This study analyzed that N/A check items affect the results of the security level degree, when performing vulnerability analysis evaluation. For this, we were used vulnerability analysis evaluation range, check items and quantitative calculation method. Furthermore, were applied grade and weight for the importance of the items. In addition, because technology develop rapidly, the institution is always exposed risk. therefore, this study was carried out empirical analysis by applying RAL(Risk Acceptabel Level). According to the analyzed result N/A check items factors affecting the level of security has been proven. In other words, this study found that we shall exclude inspection items irrelevant to the institution characteristics, when perform vulnerability analysis evaluation. In this study suggested that security level evaluation shall performed, after that exclude items irrelevant to the institution characteristics based on empirical verification. And also, it proposed that model research is required for establish check items for which analysis-evaluate vulnerability based on empirical verification.

It is very important to evaluate training because it can systematically grasp the current status of training. Evaluation includes getting ongoing feedback from the learner, trainer and learner's supervisor, to improve the quality of the training and identify if the learner achieved the goals of the training. It also provides a justification for the implementation of training. Nonetheless, there is a lack of studies that attempt to evaluate information security training programs. In this study, we utilize the Philips model to evaluate the public training programs for the people who are in charge of the information security duties in the public sector and propose the training improvement plans. Research result has shown that it is necessary to evaluate the level of the trainees in advance and conduct training programs according to the information security skill level. In addition, it needs to conduct training according to duties such as information security management, information security operate and maintain. The limitation of this study is that each education program was not assessed individually because this study had developed an evaluation tool that could be used comprehensively.

Security in embedded devices has become a significant issue. Threats on the sup-ply chain, like using counterfeit components or inserting backdoors intentionally are one of the most significant issues in embedded devices security. To mitigate these threats, high-level security evaluation and certification more than EAL (Evaluation Assurance Level) 5 on CC (Common Criteria) are necessary on hardware components, especially on the cryptographic module such as AES. High-level security evaluation and certification require detecting covert channel such as backdoors on the cryptographic module. However, previous studies have a limitation that they cannot detect some kinds of backdoors which leak the in-formation recovering a secret key on the cryptographic module. In this paper, we present an expanded definition of backdoor on hardware AES module and show how to detect the backdoor which is never detected in Verilog HDL using model checker NuSMV.

In this paper, we propose a distributed communication model of intrusion detection system(IDS) in which integrated security management at networks level is possible, model it at a security node and distributed system levels, design and implement a simulator. At the node level, we evaluate the transfer capability of alert message based on the analysis of giga-bit security node architecture which performs hardware-based intrusion detection. At the distributed system level, we perform the evaluation of transfer capability of detection and alert informations between components of distributed IDS. In the proposed model, we carry out the performance evaluation considering decision factors of communication mechanism and present the results in order to gain some quantitative understanding of the system.

It is most important that identifying security threats(or vulnerabilities) of critical IT assets and checking the propriety of related security countermeasures in advance for enhancing security level. In this paper, we present a new security risk evaluation scheme based on critical assets and threats for this. The presented scheme provides the coverage and propriety of the countermeasures(e.g., intrusion detection rules and vulnerability scan rules, etc.), and the quantitative risk level of identified assets and threats. So, it is expected that the presented scheme will be utilized in threat management process efficiently compared to previous works.

It need estimation model who is efficient and estimate correctly organization's information security level to achieve effectively organization's information security target. Also, estimate class information security level for this and need reformable estimation indicator or standard and estimation methodology of information security systems that application is possible should be studied in our country. Therefore many research centers including ISO are preparing the measuring and evaluating method for network duality. This study will represent an evaluating model for network security based on checklist. In addition, we propose ah measuring and evaluating method for network performance. The purpose of two studies is to present the evaluating procedure and method for measuring security of network on set workwill be identified and a measuring method and procedure will be proposed.

To ensure PKI systems' reliability, the security for PKI systems evaluation is required. But, unfortunately, the systematic security evaluation and certification of PKI systems is insufficient. In Korea, Firewall and intrusion detection system's security evaluation and certification has been enforced, but research of PKI systems’ evaluation is insufficient. This paper provides a PKI system evaluation criteria. This paper specifies a 7 level of the functional and assurance security requirements for a PKI system. And this PKI system evaluation criteria provides a compatibility with CC(Common Criteria) and KISES(Korea Information Security Evaluation Systems).

The cyber attacks targeting the systems of national and public organizations in the front line of cyber security have been advanced, and the number of cyber attacks has been on the constant rise. In this circumstance, it is necessary to develop the security evaluation technology to prevent cyber attacks to the systems of national and public organizations. Most of the studies of the vulnerability analysis on the information systems of national and public organizations almost focus on automation. In actual security inspection, it is hard to automate some parts. In terms of security policies for threats, many different plans have been designed and applied in the managerial, physical, and technical fields, giving particular answers no matter how they are subjective or situational. These tendencies can be standardized in OCIL(Open Checklist Interactive Language), and partial automation can be achieved. Therefore, this study tries to implement XML Converter in order for OCIL based security level evaluation with typical evaluation questions.

In this study we analyzed and gauged the information security needs for the new IT service which will be proceeding. Then we designed Information Security Rank Authentication System to raise the level of information security. To achieve this study, we analyzed rank authentication system of the inside and outside of the country and developed the practical propulsive system and the evaluation model which reflects IT service's own feature differing from the general evaluation of IS information security. The result of this study can be utilized to assess the level of domestic IT service information security objectively, and it can be applied as the means of rational decisionmaking for establishing a policy to raise degree of information security of corporations providing IT service.

The purpose of this study is to develop a framework for evaluating security levels in hospitals. We classify security indicators into administrative, technical and physical safeguards. The security evaluation model for hospital information systems was applied to three general hospitals. The analysis of the results showed a low security level in information systems. In particular, requirements for administrative and physical safeguards were very low. Hospitals need strict security policies more than other organizations because their information systems contain patients' highly confidential data. The evaluation model developed in this study can be used for guidelines and as a checklist for hospitals. The security evaluation in hospital informational systems needs to be an essential element of hospital evaluation.
