  • The government and companies build a DDoS correspondence system hastily to protect assets from cyber threats. It has become more and more intelligent and advanced such as DDoS attack. However, when outbreaks of the social incidents such as 7.7 DDoS attack(2009.7.7) or cases of the direct damage occurred, information security systems(ISS) only become the issue in the short term. As usual, sustained investment about ISS is a negative recognition. Since the characteristic of ISS is hard to recognize the effectiveness of them before incidents occurs. Also, results of incidents occurred classify attack and detection. Detailed and objective measurement criterion to measure effectiveness and efficiency of ISS is not existed. Recently, it is progress that evaluation and certification about for the information security management system(ISMS). Since these works propose only a general guideline, it is difficult to utilize as a result of ISMS improvement for organization. Therefore, this paper proposes a framework to develop main criteria by a correspondence strategy and process. It is able to detailed and objective measurements.

  • Cyber hackings are increasing and becoming more intelligent. The government and private companies conduct various information protection activities by investing lots of money and employing security personnel to protect import ant assets and personal information. It is important to evaluate the efficiency of the information protection activities that cost lots of money and manpower. However, the studies on the efficiency of the information protection activities were mainly conducted for government agencies the information of which is more readily available. This study suggests a model that can evaluate the efficiency of the activities of information protection and information security certification of various private companies. Our model evaluates the efficiency of the information protection activities by applying AHP and DEA on the information that are publicly announced by the private companies. Our model identifies the DMUs that are efficiently operated and suggests the improvement policies for the DMU that are non-efficiently operated.

  • Among the various security threats in online games, the use of game bots is the most serious problem. In this paper, we propose a framework for user behavior analysis for bot detection in online games. Specifically, we focus on party play that reflects the social activities of gamers: In a Massively Multi-user Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG), party play log includes a distinguished information that can classify game users under normal-user and abnormal-user. That is because the bot users' main activities target on the acquisition of cyber assets. Through a statistical analysis of user behaviors in game activity logs, we establish the threshold levels of the activities that allow us to identify game bots. Also, we build a knowledge base of detection rules based on this statistical analysis. We apply these rule reasoner to the sixth most popular online game in the world. As a result, we can detect game bot users with a high accuracy rate of 95.92%.

  • Recently, cyber attacks on national infrastructure facilities have continued to occur. As a result, the vulnerabilities of ICS-CERTs have more than doubled from last year, and the vulnerabilities to industrial control systems such as nuclear facilities are increasing day by day. Most control system operators formulate vulnerability countermeasures based on the vulnerability information sources of industrial control systems provided by ICS-CERT in the United States. However, it is difficult to apply this to the security of domestic control systems because ICS-CERT does not contain all relevant vulnerability information and does not provide vulnerabilities to domestic manufacturer's products. In this research, we will utilize publicly available vulnerability-related information such as CVE, CWE, ICS-CERT, and CPE to discover vulnerabilities that may exist in control system assets and may occur in the future. I proposed a plan that can predict possible vulnerabilities and applied it to information on major domestic control systems.

  • As technology develops, the latest security threats on the network applied to users are increasing. By attacking industrial or corporate systems with malicious purposes, hackers cause many social problems such as confidential information leakage, cyber terrorism, infringement of information assets, and financial damage. Due to the complex and diversified threats, the current security personnel alone are not enough to detect and analyze all threats. In particular, the Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) used in industrial infrastructures that collect, analyze, and return static data 24 hours a day, 265 days a year, is very vulnerable to real-time security threats. This paper introduces security information and event management (SIEM), a powerful integrated security management system that can monitor the state of the system in real time and detect security threats. Next, we compare SIEM solutions from various companies with the open source SIEM (OSSIM) from AlienVault, which is distributed as an open source, and present cases using the OSSIM and how to utilize it.

  • Cyber attacks on national infrastructure, including large-scale power outages in Ukraine, have continued in recent years. As a result, ICS-CERT vulnerabilities have doubled compared to last year, and vulnerabilities to industrial control systems are increasing day by day. Most control system operators develop vulnerability countermeasures based on the vulnerability information sources provided by ICS-CERT in the United States. However, it is not applicable to the security of domestic control systems because it does not provide weaknesses in Korean manufacturers' products. Therefore, this study presents a vulnerability analysis framework that integrates CVE, CWE, CAPE, and CPE information related to the vulnerability based on ICS-CERT information (1843 cases). It also identifies assets of nuclear facilities by using CPE information and analyzes vulnerabilities using CVE and ICS-CERT. In the past, only 8% of ICS-CERT's vulnerability information was searched for information on any domestic nuclear facility during vulnerability analysis, but more than 70% of the vulnerability information could be searched using the proposed methodology.

  • Cloud computing is now used by most companies, business centres and academic institutions to embrace new computer technology. Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) are limited to certain services, missing some of the assets requested by their customers, it means that different clouds need to interconnect to share resources and interoperate between them. The clouds may be interconnected in different characteristics and systems, and the network may be vulnerable to volatility or interference. While information technology and cloud computing are also advancing to accommodate the growing worldwide application, criminals use cyberspace to perform cybercrimes. Cloud services deployment is becoming highly prone to threats and intrusions. The unauthorised access or destruction of records yields significant catastrophic losses to organisations or agencies. Human intervention and Physical devices are not enough for protection and monitoring of cloud services; therefore, there is a need for more efficient design for cyber defence that is adaptable, flexible, robust and able to detect dangerous cybercrime such as a Denial of Service (DOS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) in heterogeneous cloud computing platforms and make essential real-time decisions for forensic investigation. This paper aims to develop a framework for digital forensic for the detection of cybercrime in a joined heterogeneous cloud setup. We developed a Digital Forensics model in this paper that can function in heterogeneous joint clouds. We used Unified Modeling Language (UML) specifically activity diagram in designing the proposed framework, then for deployment, we used an architectural modelling system in developing a framework. We developed an activity diagram that can accommodate the variability and complexities of the clouds when handling inter-cloud resources.

  • Current leakage of industrial technologies with revealing state secret against nation is gradually increasing and scope of the spill is diversified from technology-oriented leakage to new economic security sector like information and communication, electrical and electronic, defense industry, illegal export of strategic material, economic order disturbance by foreign country, infringement of intellectual property, etc. So the spill damage can affect not only leaked company but also national interests and entire domestic industry. According to statistics from National Industrial Security Center of National Intelligence Service, a major cause of technology leakage is not only by external things about hacking and malignant code, but internal leakage of former and current employees account for about 80%. And technology leakage due to temptation of money and personal interests followed by technology leakage of subcontractor is steadily increased. Most studies in the field of security have tended to focus on measuring security capability of company in order to prevent leakage core assets or developing measurement Indicators for management rather than security activities of the company members that is most important. Therefore, this study analyzes the effect of most underlying security education in security activities on security capabilities of enterprise. As a result, it indicates that security education have a positive(+) correlation with security capabilities.

  • Modern society is developing rapidly and technologies that provide convenience in living are developing day by day. On the other hand, the development of cyber attacks that threaten cybersecurity is developing faster, and it still adversely affects the industrial environment, and industrial damage is steadily occurring every year. Industrial security is an activity that safely protects major assets or technologies of companies and organizations from these attacks. Therefore, it is a situation that requires professional manpower for security. Currently, the manpower situation for security is staffed, but knowledge of the understanding and concept of industrial security jobs is insufficient. In other words, there is a lack of professional manpower for industrial security. It is the NCS that came out to solve this problem. NCS is the state standardized ability (knowledge, attitude, skills, etc.) necessary to perform duties in the industrial field. NCS can systematically design the curriculum using NCS as well as help in hiring personnel, and NCS can be applied to the national qualification system. However, in the field of industrial security, NCS has not yet been developed and is still having difficulties in hiring personnel and curriculum. Although the NCS system in the field of industrial security has not been developed, this paper proposes the industrial security NCS to solve the problem of hiring professionals later and to help the field of industrial security NCS to be established later.
