  • This thesis proposes how data security has changed since the emergence of 'Big Data' in 2012 and the type of Integrated Security Management System that needs to be built against security threats, based on an analysis of Big Data. Much research has been conducted in Big Data. I need to think about what an Integrated Security Management System requires in order to safeguard against security threats such as APT. I would like to draw a comparison between the current Integrated Security Management System and one that is based on Big Data, including its limitations and improvements, so that I can suggest a much improved version of Integrated Security Management System.

  • In the case of unauthorized individuals, systems and entities or process threatening the instrumentation and control systems of nuclear facilities using the intrinsic vulnerabilities of digital based technologies, those systems may lose their own required functions. The loss of required functions of the critical systems of nuclear facilities may seriously affect the safety of nuclear facilities. Consequently, digital instrumentation and control systems, which perform functions important to safety, should be designed and operated to respond to cyber threats capitalizing on the vulnerabilities of digital based technologies. To make it possible, the developers and licensees of nuclear facilities should perform appropriate cyber security program throughout the whole life cycle of digital instrumentation and control systems. Under the goal of securing the safety of nuclear facilities, this paper presents the KINS' regulatory position on cyber security program to remove the cyber threats that exploit the vulnerabilities of digital instrumentation and control systems and to mitigate the effect of such threats. Presented regulatory position includes establishing the cyber security policy and plan, analyzing and classifying the cyber threats and cyber security assessment of digital instrumentation and control systems.

  • These days, a conversion of the fast-advancing ICT (Information and Communications Technologies) and the IoT (Internet of Things) has been in progress. However, these conversion Technology could lead to many of the security threat existing in the ICT environment. The security threats of car in the IoT environment could cause the property damage and casualty. There are the inadequate preparations for the car security and the difficulty of detection for the security threats by itself. In this paper, we proposed the decision-making framework for the anomaly detection and found out what are the threats of car in the IoT environment. The discrimination of the factor, path and type of threats from the attack against the car should take priority over the self-inspection and the swift handling of the attack on control system.

  • In recent years, industrial automation has been established and WISN (Wireless Industrial Sensor Network) has been introduced for efficient system management. By introducing WISN, many engineering costs have been reduced and process processors have been optimized. And communication flow using wireless is increasing. An empirical study on industrial wireless sensor networks is actively conducted, but there are few security studies on them and they are exposed to such threats. If there is a problem with the standard of the wireless communication protocol itself, the device that is certified according to the standard may also be subject to security threats including problems. We analyze security functions and threats of ISA 100.11a and WirelessHART protocol stack based on standards. Procedures for distributing the security key are not provided or it is vulnerable using the Global Data Link key when the device enters the network. This paper presents the problems of the standard itself and presents the security requirements accordingly.
