Cloud computing provides each consumer with a large-scale computing tool. Different Cyber Attacks can potentially target cloud computing systems, as most cloud computing systems offer services to many people who are not known to be trustworthy. Therefore, to protect that Virtual Machine from threats, a cloud computing system must incorporate some security monitoring framework. There is a tradeoff between the security level of the security system and the performance of the system in this scenario. If strong security is needed, then the service of stronger security using more rules or patterns is provided, since it needs much more computing resources. A new way of security system is introduced in this work in cloud environments to the VM on account of resources allocated to customers are ease. The main spike of Fog computing is part of the cloud server's work in the ongoing study tells the step-by-step cloud server to change the tremendous measurement of information because the endeavor apps are relocated to the cloud to keep the framework cost. The cloud server is devouring and changing a huge measure of information step by step to reduce complications. The Medical Data Health-Care (MDHC) records are stored in Cloud datacenters and Fog layer based on the guard intensity and the key is provoked for ingress the file. The monitoring center sustains the Activity Log, Risk Table, and Health Records. Cloud computing and Fog computing were combined in this paper to review data movement and safe information about MDHC.

The proportion of attacks via office documents is increasing in recent incidents. Although the security of office applications has been strengthened gradually, the attacks through the office documents are still effective due to the sophisticated use of social engineering techniques and advanced attack techniques. In this paper, we propose a method for detecting malicious OOXML(Office Open XML) documents and a framework for detection. To do this, malicious files used in the attack and benign files were collected from the malicious code repository and the search engine. By analyzing the malicious code types of collected files, we identified six "suspicious object" elements that are meaningful in determining whether they are malicious in a document. In addition, we implemented an OOXML document-based malware detection framework based on the detection method to classify the collected files and found that 98.45% of malicious filesets were detected.

In the current technological society, where various technologies are converged into one and being transformed into new technologies, new cyber attacks are being made just as they keep pace with the changes in society. In particular, due to the convergence of various attacks into one, it is difficult to protect the system with only the existing security system. A lot of information is being generated to respond to such cyber attacks. However, recklessly generated vulnerability information can induce confusion by providing unnecessary information to administrators. Therefore, this paper proposes a mechanism to assist in the analysis of emerging cyberattack convergence technologies by providing differentiated vulnerability information to managers by learning documents using deep learning-based language learning models, extracting vulnerability information and classifying them according to the MITRE ATT&CK framework.

IoT(Internet of Things) 기기를 활용하는 분야가 증가함에 따라 스마트 팩토리, 스마트 그리드 등 융합환경이 발전되었으며, 융합환경이 상호연결되는 IoBE(Internet of Things Blended Environment)가 조성되고 있다. 그러나, IoBE 구성요소가 복잡해짐에 따라 공격 표면이 증가하고, 기존에 알려진 보안위협이 융·복합되어 새로운 형태의 보안위협인 복합위협(BT, Blended Threat)이 발생할 수 있다. BT는 다양한 보안위협이 복합적으로 연계되어 발생함에 따라 예측하여 대응하기에 기존 보안위협보다 상대적으로 어려우며, 이에 대응방안 간의 조합을 통해 보안위협에 유동적으로 대응하는 동적 보안 프레임워크가 필요하다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 BT에 대한 대응방안 동적 조합 프레임워크를 제안한다.

The National Cyber Capability Assessment(NCCA) could be used as meaningful information for improving national cyber security policy because it provides information on the elements necessary for strengthening national cyber capabilities and the level of each country. However, there were few studies on improving cyber capabilities using the NCCA result in Korea. Therefore, we analyzed the result of National Cyber Power Index(NCPI) conducted by Belfer Center of Harvard Univ. by applying modified-IPA method to derive cybersecurity policy agendas for Korea. As a result, the need to set agendas on surveillance and offensive cyber capability and improve the effectiveness of policy implementation for intelligence and defense was drawn. Moreover, we suggested need for in-depth study of each policy agenda deduced from preceding research data as a future tasks. And it is expected to increase practical use of NCCA for domestic policy analysis by developing and using our own NCCA model which considered analysis framework proposed in this study.

Recently, the patterns of cyber attack through internet have been various and have become more complicated and thus it is difficult to detect a network intruder effectively and to response the intrusion quickly. Therefore, It is almost not possible to chase the real location of a network intruder and to isolate the Intruder from network in UDP based DoS or DDoS attacks spoofing source IP address and in TCP based detour connection attacks. In this paper, we propose active security architecture on active network to correspond to various cyber attacks promptly. Security management framework is designed using active technology, and security control mechanism to chase and isolate a network intruder is implemented. We also test the operation of the active security mechanism implemented on test_bed according to several attack scenarios and analyze the experiment results.

Contrary to past critical infrastructure network, current critical infrastructure network is adopting IoT devices and efficient management system using the external networks. Using this system, productivity and management efficiency could be enhanced compared to past critical infrastructure network. But cybersecurity issue could be occurred at external network connection, so cybersecurity guideline is necessary. However, critical infrastructure organizations tend to use the cybersecurity guideline issued by government because it is hard to develop cybersecurity guideline on their own. But the government's cybersecurity guideline isn't suitable for the critical infrastructure network because it doesn't include critical infrastructure's specific characteristics. Therefor, we suggested the development method of cybersecurity guideline for the critical infrastructure network based on analysing cybersecurity guideline standards and critical infrastructure networks.

Theorists of war have often used Clausewitz's trinity theory as a framework for analyzing war strategies and histories. Heretofore, studies on cyber warfare have focused primarily on laws, policies, structuring organizations, manpower, and training pertaining to preparing the cyberspace for war. Currently, studies highlighting the comparative characteristics of war in cyberspace, how it differs from conventional warfare, and analytical frameworks for understanding war in cyberspace are rare. Using Clausewitz's trinity theory, this paper interprets the essence of war from the perspectives of (1) Intellect, (2) Bravery, and (3) Passion, to propose an analytical model for understanding war in cyberspace, one that factors in the intrinsic qualities and characteristics of cyberspace under spatial and temporal constraints. Furthermore, this paper applies the aforementioned analytical model to the Iraq War and concludes with a theoretical illustration that cyber warfare played a significant role in winning the war.

Today, with the wide use of mobile devices, the amount of business transactions conducted through such devices is increasing drastically. However, there are several limitations in the area of authentication for mobile use, which requires strong authentication mechanisms to satisfy security and convenience requirements. The proposed model and application system provide a framework to ensure the security and reliability of the flow of biometric information for telebiometric applications using mobile devices. We also specify protocols for each model and implement a mobile telebiometric application to improve security vulnerabilities compared to storage in a microSD match on card (MOC) based on the proposed model. As a consequence of this implementation, we propose substantial guidelines for security countermeasures from both technical and managerial perspectives in order to establish a safe mobile environment for the use of telebiometric systems.

Recently, there has been an increase in the number of social engineering techniques that indirectly attack the target system administrators or organizational weaknesses rather than the traditional technical cyber attacks that directly attacked the target systems. Accordingly, the type analysis and case study of social engineering techniques are being actively conducted. There has been, however, little effort to derive an analysis model that systematically analyzes social engineering based cyberspace operations. Therefore, this paper aims at building a Social Engineering Based Cyberspace Operations Analysis Model, which can be used as a reference framework for a case study or attack scenario generation of social engineering based cyberspace operations.
