  • Many computer security systems use the signatures of well-known attacks to respond to hackers. For these systems, it is very important to get the accurate signatures of new attacks as soon as possible. For this reason, honeypots and honeypot farms have been actively researched. However, they can only collect a small amount of information because hackers have a strong tendency to directly attack servers of which IP addresses are allocated. In this paper, we propose an unused ports-based decoy system to redirect hackers toward honeypots. This system opens unused ports to lure hackers. All interactions with the unused ports are considered as suspect, because the ports aren't those for real service. Accordingly, every request sent to the unused ports is redirected to a honeypot. Consequently, this system enables honeypots to collect information about hackers attacking real servers other than themselves.

  • A honeypot is a security resource whose value lies in being attack. It collects data regarding the attack strategies and tools of hackers. However, the honeypot is normally located at a single point, and the possibility is small that a hacker will attack it. Unused ports-based decoy systems which gather data about hackers activities have been developed to complement honeypots. However, the systems have some problems to be deployed in actual environment. In this paper, we propose an agent-based system which enhances shortcomings of the unused ports-based decoy systems. It makes honeypot gather more information regarding hacker activities and protects clients from attacks. Moreover, the proposed system can increase the chance of tracking hackers activities without wasting additional IP addresses and computer hardwares.

  • Damage and attack size of cyber terror is growing to the national size. Not only targeting at a certain companies or individuals but number of cyber terror targeting government bodies or unspecific people is increasing. This is because compared to traditional weapon, input cost is very cheap but ripple effect and shock are much stronger, affecting not only certain groups but also each individuals. 'Anti-terror measurement for protection of nation and public safety' passed last month is one of the renowned measurement passed regardless of objection from opposition party. The opposition party went against this through filibuster for 192 hours but this finally passed National Congress due to lack of oppositions. Korean government is taking post actions after passage of anti-terror measurement. Legislation of enforcement ordinance and regulations is due by 6th of next month. This regulation will be executed from June 4th after legislation. Whenever there is any security issues such as hacking of Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power and National Intelligence Service happens, lot of attention is made to those hackers. However, social recognition or management of those hackers need lot more improvement. Especially, as market of internet of things is increasing, there is an increased anxiety on information security. But as we only rely on security solutions, this problems are keep happening. Therefore, active investment on nurturing hackers who play the role of 'spear and shield' shall be made. Government should put more efforts to allow white hackers to show their abilities. We should have a policy for supporting high-quality programs such as BoB. To make information protection industry into future growth engine, it is necessary to nurture professionals for information protection and white hackers through special programs. Politicians should make related regulations as soon as possible to remove factors that prevent swift management of cyber attack due to lack of legislation. Government should pay lot more financial investment to nurturing professional manpower than now. Protecting life and asset of nation is responsibility and duty of our government. We all should recognize that controlling cyber attack is a part of national defense.

  • U.S. Obama government is submit a motion to consider cyber attacks on State as a war. 7.7DDoS attack in Korea in 2009 and 3.4 DDoS attacks 2011, the country can be considered about cyber attacks. China hackers access a third country, bypassing South Korea IP by hacking the e-commerce sites with fake account, that incident was damaging finance. In this paper, for WiBro service, DDoS attacks, hackers, security incidents and vulnerabilities to the analysis. From hacker's attack, WiBro service's prognostic relevance by analyzing symptoms and attacks, in real time, Divide Red, Orange, Yellow, Green belonging to the risk rating. For hackers to create a blacklist, to defend against attacks in real-time air-conditioning system is the study of security. WiBro networks for incident tracking and detection after the packets through the national incident response should contribute to the development of technology.

  • Despite the extant quantum communication technology that does not allow copying, wiretapping, and/or monitoring, cyber-terror-attempts from hackers with unconscientious purposes and motives are prospected to persist. Hence, it is imperative and necessary to invest in studies geared toward understanding the psychology of hackers. The current study referred to Beebe & Clark (2006) and sought out the psychological variables in hackers involved in deviant hacking activities, measured the purpose of hacking and actual hacking experiences, and constructed a predictive model that can categorize hacker types based on their intentions.

  • In this paper, we describe a SSAS (stepping stones attack simulator) that is automatic tool for testing and evaluation in TCP connection traceback system. The SSAS can pass multiple hosts that are included with hacker, middle-path hosts and victim’s system. And SSAS can also attack through commands to exploit the victim’s system. Usually, hackers do not expose their real attack positions through compromising the middle-path hosts like stepping-stones. Namely, hackers perform the stepping stones attacks in Internet. The SSAS can be utilized by developments and tests of the various countermeasure techniques of hacking. Specially, in this paper, it is used to test the performance of TCP connection traceback system.

  • In this paper we introduce a new paradigm of physical layer security for wireless network. Existing security protocols like internet's transport layer security protocol has some security flaws that skilled hackers could exploit. Motivated from this point we introduce a new security protocol that works in physical layer which is much less vulnerable to hackers than any other higher layers. In our proposal, we incorporate the proposed security protocol within channel coding as channel coding is an essential part of wireless communication. We utilize the flexibility to choose a generator matrix (or generator polynomial) of a particular code that selects the code words as a core of our protocol. Each pair of wireless node will select a unique generator using their security key before they started to communicate with each other.

  • In the Past, Trend of car security was Physical Something like doorlock system, and The Generation did not have skills connecting External devices. Through Car Development is up, that trend of car security Changed Physical Security to Intelligence Security. This Changes give a chance to hackers to attack this system. This System use CAN(Controller Area Network) Protocol which have three vulnerabilities. First, ID Spoofing, Twice, D - Dos Attack, Third, Android Application Injected Modern cars have many ECU(Electronic Control Unit) to control devices like Engine ON/OFF, Door Lock Handling, and Controlling Handle. Because CAN Protocol spread signal using broadcast, Hackers can get the signal very easily, and Those often use Mobile devices like Android or IOS to attack this system. if bluetooth signal is spread wide, hackers get the signal, and analysis the bluetooth data, so then They makes certain data to attack ECU, they send the data to ECU, and control ECU installed car. so I suggest that I will prevent this attack to make Auth system and prevent this attack in end of Android.
