The need for information security increases interests on cipher algorithms recently. Especially, a large volume of data transmission over high-band communication network requires faster encryption and decryption techniques for real-time processing. It would be a good solution for this problem that we implement the cipher algorithm in forms of hardware circuits. Though some previous researches use this approach, they focus only on repeatedly executing the core part of the algorithm to minimize the hardware chip size, while most cipher algorithms are inherently parallel. In this paper, we propose a new design for the SEED block cipher algorithm developed by KISA (Korea Information Security Agency) in 1998 as Korean standard cipher algorithm. It exploits the parallelism of the algorithm basically and implements it in a pipelined fashion. We described the design in VHDL program and performed functional simulations on the program, and then found that it worked correctly. In addition, we synthesized it and verified that it could be implemented in a single FPGA chip, implying that the new design can be Practically used for the actual hardware implementation of a high-speed and high-performance cipher system.

Recently, a variety of attacks on web services have been occurring through a multiple access environment such as PC, tablet, and smartphone. These attacks are causing various subsequent damages such as online fraud transactions, takeovers and theft of accounts, fraudulent logins, and information leakage through web service vulnerabilities. Creating a new fake account for Fraud attacks, hijacking accounts, and bypassing IP while using other usernames or email addresses is a relatively easy attack method, but it is not easy to detect and block these attacks. In this paper, we have studied a method to detect online fraud transaction and obsession by identifying and managing devices accessing web service using web-based device fingerprinting. In particular, it has been proposed to identify devices and to manage them by scoring process. In order to secure the validity of the proposed scheme, we analyzed the application cases and proved that they can effectively defend against various attacks because they actively cope with online fraud and obtain visibility of user accounts.

Video security has recently emerged as an important issue owing to CCTV video image spill accidents over the Internet. KISA recommends the use of encryption protocols for remote access through its guidelines for CCTV personal video information protection. But still, many products do not adhere to the guidelines, and those products are easily exposed to security threats, such as hacking. To solve these security vulnerabilities, this paper proposes a CCTV system that connects from remote locations, and is implemented by using secure shell (SSH) tunneling techniques. The system enhances security by transmitting encrypted data by using SSH. By using the tunneling technique, it also solves the problem of not being able to access a CCTV recorder located inside a firewall. For evaluation of the system, this paper compares various CCTV remote access schemes and security. Experimental results on the effectiveness of the system show it is possible to obtain remote access without a significant difference in transmission quality and time. Applying the method proposed in this paper, you can configure a system secure from the threats of hacking.

Providing trading partners with personal information to establish an e-commerce financial transaction is inevitable. Most e-commerce companies keep personal information and transaction data for user's convenience and develop additional services as their applications. However, keeping personal information increases the likelihood of identity theft causing direct or indirect damage while it may simplify repetitive financial transactions. This study introduces risk management methods based on quantitative and qualitative analysis including demand-supply curve model and Gordon & Loeb model to analyze the risks for security management. The empirical analysis with survey results from KISA (Korea Information Security Agency) shows that the root cause of different statistics of personal information leakage incidents according to core business of internet companies is the difference in their Loss Expectancy caused by them. Also we suggest disciplinary compensation and higher standard for personal information protection as a solution to prevent the variation of investment on it between individual companies.

Recently, the distribution and using of the digital multimedia contents are easy by developing the internet application program and related technology. However, the digital signal is easily duplicated and the duplicates have the same quality compare with original digital signal. To solve this problem, there is the multimedia fingerprint which is studied for the protection of copyright. Fingerprinting scheme is a technique which supports copyright protection to track redistributers of electronic information using cryptographic techniques. Only regular user can know the inserted fingerprint data in fingerprinting schemes differ from a symmetric/asymmetric scheme and the scheme guarantee an anonymous before re-contributed data. In this paper, we present a new scheme which is the detection of colluded multimedia fingerprint by neural network. This proposed scheme is consists of the anti-collusion code generation and the neural network for the error correction.

This article consists of 3 parts. Part I is multi stakeholder approach on Internet governance system. Part II is analysis of the Korean Internet governance system. In this part, I explain relevant laws in Korea, including Korean Internet Address Resources Act. Part III is my suggestion on Korean Internet governance system using a multi stakeholder approach. First of all, the keyword of the Internet governance system is decision making process: that is, consensus based versus top-down approach. Then who are major players in Internet governance in national level? Government, or Private sectors such as business and civil society. Korean legal system for Internet governance shows a top-down decision making process. Major players are the government (that is, Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning) and KISA affiliated with the government. Other players include Internet Address Policy Committee, Korea Internet Governance Alliance, and NGOs. The key statute for Internet governance in Korea is Internet Address Resources Act of 2004. Articles 3 and 5 require the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning to take a proactive role in Internet governance. The government shall consult with the Internet Address Policy Deliberation Committee for Internet governance. Yet this Committee is established under the control of the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning. All members of this Committee are also commissioned or nominated by the Chairman of the Ministry. Meanwhile, there are also non-official organizations, including Sub-committee on Address & Infrastructure of Korea Internet Governance Alliance. I suggest to reform decision making process of Korean Internet governance system based on BOTTOM-UP process for CONSENSUS BASED DECISION. My suggested system includes the following: (1) The government hands over a major role in Internet governance to INDEPENDENT Internet policy organization. And the government participates in such organization as ONE of the players. (2) Nomination of this committee member must be bottom-up process for a genuine multi-stakeholder model including civil society, commercial organization, end-users and experts. (3) The government should establish plan for supporting the private sector's international activity on the long-term basis.

최근 여기어때, 인터파크 등 전자상거래 기업을 대상으로 발생한 개인정보 해킹사고 사례를 보면, 사람의 취약점을 노리는 지능화지속위협(APT) 공격과 알려진 해킹 기술이 복합적으로 이루어지고 있다. 해킹사고가 발생한 기관은 한국인터넷진흥원(KISA) 정보보호관리체계(ISMS) 의무대상 기관으로써 정보보호관리체계를 유지 관리하고 있었다. 그럼에도 불구하고 대형의 개인정보 유출사고가 발생한 주요 원인은 정보보호관리체계가 적용되지 않았던 정보시스템과 인력을 대상으로 해킹이 이루어졌기 때문이다. 해킹 위협의 변화에 따라 전자상거래 보안 수준도 변화해야 하는데, 개인정보보호 관련 규제 준수도 전자상거래 기업에서는 힘든 상황이다. 고객의 개인정보 유출 사고는 일반인을 매출 기반으로 서비스하고 있는 전자상거래 기업에서는 치명적이다. 안전한 전자상거래 플랫폼 기반에서 고객에게 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 중요 자산인 고객의 개인정보보호를 위해 역량을 집중해야 한다. 한정된 예산과 자원으로 안전한 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 기존에 구축된 정보보호관리체계를 기반으로 IT보안감사체계를 전사적으로 확대하여 지속적으로 모니터링 할 필요가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 최신 사이버 보안 위협 동향과 전자상거래 기업 대상으로 발생한 최근 개인정보유출사고 사례를 분석을 통해 시사점을 도출하여 전자상거래 개인정보 보호를 위한 IT보안감사체계를 제시하였다.

Today, information sharing is recognized as a means to effectively prevent cyber attacks, which are becoming more intelligent and advanced, so that many countries such as U.S., EU, UK, Japan, etc. are establishing cyber threat information sharing system at national level. In particular, the United States has enacted the "Cyber Threat Information Sharing Act (CISA)" in December 2015, and has been promoting the establishment of a legal and institutional basis for sharing threat information and the implementation of the system. Korea is sharing cyber threat information in public and private sectors mainly through the National Cyber Security Center(NCSC) and the Korea Internet & Security Agency(KISA). In addition, Korean government is attempting to strengthen and make legal basis for unified cyber threat information sharing system through establishing policies. However, there are also concerns about issues such as leakage of sensitive information of companies or individuals including personal identifiable information that may produced during the cyber threat information sharing process, reliability and efficiency issues of the main agents who gather and manage information. In this paper, we try to derive improvement plans and implications by comparing and analyzing cyber threat information sharing status between U.S. and Korea.
