  • The growth in the use of ubiquitous computing based on mobile services as an enabler to conduct business more effectively has been phenomenal. Technology acceptance model (TAM) has been applied in different contexts to examine a wide range of information technologies (IT). As more and more companies are finding ways to utilize ubiquitous computing based on mobile services, an important issue is to understand what factors will impact the decisions of consumers in adopting the services. Based on TAM with three additional groups of external factors, i.e., service-related factors (ubiquitous access, context awareness) and technology-related factors (perceived security risk, network connectivity) that are theoretically justified as having influence on both perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use which are additionally considered, a research model for the investigated technology acceptance was developed and empirically examined, using responses from more than intended users of ubiquitous computing based on mobile services. The specific purposes of this study are as follows. Firstly, this study is to identify service beliefs considering unique characteristics for ubiquitous services such as perceived ubiquitous access and perceived context awareness. Secondly, this study is to investigate network characteristics beliefs such as perceived security and perceived connectivity. Thirdly, this paper investigates the relationship among variables such as ubiquitous characteristics, network characteristics, behavioral beliefs, and intention to use ubiquitous web services. This study uses a structural equation model to test the research model. The major results of this study are as follows. Firstly, ubiquitous access has a influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Context awareness has an influence on perceived usefulness. Secondly, User familiarity has an influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, and intention to use. User innovativeness has an influence on perceived ease of use. Thirdly, perceived security risk has an influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Network connectivity has an influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Fourth, there exist differential effects among factors in structural model among information, transaction, and entertainment services.

  • This paper proposed a method that prevents data leakage and modulation and detects an unauthorized device by using AP and mobile device. Most of existing method for detecting and preventing an unauthorized device are similar to type of Evil Twin. However, in previous studies can not resolve many security accident and have the problem to cope with effectively security accident on various network. In order to solve these problem, companies prepare security accident through the varies policy and guideline. but It is hard to prevent all security accident because it is consistently increasing everyday. This paper suggests technique of detecting and preventing an unauthorized device using Context Awareness and Mobile Device Management. Firstly, when mobile device go into internal network, server distinguish access permission and authorization of mobile device using acquiring the conetxt information of mobile device. By using this result, server applies the appropriate management technique to the mobile device for leakage and accident of internal network.

  • After the enactment of the Personal Information Protection Act, policies and activities for the personal information protection have been actively promoted. However the people are showing negative attitudes about personal information, as the ongoing personal data leakages. Therefore, authors tried to empirical analysis of the effectiveness of national policy on the protection of personal information, using SERVQUAL model, focused on the people's perception, in order to identify that how the people recognized current policy. Authors find that the public has perceived the effectiveness of the policy positively, but the level of their awareness is low. And we identify that the people are highly aware of the policy's effectiveness for Immediacy, Convenience and Responsibility, while they have the lowest effectiveness for Efficiency. The policy's improvement focused on the public's low expectations/perceptions and effectiveness awareness, is required in order to develop people-oriented national privacy policy that are satisfied by the people.

  • Security quad and cube (SQC) is a network attack analyzer that is capable of aggregating many different events into a single significant incident and visualizing these events in order to identify suspicious or illegitimate behavior. A network administrator recognizes network anomalies by analyzing the traffic data and alert messages generated in the security devices; however, it takes a lot of time to inspect and analyze them because the security devices generate an overwhelming amount of logs and security events. In this paper, we propose SQC, an efficient method for analyzing network security through visualization. The proposed method monitors anomalies occurring in an entire network and displays detailed information of the attacks. In addition, by providing a detailed analysis of network attacks, this method can more precisely detect and distinguish them from normal events.

  • Owing to their low scalability, weak support on big data, insufficient data collaborative analysis and inadequate situational awareness, the traditional methods fail to meet the needs of the security data analysis. This paper proposes visualization methods to fuse the multi-source security data and grasp the network situation. Firstly, data sources are classified at their collection positions, with the objects of security data taken from three different layers. Secondly, the Heatmap is adopted to show host status; the Treemap is used to visualize Netflow logs; and the radial Node-link diagram is employed to express IPS logs. Finally, the Labeled Treemap is invented to make a fusion at data-level and the Time-series features are extracted to fuse data at feature-level. The comparative analyses with the prize-winning works prove this method enjoying substantial advantages for network analysts to facilitate data feature fusion, better understand network security situation with a unified, convenient and accurate mode.

  • Due to the increase in the use of the Internet, it is becoming more common to provide or use a social login for registering for services. Herein, the purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of security, individual innovativeness, ubiquity and brand awareness on the use of social log-in service through the individuals' attitude who have memorized various IDs and passwords by using Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). In addition, the effect of individual innovativeness on the relationship between social login characteristic factors and attitudes toward social login services are examined. Based on the statistical results, it is found that the significant factors affecting the attitude toward the social login service are the security, ubiquity, brand awareness and perceived usefulness. Moreover, the individual innovativeness is found to have the moderating effects in the relationship between the three factors (the perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use, and security) and attitude toward the social login service. Positive attitudes increase with the usefulness, ease of using social login serive when individual innovativeness is high. On the other hand, when individual innovativeness is low, the stronger the effect of security on attitude toward the social login services. In accordance with these results, the implications and limitations of this study are discussed.
