  • The new cyber world has created by Internet that is prosperous rapidly. But with the expansion of Internet the hacking and intrusion are also increased very much. Actually there were many incidents in Internet, but the damage was restricted within a local area and local system. However, the Great 1.25 Internet Disturbance has paralyzed the national wide Internet environment. It because the Slammer Worm. The worm is a malformed program that uses both of the hacking and computer virus techniques. It autonomously attacks the vulnerability of Windows system, duplicates and spreads by itself. Jus like the Slammer Worm, almost every worms attack the vulnerability of Windows systems that installed in personal PC. Therefore, the vulnerability in personal PC could destroy the whole Internet world. So, in this paper we propose a Internet Worm Expanding Prevention System that could be installed in personal PC to prevent from expanding the Internet Worm. And we will introduce the results of developed system.

  • Internet attack incidents have steadily increased along with the increase in Internet users. To protect systems and networks from these attacks, advanced security systems have been developed. Now that these security systems are operating, their successful management is more important than the purchase and establishment of new information security systems. The acquisition of good systems is ineffective and financially wasteful unless they are managed properly. Adequate management policy has recently become the focus of users. In other words, for companies and educational institutions with their domains, capital expenses are enormous to bear, and good security staffs are difficult to find, for which reasons outsourcing vendors or Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) that manage and operate the information security systems of certain domains become very appealing. Today, customers expect ISPs to perform MSSP services that used to be carried out by the security companies. This document presents the role and necessity of ISPs as MSSPs.

  • Along with the development of IOT, the number of people using IOT devices has enormously increased and the IOT era has come. Especially, people using the IP cameras among Internet devices have been drastically increasing. It is because the IP cameras are well networked and comparatively cheap compared with CCTVs, and they can also be monitored and controlled in real time through PCs and smart phones for the purposes of general theft prevention and shop surveillance. However, due to the user's serious lack of security awareness and the fact that anyone can easily hack only with simple hacking tools and hacking sites information, security crimes that exploit those have been increasing as well. Therefore, this paper describes how easily the IP cameras can be hacked in the era of IOT, what kind of security incidents occurred, and also suggests possible government measures and new technical solutions to those problems.

  • Recently, the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has been increasing exponentially. These IoT devices are directly connected to the internet to exchange information. IoT devices are becoming smaller and lighter. However, security measures are not taken in a timely manner compared to the security vulnerabilities of IoT devices. This is often the case when the security patches cannot be applied to the device because the security patches are not adequately applied or there is no patch function. Thus, security vulnerabilities continue to exist, and security incidents continue to increase. In this study, we classified and analyzed the most common security vulnerabilities for IoT devices and identify the essential vulnerabilities of IoT devices that should be considered for security when producing IoT devices. This paper will contribute to reducing the occurrence of security vulnerabilities in companies that produce IoT devices. Additionally, companies can identify vulnerabilities that frequently occur in IoT devices and take preemptive measures.

  • Industrial control systems (ICSs) used to be operated in closed networks, that is, separated physically from the Internet and corporate networks, and independent protocols were used for each manufacturer. Thus, their operation was relatively safe from cyberattacks. However, with advances in recent technologies, such as big data and internet of things, companies have been trying to use data generated from the ICS environment to improve production yield and minimize process downtime. Thus, ICSs are being connected to the internet or corporate networks. These changes have increased the frequency of attacks on ICSs. Despite this increased cybersecurity risk, research on ICS security remains insufficient. In this paper, we analyze threats in detail using STRIDE threat analysis modeling and DREAD evaluation for distributed control systems, a type of ICSs, based on our work experience as cybersecurity specialists at a refinery. Furthermore, we verify the validity of threats identified using STRIDE through case studies of major ICS cybersecurity incidents: Stuxnet, BlackEnergy 3, and Triton. Finally, we present countermeasures and strategies to improve risk assessment of identified threats.

  • Recently, the importance and necessity of artificial intelligence (AI), especially machine learning, has been emphasized. In fact, studies are actively underway to solve complex and challenging problems through the use of AI systems, such as intelligent CCTVs, intelligent AI security systems, and AI surgical robots. Information security that involves analysis and response to security vulnerabilities of software is no exception to this and is recognized as one of the fields wherein significant results are expected when AI is applied. This is because the frequency of malware incidents is gradually increasing, and the available security technologies are limited with regard to the use of software security experts or source code analysis tools. We conducted a study on MalDC, a technique that converts malware into images using machine learning, MalDC showed good performance and was able to analyze and classify different types of malware. MalDC applies a preprocessing step to minimize the noise generated in the image conversion process and employs an image augmentation technique to reinforce the insufficient dataset, thus improving the accuracy of the malware classification. To verify the feasibility of our method, we tested the malware classification technique used by MalDC on a dataset provided by Microsoft and malware data collected by the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA). Consequently, an accuracy of 97% was achieved.
