  • As the cyber threats become more sophisticated and intelligent, the cases of cyber-infringement accidents are rapidly increasing. As a result, awareness of the importance of cyber security professionals has led to many cyber security-related educational programs. These programs provided with education curriculum aimed because cyber security workforce and job-based cyber security education research are not properly done. In this study, we developed a new cyber security education curriculum that defines and reflects cyber security personnel and knowledge system. In this study is not composed solely of the education contents related to the defenses emphasized in the existing education curriculum, but developed education curriculum to train a professional and balanced cyber security manpower by adding education contents in the attack field.

  • Recently, the importance of information security has become greater. For this reason, the number of departments related to information security at universities and professional educational institutions is increasing. It is analyzed that the curriculum of such educational institutions has a lot to do with the job competency mentioned in NCS in relation to major subjects. This has the advantage of providing a standardized level of education for each job competency. However from the perspective of students there may be limitations on duplicate curriculum quality of education according to the level of teachers and timely acquisition of necessary elemental skills. In this paper we analyze the curriculum of universities and professional educational institutions and propose a cell-based three-dimensional education model to address the limitations of students. We verified based on the college curriculum that the proposed model can effectively improve its limitations.

  • Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that affect the user satisfaction and continuous use intention of the improved ATCIS in the Korean Army. Design/methodology/approach Based on the various theories in relation to IT continuance, user satisfaction was identified as the main factor with regard to the continuous use intention of the improved ATCIS. In addition, computer self-efficacy, education-training, and system quality were hypothesized as antecedent variables to user satisfaction, and information security stress was set as a moderating variable for these relationships. Findings Survey results show that computer self-efficacy, education and training, and system quality had a positive effect on user satisfaction, and information security stress was found to moderate these relationships. The effects of computer self-efficacy and education-training on user satisfaction were higher in the group with low information security stress. However, the relationship between system quality and user satisfaction was higher in the group with high information security stress. User satisfaction is found to have a positive effect on the continuous use intention even with habit considered as a control variable.

  • In this study, we study and analysis on e-Learning based Information Security curriculum. e-Learning based university education courses will be much more established in Korea based on advanced IT technology. Computer related majors such as 'Computer Science' and 'Software' can be easily combined with e-Learning system. And Advanced Information Security Expert (AISE) educational course must be broadly opened for satisfying national requirements. In this study, we analyze e-Learning course on Information Security major based on off-line curriculum and suggest new model for further research.

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the operational performances by the investment level of information security in companies. The theoretical background summarized the meaning of information security, management information security, and network security. The research process was carried out in four stages. As a result of the analysis, the level of information security was classified into four groups, and the difference in operational performance was confirmed. According to the categorical regression analysis of the three dependent variables, independent variables such as network threats, non-network threats, executive information security awareness, industry, organizational size, and information security education all affected information security regulations, in-house information security checks, and information security budget investments. The theoretical implications of this study have contributed to updating the latest information security theory. Practical implications are that rational investments should be made on the level of information security of companies.

  • Recently, the importance of the role of the university information security department in nurturing security experts to defend against cyber attacks is increasing day by day. The current university security curriculum has a problem in that the proportion of theoretical education is high and the professionalism of practical education is relatively low. This study analyzed the recent educational programs of domestic and foreign security education institutions for the purpose of improving the practical ability of the Department of Security, designing a class model suitable for the core specialization process, and suggesting the direction. The proposed model improves the existing problems of basic class connection and security practice curriculum roadmap, and additionally explains the practice program of the five core specialized subjects. This study intends to contribute to the improvement of the quality of the curriculum and educational model of each university's security department.

  • While organizations are making a considerable effort to leverage formal and informal control mechanisms (e.g., policies, procedures, organizational culture) to improve security, their impact and effectiveness is under scrutiny as employees seldom comply with information security procedures. The best way to ensure the viability of a security policy is to make sure users understand it and accept necessary precautions. From an organization's perspective, a lack of security knowledge and awareness on the part of employees is a major problem. However, previous studies suggest that effect of security awareness education is inconsistent. Thus, this study is to find the answer why security awareness education is not effective. Conclusions and implications are discussed.

  • Based on the Construal Level Theory, this study aims to investigate how information security vaccine users' selection intentions differ from each other according to the selection time of information security vaccine, advertisement message types, and information security knowledge levels. For the foregoing, this study conducted an experiment by applying an experimental design of 2(knowledge level: high/low) ${\times}2$(temporal distances: short distance/long distance) ${\times}2$(advertisement message types: how(concrete)/why(abstract)) on computer security vaccine softwares. As a result, this study confirmed that the selection intentions about information security vaccines differed from each other according to the temporal distance and advertisement message type, and also varied according to the information security knowledge level. In conclusion, this study provides an implication that the consideration of well-timed persuasive message is especially important for the users at the high level of knowledge. Also, this research implies the necessity of development of abstract thinking ability based on temporal distance for the users at the low level of knowledge.

  • In digital convergence environment, information security management plays crucial role in maintaining firms' competitiveness. Organizational citizenship behavior(OCB) enables informations security countermeasures to be more effectively worked by helping employees to have much knowledge of information security policy, by facilitating employees to participate in information security education/training. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate the mediating effect of OCB on the relationships between information security countermeasures and compliance intention. Questionary was designed based on prior information security research, and survey was conducted among companies' employees across the industry. Results showed that information security policy and information security education/training were found to be key predictors of compliance intention. In addition, OCB was proven to mediate the relationships between information security countermeasures and compliance intention.
