  • In this paper, we propose 'a self - conformance system of convergence security provider' to provide basic data for security and reliability of convergence industrial technology, system and service. It is difficult to evaluate convergence security systems, limited to information and communication service providers, unable to check convergence security items, burden of submission documents, difficulty in measuring convergence security service level and we will summarize product and service-based requirements that can be integrated and systematically measure the level of convergence security and define renewed life cycle-based convergence security information and content security and assurance requirements. On the basis of this, each convergence security company declares conformity with the standard itself without the certification of the certification body, and introduces the provider conformity certification system which can manufacture and sell. This will enable the company to strengthen its competitiveness through timely launch and implementation of products and services and cost reduction.

  • We develop guidelines for the quality assurance of radiation treatment planning systems (TPS) by comparing and reviewing recommendations from major countries and organizations, as well as by analyzing the AAPM, ESTRO, and IAEA TPS quality assurance guidelines. We establish quality assurance items for acceptance testing, commissioning, periodic testing, system management, and security, and propose methods to perform each item within acceptable standards. Acceptance includes tests of hardware and network environments, data transmission, software, and benchmarking as specified by the system supplier, and apply the IAEA classification criteria. Commissioning includes dosimetric and non-dosimetric items for assessing TPS performance by applying the AAPM classification criteria and the latest technical items from the IAEA. Periodic quality assurance tests include daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and occasional items by applying the AAPM classification criteria. System management and security items include the state and network connectivity of TPS, periodic data backup, and data access security. The guidelines for TPS quality assurance proposed in this study will help to improve the safety and quality of radiotherapy by preventing incidents related to radiotherapy.

  • The National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education plays a crucial role in education in Ukraine, as an independent entity creates and ensures quality standards of higher education, which allow to properly implement the educational policy of the state, develop the economy and society as a whole. The purpose of the article: to reveal the crucial role of the National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education to create quality management of higher education institutions, to show its mechanism as an independent entity that creates and ensures quality standards of higher education. and society as a whole. The mission of the National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education is to become a catalyst for positive changes in higher education and the formation of a culture of its quality. The strategic goals of the National Agency are implemented in three main areas: the quality of educational services, recognition of the quality of scientific results, ensuring the systemic impact of the National Agency. The National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education exercises various powers, which can be divided into: regulatory, analytical, accreditation, control, communication. The effectiveness of the work of the National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education for 2020 has been proved. The results of a survey conducted by 183 higher education institutions of Ukraine conducted by the National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education are shown. Emphasis was placed on the development of "Recommendations of the National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education regarding the introduction of an internal quality assurance system." The international activity and international recognition of the National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education are shown.

  • This study is to develop a human resource (HR) security framework, and related HR security indicators in the context of information security. The HR security framework consists of three constructs, personnel assurance, personnel competence, and personnel security control. Based on the framework, HR security management indicators are derived as 26 indicators in 9 items out of 3 categories. An empirical research has been performed to verify the relevance and consistency between the indicators by conducting a questionnaire-based survey. Also, interrelationships between the proposed indicators and HR related security level were analyzed by the multiple regression analysis. As a result, the proposed hypothesis were mostly accepted, showing the significant relationships between the indicators and security level.

  • IPsec protocol has been developed to provide security services to Internet. Recently IPsec is implemented on the various operating systems Hence, it is very important to evaluate the stability of the Ipsec protocol as well as other protocols that provide security services. However, there has been little effort to develop the tools that require to evaluate the stability of IPsec protocols. Therefore, in this paper, we develope the security requirements and suggest a security evaluation system for the Internet packet protection protocols that provide security services at the If level that can be used to check if the security protocols Provide the claimed services correctly This system can be used as debugging tool for developing IPsec based security system.

  • Insider threat is becoming a very serious issue in most organizations and management is responsible for security implementation. This study is to develop a personnel security management indicators in the areas of Personnel Assurance, Personnel Competence, and Security Environment and protection against insider threats. In this study, the information security management system and related papers are examined by reviewing the existing researches and cases. Proposed indicators are verified by pilot test, empirically analyzed to expose experts' perception and the validity, importance, and risk level of each indicators through a questionnaire. Result were encouraging, but additional study focused on personnel security management using factor analysis is needed in the future.

  • Quality rating of machine security systems is difficult because both tangible and intangible services are included. However, still, the research template applied the SERVQUAL model with the intention of confirming machine security systems' service quality formation and experimentally inspecting the relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction. Therefore, the following highlights the experimental research outcomes and their implications for small-scale businesses utilizing machine security systems in the Daegu region. First, after observing whether the determining factors constitute service quality, four components were found to have significant influence on customer satisfaction. Additionally, in observing any differences in their influences, the following in order were observed as having influence on customer satisfaction: empathy, assurance reliability, responsiveness, and tangibility. Moreover, though companies‘ newest facilities and equipment are important, it can be concluded that a company employees’ prudent consideration, individual interest, reliability, and assurance for the customer carry greater importance. Secondly, though we intended to survey machine security systems by employing the SERVQUAL model, determinant factor analysis results found applying SERVQUAL model in its original state a challenge. According to results from determinant factor analysis, the basis for forming service quality is determined by assurance reliability, empathy, tangibility, and responsiveness. Furthermore, in future research, while more accurately distinguishing between assurance and reliability, a more appropriate model must also be considered for modification in domestic machine security system industry‘s service quality evaluation.

  • Patch distribution is one of important processes to fix vulnerabilities of software and to ensure security of systems. Since an institute or a company has various operating systems or applications, it is not easy to update patches promptly. In this paper, we propose a secure patch distribution architecture with an authentication mechanism, a security assurance mechanism, a patch integrity assurance mechanism, and an automatic patch installation mechanism. We argue that the proposed architecture improve security of patch distribution processes within a domain.
