IoT technology is evolving and related services and technologies are spreading throughout the life. These IoT technologies make life easier for users, but they also have big threats like double-edged swords. Therefore, the importance of security is emerging and related researches are actively proceeding. Existing researches have focused on reducing the computational load on the constrained devices, performing the DTLS for the end-to-end security from a network architecture perspective. In this paper, we propose a DTLS protocol that uses ECQV certificate instead of existing X.509 certificate to reduce the load of DTLS protocol from the network perspective. In addition, the proposed scheme is implemented and compared with PSK and RPK modes.

The importance of the risk analysis tool has been recognized and its use also has been emphasized by a number of researchers recently The methodology were examined but neither algorithms nor practical applications have been implemented or practiced in Korea. In this paper, the architecture of the Buddy System, one of the automated risk assessment tools. is analyzed in depth to provide the algorithmic understanding and to promote the development of the risk analysis methodology. The Buddy System mainly uses three main factors of vulnerability, threat and countermeasures as a nucleus of the qualatative analysis with the modified loss expectancy value. These factors are identified and assessed by the separation of duties between the end user and security analyst. The Buddy System uses five axioms as its bases of assessment algorithm and the assessed vulnerability level is strictly within these axioms. Since the In-place countermeasures reduce the vulnerability level up to a certain level. the security analyst may use "what if " model to examine the impact of additional countermeasures by proposing each to reduce the vulnerability level further to within the acceptable range. The emphasis on the qualitative approach on vulnerability leveling is very well balanced with the quantitative analysis that the system performance is prominent.prominent.

This study aims to identify security-based threat information for an organization. This is because protecting the threat for IT systems plays an important role for an corporate's intangible assets. Security monitoring systems determine and consequently respond threats by analyzing them in a real time situation, focusing on events and logs generated by security protection programs. The security monitoring task derives priority by dividing threat information into reputation information and analysis information. Reputation information consisted of Hash, URL, IP, and Domain, while, analysis information consisted of E-mail, CMD-Line, CVE, and attack trend information. As a result, the priority of reputation information was relatively high, and it is meaningful to increase accuracy and responsiveness to the threat information.

Convergence ethics education for digital culture in cyberspace is limited to specific areas such as personal information and copyright. Education on the ability to accept information and provide information in cyberspace in which digital natives communicate, share and exchange is inadequate. As a result, the dysfunction of abusing the personal information of others without recognizing the importance of information security has recently emerged as a social problem. In this study, among digital netizen who communicate and exchange information the most in cyberspace, digital literacy education was conducted for students in the first and second grades of university, and then they investigated the change in information security perception. Based on this, we intend to prepare fundamental measures for systematic cultivation of digital literacy education necessary for the Digital Cultural Society.

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.

Ethical hackers are using different tools and techniques to encounter malicious cyber-attacks generated by bad hackers. During the software development process, development teams typically bypass or ignore the security parameters of the software. Whereas, with the advent of online web-based software, security is an essential part of the software development process for implementing secure software. Security features cannot be added as additional at the end of the software deployment process, but they need to be paid attention throughout the SDLC. In that view, this paper presents a new, Ethical Hacking - Software Development Life Cycle (EH-SDLC) introducing ethical hacking processes and phases to be followed during the SDLC. Adopting these techniques in SDLC ensures that consumers find the end-product safe, secure and stable. Having a team of penetration testers as part of the SDLC process will help you avoid incurring unnecessary costs that come up after the data breach. This research work aims to discuss different operating systems and tools in order to facilitate the secure execution of the penetration tests during SDLC. Thus, it helps to improve the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the software products.
