  • To survive in the trend of the fourth industrial revolution, companies are putting a lot of attention and effort into personalization services using the latest technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, while entrusting third parties to handle personal information on the grounds of work efficiency, expertise and cost reduction. In such an environment, consignors need to check trustees on a more effective and reasonable basis to ensure personal information safety for trustees. This study used AHP techniques to derive the importance and priority of each item of "Personal Information Safety Assurance Measures" for financial companies and trustees, and objectively compared and analyzed differences in perceptions of importance between financial institutions and trustees. Based on this, the company recognizes the difference between self-inspection of financial institutions and inspection of trustees and presents policy grounds and implications for applying differentiated inspection standards that reflect the weights appropriate for the purpose.

  • The proliferation of IoT networks has led to an increase in cyber attacks, highlighting the importance of Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS). To overcome the limitations of traditional NIDS and cope with more sophisticated cyber attacks, there is a trend towards integrating artificial intelligence models into NIDS. However, AI-based NIDS are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, which exploit the weaknesses of algorithm. Model Type Inference Attack is one of the types of attacks that infer information inside the model. This paper proposes an optimized framework for Model Type Inference attacks against NIDS models, applying more realistic assumptions. The proposed method successfully trained an attack model to infer the type of NIDS models with an accuracy of approximately 0.92, presenting a new security threat to AI-based NIDS and emphasizing the importance of developing defence method against such attacks.

  • Purpose This paper attempts to identify items for improving the usage of PLM(Product Lifecycle Management) systems and suggests ways to prioritize improvement items on the basis of importance. It also tries to find out differences in the importance of improvement items due to the company size, the industry, the job, or the PLM solution. Design/methodology/approach Through a survey from participants to a PLM System Conference, data were collected from a sample of 181 users who had the previous experience in using a PLM system. In order to figure out the differences in the importance among user groups, the F-test with the Scheffe test as a post-hoc analysis was used in case of equal variances and the Welch test with the Dunnett T3 test was used in case of unequal variances. Findings This study sorted out 25 improvement ideas according to their importance assessed by the PLM system users. The top five ideas are improving data consistency, error minimization, fast system response time, enhancing user recognition, and business process improvement. The support group puts higher importance than the general user group in data consistency, fast system response time, enhancing user recognition, business process improvement, dedicated team for data consistency, continuous support from management, hardware performance upgrade, output linkage to other systems, and shortening problem solving duration. The largest company group attaches significantly higher weights than the smallest company group to data consistency, error minimization, fast system response time, business process improvement, dedicated team for data consistency, security with proper access management, output linkage to other systems, and better user interface.

  • South Korean national security strategy should be developed to effectively handle and counter increasing maritime threats and challenges. There are three major maritime threats South Korea faces today; maritime disputes on the EEZ boundary and Dokdo islet issues, North Korean threats, and international maritime security. Maritime disputes in the region are getting intensified and turned into a military confrontation after 2010. Now regional countries confront each other with military and police forces and use economic leverage to coerce the others. They are very eager to create advantageous de facto situations to legitimize their territorial claims. North Korean threat is also increasing in the sea as we witnessed in the Cheonan incident and Yeonpyoung shelling in 2010. North Korea resorts to local provocations and nuclear threats to coerce South Korea in which it may enjoy asymmetric advantages. The NLL area of the west sea would be a main hot spot that North Korea may continue to make a local provocation. Also, South Korean national economy is heavily dependent upon foreign trade and national strategic resources such as oil are all imported. Without an assurance on the safety of sea routes, these economic activities cannot be maintained and expanded. This paper argues that South Korea should make national maritime strategy and enhance the strength of naval forces. As a middle power, its national security strategy needs to consider all the threats and challenges not only from North Korea but also to maritime security. This is not a matter of choice but a mandate for national survival and prosperity. This paper discusses the importance of maritime security, changing characteristics of maritime threats and challenges, regional maritime disputes and its threat to South Korea's security, and South Korea's future security strategy and ways to enhance the role of naval forces. Our national maritime strategy needs to show middle and long term policy directions on how we will protect our maritime interests. Especially, it is important to build proper naval might to carry out all the roles and missions required to the military.

  • This study is to analyze the views on leisure of security agents. As the subject of this study, the security agents holding office in the capital area in 2008 were selected and total 333 samples are drawn among them by using judgement sampling method. The validity of the questionnaire was verified through an expert group meeting. The statistical method is $x^2$ verification(Chi-Square Tests) using SPSSWIN 16.0. Following results are from the methods mentioned above. First, most of the security agents consider leisure as “rest" and they need it for “stress release". About the importance of work and leisure, the security agents mostly think “both work and leisure are important" and they regard leisure as a “very important" matter for an individual. Second, main leisure activities of the security agents are principally “social activities", while the frequency is “2 or 3 times a month", the time is “1-2 hours", and the period is “4-7 years" in general.

  • As smart TVs have recently emerged as the center of the IoT ecosystem, their importance is increasing. If a vulnerability occurs within a smart TV, there is a possibility that it will cause financial damage, not just in terms of privacy invasion and personal information leakage due to sniffing and theft. Therefore, in this paper, to enhance the completeness of smart TV vulnerability analysis, STRIDE threat classification are used to systematically identify threats. In addition, through the manufacture of the Attack Tree and the actual vulnerability analysis, the effectiveness of the checklist was verified and security requirements were derived for the safe smart TV use environment.
