Since the cyber defense has been dependent on commercial products and protection systems, in aspect of the recent trends, our cyber defence ecosystem can be more vulnerable. In case of general defense weapon companies, they have to be observed by the government such as certain proprietary technologies and products for the protection from the enemy. On the contrary, most cyber weapon companies have not been managed like that. For this reason, cyber attack can reach to the inside of our military through the security hole of commercial products. In this paper, we enhanced a military cyber protection ecosystems out of enemy attacks and analyze the hypothetical scenarios to evaluate and verify the vulnerability, and finally more securable ecosystem of military protection system is presented politically and technically.

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.

Purpose: Cyber criminals have affected various markets and the banking system has encountered various kinds of cyberattacks. The purpose of this study is to analyze cybercrime that is an emerging threat and investigate the significant contribution of financial literacy and public awareness on cybercrimes. To understand the security issues and the need for corrective steps, the techniques and strategies used by cyber fraudsters in obtaining unauthorized access and use the financial information for purpose of fraud need to be understood. Research design, data and methodology: A sample of 123 banks employees from 12 commercial banks in Malaysia was surveyed. This study differs from previous studies as it surveyed the employees' awareness, and this approach fills in the gap in existing literature. Results: The financial literacy and public awareness have positive impact on organizational performance effectiveness to combat threat of cybercrime. Some recommendations are also proposed from research findings, for banking industry and government regulations. Conclusion: The present study focuses on banking sector so its findings cannot be generalized to other sectors. Linking these topics has created a new study in combating threat of cybercrimes generally, and specifically in Malaysia. The present study enhances the understanding of customers' role to combat the impact of cybercrimes on performances of banking industry.

The destructive power of cyber threat arrived to until the phase which it threatens to direct and seriously in national security undergoes an important national institutuin hacking event of 2004 and Internet paralysis accidents of 2003. 1. 25. So Cyber terror and Cyber warfare is not the hypothetical enemy situation. It is more actual security situation and identify as magnification of warfare concept of incapacitation national important ability include military command system of the adversary, communication, energy, finance and transportation system. consequently, with the progress of cyber threat, it is necessary that looking at a number of general plan to make up for the weak points in cyber warfare operation system. Thus, the focus of this study is to examine new ways of developing a comprehensive cyber security management system.

Recently, as the development of cyber weapons, the threat of cyber warfare has been increasing. Nations, which experienced cyber warfare already, have been damaged not only in the cyber space as well as in real war field. Therefore, each nation is constantly making efforts to prepare for cyber warfare. First of all, to prepare for cyber warfare, each nation's capability of cyber warfare should be understood. A plan of reaction of cyber warfare should be searched by comparison and analysis of capability of cyber warfare. This paper compares and analyzes established methodology of capability assessment about cyber warfare, and this paper finds a better point to suggest the improvement of capability assessment about cyber warfare. This paper applies capability assessment of cyber warfare to nations, which can influence on Korea with improved capability assessment of cyber warfare. Comparing and analyzing the result of assessment, this paper deducts complementary point of Korean cyber warfare to suggest the plan to enhancing capability of cyber warfare.

Instrumentation and control(I&C) system has been mainly designed and operated based on analog technologies in existing Nuclear Power Plants(NPPs). However, As the development of Information Technology(IT), digital technologies are gradually being adopted in newly built NPPs. I&C System based on digital technologies has many advantages but it is vulnerable to cyber threat. For this reason, cyber threat adversely affects on safety and reliability of I&C system as well as the entire NPPs. Therefore, the software equipped to NPPs should be developed with cyber security attributes from the initiation phase of software development life cycle. Moreover through cyber security assessment, the degree of confidence concerning cyber security should be measured and if managerial, technical and operational work measures are implemented as intended should be reviewed in order to protect the I&C systems and information. Currently the overall cyber security program, including cyber security assessment, is not established on I&C systems. In this paper, we propose cyber security assessment methods in the Software Development Life Cycle by drawing cyber security activities and assessment items based on regulatory guides and standard technologies concerned with NPPs.

The followings are required to establish uniform principle of criminal jurisdiction for international cyber crime into customary international law; (1) clear guideline of UN for promoting national practice (2) formation of general practices based on these guidelines (3) these general practices should obtain legal confidence. International society is in close cooperation for investigating and controlling cyber threat. The US FBI has closed down the largest online crime space called 'Darkcode' and prosecuted related hackers based on joint investigation with 19 countries including England, Australia, Canada, Bosnia, Croatia, Israel, and Rumania. More and more people in Korea are raising their voices for joining cyber crime treaty, 'Budapest Treaty.' Budapest Treaty is the first international treaty prosecuting cyber crime by setting out detailed regulations on internet criminal act. Member countries have installed hotline for cyber crime and they act together. Except European countries, America, Canada, and Japan have joined the treaty. In case of Korea, from few years before, it is reviewing joining with Ministry of Foreign affairs, Ministry of Justice and the National Police but haven't made any conclusion. Different from offline crime, cyber crime is planned in advance and happens regardless of border. Therefore, international cooperation based on position of punishing criminals and international standards. Joining of Budapest international cyber crime treaty shall be done as soon as possible for enhancing national competence.

In order to publicly notify the information security (Internet or Cyber) threat level, the security companies have developed the Threat Meters. As the physical security devices are getting more intelligent and can be monitored and managed through networks, we propose a physical security threat meter (PSTM) to determine the current threat level of physical security; that is a very similar compared with the one of information security. For this purpose, we investigate and prioritize the physical security events, and consider the impact of temporal correlation among multiple security events. We also present how to determine the threshold values of threat levels, and then propose a practical PSTM using the threshold based decision. In particular, we show that the proposed scheme is fully implementable through showing the block diagram in detail and the whole implementation processes with the access controller and CCTV+video analyzer system. Finally the simulation results show that the proposed PSTM works perfectly under some test scenarios.
