaces the Bluetooth signal, and the transmission range of the signal is limited to the store, thereby increasing the accuracy of the method. To verify the performance of the proposed system, we conducted a comparative experiment with a Bluetooth based system, and as a result, the proposed method showed lower misrecognition rate. Thus, the proposed method will be an effective useful service for providing information on crowding at coffee shops and processing statistics.
