A smartphone is a mobile phone that offers more advanced computing ability and connectivity than a contemporary basic feature phone. Unlike feature phone, a smartphone allows the user to install and run more advanced applications based on a specific platform. Smartphones run complete operating system software providing a platform for application developers. A smartphone will become the default computing method for many point activities in the not-too-distant future, such as e-mail, online shopping, gaming, and even video entertainment. For smartphone that contains sensitive information and access the Internet, security is a major issue. In the 1980s, security issues were hardly noticed; however, security is a major issue for users today, which includes smart phones. Because security is much more difficult to address once deployment and implementation are underway, it should be considered from the beginning. Recently our government recognized the importance of smartphone security and published several safety tips for using the smartphone. However, theses tips are user-oriented measures. Maintaining the security of a smartphone involves the active participation of the user. Although it is a important users understand and take full advantage of the facilities afforded by smarphone, it is more important developers distribute the secure smartphone application through the market. In this paper we describe some scenarios in which user is invaded his/her privacy by smartphone stolen, lost, misplaced or infected with virus. Then we suggest the security considerations for securing smartphone applications in respect with developers. We also suggest the methods applying domestic encryption algorithms such as SEED, HIGHT and ARIA in developing secure applications. This suggested security considerations may be used by developers as well as users (especially organizations) interested in enhancing security to related security incidents for current and future use of smartphones.

With the deregulation of electronic finance, FinTech has been revitalized. The discussion on artificial intelligence is active in the financial industry. However, there is a problem of increasing security threats behind new technologies. Security vulnerabilities have increased because we are more connected than before, and the channels and entities of the financial industry have diversified. Although there are technical and policy discussions on security, the essence of all discussions is human. Fundamentals of finance are trust and security, and attention to human factors is important. This study presents the role of human and artificial intelligence for financial security, respectively. Furthermore, this derives a collaborative model in which human and artificial intelligence complement each other's limitations. To support this, it first discusses the development of finance and IT, AI, human factors, and financial security threats. This study suggests that the security threats will intensify in the era of new technology, but it can overcome them by using machinery and technology.

In the data economy era, various policies are being implemented to create an active data distribution environment. In South Korea, the formation of a big data distribution platform and data trading began with the launch of the Financial Data Exchange under public data governance. In the case of major advanced countries in the data field, they have built a data distribution environment based on the data broker industry for decades and have strengthened national data competitiveness through added values generated from the industry. However, behind the active data distribution through data brokers, there are numerous information security issues, which have resulted in various privacy issues and national security threats. These problems can occur sufficiently in the process of domestic financial data exchange. In our study, we analyzed various information security issues of data trading caused by data brokers and derived information security requirements to be considered when trading data. We verified whether information security requirements are well reflected in the information security policy for each transaction stage of the domestic financial data exchange. Based on the verification, measurements to strengthen information security for financial data exchange are presented in our paper.

Current leakage of industrial technologies with revealing state secret against nation is gradually increasing and scope of the spill is diversified from technology-oriented leakage to new economic security sector like information and communication, electrical and electronic, defense industry, illegal export of strategic material, economic order disturbance by foreign country, infringement of intellectual property, etc. So the spill damage can affect not only leaked company but also national interests and entire domestic industry. According to statistics from National Industrial Security Center of National Intelligence Service, a major cause of technology leakage is not only by external things about hacking and malignant code, but internal leakage of former and current employees account for about 80%. And technology leakage due to temptation of money and personal interests followed by technology leakage of subcontractor is steadily increased. Most studies in the field of security have tended to focus on measuring security capability of company in order to prevent leakage core assets or developing measurement Indicators for management rather than security activities of the company members that is most important. Therefore, this study analyzes the effect of most underlying security education in security activities on security capabilities of enterprise. As a result, it indicates that security education have a positive(+) correlation with security capabilities.

In order to protect the advancement of defense technology that has a tremendous e?ect on both the national security and the economy, the Republic of Korea established the Defense Technology Security Act in 2015. As the new enactment brought changes to the landscape of the defense industry and defense industrial security, a new examination of the concept of the defense industrial security has now become necessary. Even after taking into consideration the undisclosed nature of defense industrial security research, and the fact that only the limited number of firms participates in the subject matter, scientific studies related to the topic have not been active. However, with the new enactment of the Defense Technology Security Act, it is necessary to expand the scope of security and to redefine the concept of defense industrial security. In this paper, we analyzed the research works on related technology protection policies and our environment of the defense industry in order to conceptualize defense industrial security. The established concepts are expected to provide a systematic way to protect the confidential and defense technology.

Since Roentgen discovered X-rays, radiation sources have been utilized for many areas such as agriculture, industry, medicine and fundamental chemical research. As a result, human society has gained lots of benefits. However, if a radioactive material is used for the malicious purpose, it causes serious consequences to humanity and environment. Consequently, international organizations including International Atomic energy Agency (IAEA) have been emphasizing establishment and implementation of security management to prevent sabotage and illicit trafficking of radioactive materials. For this reason, the rule of technical standards of radiation safety management was revised and the public notice of security management regarding radioisotope was legislated in 2015 by Nuclear Safety and Security Commission (NSSC). Several radioactive sources which have to be regulated under the above rule and the public notice have been utilized in Advanced Radiation Technology Institute (ARTI) of Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). In order to control them properly, security management system such as access control and physical protection has been adapted since 2015. In this paper, we have analyzed the public notice of NSSC and its field application case. Based on the results, we are going to draw improvement on the public notice of NSSC and security system.
