In order to prevent tampering and reverse engineering of executive code, this paper propose a new tamper resistant software mechanism. This paper presents a cryptographic MAC function and a relationship which has its security level derived by the importance of code block instead of by merely getting the encryption and decryption key from the previous block. In this paper, we propose a cryptographic MAC function which generates a dynamic MAC function key instead of the hash function as written in many other papers. In addition, we also propose a relationships having high, medium and low security levels. If any block is determined to have a high security level then that block will be encrypted by the key generated by the related medium security level block. The low security block will be untouched due to efficiency considerations. The MAC function having this dynamic key and block relationship will make analyzing executive code more difficult.

Until now, most of the evaluation systems have performed evaluation with an emphasis on in-formation security products. However, evaluating information security level for an enterprise needs analysis of the whole enterprise organization, and a synthetic and systematic evaluation system based on it. In this study we subdivided the information security elements of the whole enterprise such as planning, environment, support, technology, and management; developed indices based on them; finally, made the information security level of the whole enterprise organization possible to be measured. And we tried to grasp the information security level of the whole enterprise organization and develop an evaluation system of information security level for suggesting a more developing direction of information security.

Multimedia system security can be categorized into groups such as protection of multimedia asset itself and protection of multimedia systems which can process multimedia asset. Divided consideration for these two factors will not hurt the importance of security management. In this paper, managing practices for keeping security level of multimedia systems are induced and categorized.

Various information sources and the increasing vulnerabilities of information systems could increase the risks of a business. The successful management of business risks depends on appropriate level of risks in business. Business risk management would be conducted in terms of financial risk management and information security management. The financial management and the information security management could not achieve an integrated business risk management. For developing the integrated business risk management, this study analyzes the various information security management systems such as ISMS, EA, ISO27001, COBIT, SPICE, Auditing. This study analyzes information security systems, which could be utilized in developing business risk management.

The article substantiates the need and shows the features of introducing SMART management into the system of public management of regional development in the context of strengthening the national security of Ukraine. Disclosed are such provisions as: goal-setting; state mission; state mission in Ukraine; goals of the Ukrainian state; strategic management priorities in Ukraine. Differences between the purpose of the organization and the purpose of the state are determined. The characteristic of the goal at the state level is given. The management standards in SMART management are characterized. The issues of the exhaustibility of existing SMART criteria are reviewed and it is proposed to supplement them with two such as: inspiration (inspiration) and ity (ethics). Two main principles are defined (evaluated (assessment), reviewed (review)), which must be observed when introducing SMART management into the system of public management of regional development in the context of strengthening the national security of Ukraine.

This study presents an information security level index and a quantification scheme. A comprehensive survey on previous researches in information security checklists has been performed. A candidate indicator list for information security level has been developed, Desirability of each indicator has been tested by 4 criteria, They are general validity, relative importance, probability of accident and impact of accident. 67 experts' opinion has been collected and analysed. The result shows that selected indicators are a very good candidate set for the determination of information security level. A factor analysis shows indicators are well structured. There exists strong correlation between validity and probability, validity and impact, and importance and probability. A quantification scheme of information security index has been developed by experts' judgement and statistical tests.

Each organization installing and operating multimedia system, to achieve the goal of organization, should decide security level, implement security countermeasure, and manage these countermeasures to keep the effects. To decide and manage security level of multimedia system, the first, organizations must be able to decide security level, and then, organizations must establish procedures for building security countermeasures according to security level. For the next step, organizations must be able to select areas where security countermeasures should be applied, and the last, organizations must be able to evaluate and improve the effect of security countermeasures. In this paper, based on the analysis of threat to multimedia system and the consideration for multimedia assets, we propose a method for deciding security level of multimedia system.

Although Firms have been increasing their information security significantly to handle increased security risks, the effects of information security were not well understood. This study aims to investigate the market value of information security by employing the event study methodology. Our research also explores how market responses vary depending on the type of information security announcements. We collected 177 firm-level information security announcements between 2001 and 2017 in South Korea. For all samples, our results indicate that the stock market positively reacts to information security announcements. We also conducted subsample analysis and found that while information security certification announcement has a positive impact on the stock market, information security activities (e.g. award, information security system) announcement had no impact on the stock market. Our study adopted a novel approach (i.e. event study) for investigating the effects of information security and found that information security investment positively affects firm value. Our results allow managers to measure the effects of information security investment and help them make right decisions on information security investment.

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between a number of companies goes on increasing on the internet. Although a conventional EDI system reduces business process efforts, time, resources, etc., important information is easily and frequently exposed by well trained hackers and crackers, which inflict a severe loss on the company and even put the company under a crisis. This study integrates the conventional EDI system and Virtual Private Net (VPN) to maximize an overall efficiency of speed and security in data transaction by the level of importance. The EDI system properly interfaced to IPSec and L2TP of VPN allows us to select two modes: the one focuses on a high speed with a low or a medium level security or the other does on a high level security with a low or a medium level speed. Both the company and the end users get a lot of tangible and intangible advantages by integrating the EDI system and VPN.

As various measures of law observance obligations such as mandatory obligation of privacy impact assessment (PIA) for public institutions and authorization of information security management system (ISMS) are put into practice, increase in demand for information security consulting and securement of information security consultants are emerging as a major issue. The purpose of this study is to empirically investigate what core competencies information security consultants should possess and how much they actually possess them. By analyzing the differences in perception between practitioners and managers on core competencies, this study understands difference of views between the two groups and suggests ideas for cultivation of information security consultants.
