  • The encryption of a file on a PC before saving can maintain security of the file. However, if the key for the encrypted file is lost or damaged, the encrypted file can not be decrypted, resulting in serious economical loss to the user or the user group. In order to minimize the economical loss a secure and reliable key recovery technology is required. Presented in this paper is the development and evaluation of PKRS (PC based Key Recovery System) which supports encryption and decryption of file and recovery of the encrypted file in emergency. The encapsulating method, which attaches key recovery information to encrypted file, is applied to the PKRS. In addition, the PKRS is developed and evaluated according to the requirements of Requirements for Key Recovery Products proposed by NIST and requirements of Common Criteria 2.0 to prove the safety and reliability of the information security system. This system is applicable to a PC and can be further extended to internet or intranet environment information system where in encryption and recovery of file is possible.

  • This study is to prepare an evaluation standard about personal information protection and security management of a medical institution and to build up a grade standard of evaluation in PACS environment. We built up evaluation index based on 10 detailed items in four big categories (political security, technical security, data management security and physical security) by referring to ISO17799 (BS 7799), HIPPA (Health Insurance and Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) and domestic medical law. We have investigated at the thirty places where medical facility with the extracted security criteria and security evaluation index. Average score of physical security list, one of the big categories, was 18.5/20 (93%) at all medical institutions. Political security score was 18.5/30 (62%), data management security score was 12/20 (60%) and technical security score was 17.5/30 (58%). Therefore, security evaluation score was average 67 in 30 general hospitals, which was 4th level. The results showed that it is necessary to establish evaluation and management standard about personal information protection and security consciousness which are weak in PACS environment.

  • As the area covered by the CPS grows wider, agencies such as public institutions and critical infrastructure are collectively measuring and evaluating information security capabilities. Currently, these methods of measuring information security are a concrete method of recommendation in related standards. However, the security controls used in these methods are lacking in connectivity, causing silo effect. In order to solve this problem, there has been an attempt to study the information security management system in terms of maturity. However, to the best of our knowledge, no research has considered the specific definitions of each level that measures organizational security maturity or specific methods and criteria for constructing such levels. This study developed an information security maturity model that can measure and manage the information security capability of critical infrastructure based on information provided by an expert critical infrastructure information protection group. The proposed model is simulated using the thermal power sector in critical infrastructure of the Republic of Korea to confirm the possibility of its application to the field and derive core security processes and goals that constitute infrastructure security maturity. The findings will be useful for future research or practical application of infrastructure ISMSs.

  • The importance of security for virtualization products has been increased with the activation policy of cloud computing and it is necessary to analyze cyber security threats and develop security requirements for virtualization products to provide with more secure cloud environments. This paper is a preliminary study with the purpose of developing security functional requirements through analyzing security features and cyber security threats as well as comparison of foreign countries' cases for virtualization products. To do this, the paper compares evaluation schemes for virtualization products in US and UK foreign countries, and analyzes the cyber security threats, security objectives and security requirements in both countries. Furthermore, it proposes the essential checking items and processes for developing security functional requirements about security features of virtualization products to contribute to its more secure development and the establishment of related security evaluation standards.

  • Information technology has been made remarkable progress and most of computer systems are connected with internet over the world. We have not only advantages to access them easy, but also disadvantages to misuse information, abuse, crack, and damage privacy. We should have safeguards to preserve confidentiality, integrity and availability for our information system. Even tough the security is very important for the defense information system, we should not over limit users availability. BS7799, a British standard, is an evaluation criteria for information security management. In this paper we propose an audit model to manage and audit information security using control items of BS7799, which could be useful to mange the defence information system security. We standardize audit items, and classify them by levels, and degrees by using appropriate audit techniques / methods / processes.

  • Chatbot services are used in various fields in connection with AI services. Security research on AI is also in its infancy, but research on practical security in the service implementation stage using it is more insufficient. This paper analyzes the security requirements for chatbot services linked to AI services. First, the paper analyzes the recently published papers and articles on AI security. A general implementation model is established by investigating chatbot services provided in the market. The implementation model includes five components including a chatbot management system and an AI engine Based on the established model, the protection assets and threats specialized in Chatbot services are summarized. Threats are organized around threats specialized in chatbot services through a survey of chatbot service managers in operation. Ten major threats were drawn. It derived the necessary security areas to cope with the organized threats and analyzed the necessary security requirements for each area. This will be used as a security evaluation criterion in the process of reviewing and improving the security level of chatbot service.

  • At the present moment when around 60 years have passed after the introduction of private security, there are security instructor and protection specialist guard as government official recognition qualification. This study discussed problems of secondary performance test system among qualification certification items which have been implement ed as government official recognition qualification since 2013. Current qualification certification for protection specialist guard is composed of primary academic test and secondary performance test. Since it is estimated that it is high time to increase clients' satisfaction and public reliability through strict qualification certification for protection specialist guard. Following improvement plans are intended to suggest. First, it is a plan to divide and diversify difficulties of performance test evaluation events. Second, it is a plan to diversify evaluation criteria of performance test. Third, it is a plan to make criteria for selecting specialized performance test evaluation committee. Fourth, it is a new plan of exclusion system to avoid any relation between performance test evaluation committee and applicants. In this respect, institutional improvement should be followed in order to improve specialty of qualification certification of performance test system for protection specialist guard.

  • To effectively prevent the spread of COVID-19 infections, contact tracing technology based on ICT technology is used and various types exist depending on the way they are tracked. However, these technologies are always exposed to security threats and each type of threat varies. In this paper, we identified processes that occur in common in various types of contact tracing technology and identified possible threats in this process. This resulted in a common evaluation criteria applicable to all types of contact tracing technologies and applied to actual published contact tracing technologies to perform comparative analysis by type. These studies can help select safe and effective contact tracing technologies through comparisons between different types.
