  • A huge budget is spent on technological solutions to protect Information Systems from cyberattacks by organizations. However, it is not enough to invest alone in technology-based protection and to keep humans out of the cyber loop. Humans are considered the weakest link in cybersecurity chain and most of the time unaware that their actions and behaviors have consequences in cyber space. Therefore, humans' aspects cannot be neglected in cyber security field. In this work we carry out a systematic literature review to identify human factors in cybersecurity. A total of 27 papers were selected to be included in the review, which focuses on the human factors in cyber security. The results show that in total of 14 identified human factors, risk perception, lack of awareness, IT skills and gender are considered critical for organization as for as cyber security is concern. Our results presented a further step in understanding human factors that may cause issues for organizations in cyber space and focusing on the need of a customized and inclusive training and awareness programs.

  • Nowadays, openness and accessibility of information systems increase security threats from inside and outside of organization. Appropriate password is supposed to bring out security effects such as preventing misuses and banning illegal users. This study emphasizes on choosing passwords from perspective of information security and investigated user's security awareness affecting behavioral intention. The research model proposed in this study includes user's security belief which is influenced by risk awareness factors such as information assets, threats and vulnerability elements. The risk awareness factors ale derived from risk analysis methodologies for information security. User's risk awareness is a factor influencing the security belief, attitude toward security behavior, and security behavioral intention. According to the result of this study, while vulnerability is not related to the risk awareness, information assets and threats are related to the user's risk awareness. There is a significant relationship between risk awareness and security belief. Also, user's security behavioral intention is significantly affected by security attitude.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of employment related factors on household savings for precautionary purposes when controlling for financial security and to compare the results between the two different economic periods. A conceptual framework was developed based on the precautionary saving theory, the family stress theory, and previous empirical studies. As a self-insurance, a measure of security funds were developed and used as the dependent variable. Using data on working households in the 1992 and the 1998 Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF), a MLE estimation was conducted on the pooled data. The 1992 and 1998 data were used to reflect periods of economic recession and expansion, respectively. The results suggested that factors representing resources played the most significant role in determining the amount of security funds. Some of the employment related factors, preferences, financial security, and race were also significantly affected the amount of security funds. The results suggested that stable employment conditions were important for households to accumulate security funds. Households with more human resources and financial resources had a larger amount of security funds than those that had less human and financial resources. From the findings, implications for research, policies, and financial educators had been suggested.

  • Internet environment and innovative ICT(information and communication technology) have brought about big changes to our lifestyle and industrial structure. In spite of the convenience of Internet, various cyber incidents such as malicious code infection, personal information leakage, smishing(sms + phishing), and pharming have frequently occurred. Information security must be recognized as a key and compulsory element for surviving in a global economy. Strategic roles of information security have recently been increasing, but effective implementation of information security is still a major challenge to organizations. Our study examines the influencing factors of information security and investigates the causal relationship between information security maturity level and organizational performance through an empirical survey. According to the results of our study, personal, organizational, technical, and social factors affect organizations's information security maturity level altogether. This result suggests that when dealing with security issues, the holistic and multi-disciplinary approaches should be required. In addition, there is a causal relationship between information security maturity level and organizational performance, and organizations aim to establish the efficient and effective ways to enhance information security maturity level on the basis of the results of this study.

  • To protect information resources, many organizations including private corporate and government employ integrated information security systems which provide the functions of intrusion detection, firewall, and virus vaccine. So, in order to develop a reliable integrated information security system during the development life cycle, the managers in charge of the development of the system must effectively distribute the development resources to the quality factors of an integrated information security system. This study suggests a distribution methodology that minimizes the total cost with satisfying the minimum quality level of an integrated information security system by appropriately assigning development resources to quality factors considered. To achieve this goal, we identify quality factors of an integrated information system and then measure the relative weights among the quality factors using analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The suggested distribution methodology makes it possible to search an optimal solution which minimizes the total cost with satisfying the required quality levels of processes by assigning development resources to quality factors during the development life cycle.

  • 본 연구는 서울지역 S경호업체에서 경호업무를 수행하는 경호원을 대상으로 근무유형의 하위요인인 직위와 근무형태에 따른 체력과 심혈관질환 위험인자의 차이를 규명하는데 그 목적이 있었다. 모든 연구대상자는 심폐질환, 정형외과적 질환, 그리고 대사성질환이 없는 건강한 남자 60명이었다. 본 연구의 자료처리 방법은 SPSS Version 12.0 program을 이용하여 모든 자료의 평균과 표준편차를 산출하였으며, 경호원의 근무유형에 따른 체력과 심혈관질환 위험인자의 차이를 검증하기 위하여 일원변량분석을 실시하였다. 각 변인들의 분석 후 통계적 유의성이 나타난 경우 사후검증을 실시하였다. 결과에 따르면, 첫째, 경호원의 직위에 따라서는 직위가 낮을수록 체력수준이 높았고, 직위가 높을수록 체지방률과 심혈관질환 위험도가 높았다. 둘째, 경호원의 근무형태에 따라서는 현장직 경호원의 체력수준이 높고, 체지방률과 심혈관질환 위험도가 낮았다. 셋째, 경호원의 체력수준이 높을수록 체지방률과 심혈관질환 위험도는 감소되었다. 결론적으로, 경호원의 과체중 또는 비만감소, 심혈관질환 위험도 감소의 긍정적 변화를 가져오기 위해서는 간부급 경호원의 유산소성 운동을 기반으로 한 신체활동이 요구되어진다.

  • 최근 국내 외 여러 산업분야에서는 사물 인터넷(internet of things)과 클라우드 컴퓨팅 서비스(cloud computing service), 빅 데이터(big data) 등과 같은 융합 IT기술들의 등장으로 보안에 대한 중요성이 점차 높아지고 있다. 이러한 가운데 산업 보안(Industrial Security) 시장은 점차 커질 것으로 전망하고 있으며, 보안 기술의 진화뿐만 아니라 취약성 또한 증가할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 따라서 다양한 IT 환경으로의 진화로 인한 물리적 취약요인의 증가는 여러 산업분야들의 보안성을 결정짓는 잣대가 된다고 해도 과언이 아니다. 이에 대해 본 논문은 융합 IT환경에서의 물리 보안 기술들과 적용 사례, 물리적 취약요인들에 대해 조사 및 분석해 봄으로써, 향후, 물리적 침해 및 공격에 대한 대응 방안 마련에 활용될 것으로 기대한다.

  • "I think security is only trying to make it uncomfortable." "10% of my work is entering IDs and passwords, such as boot passwords, mobile phone authentication numbers, etc." As reflected in the complaint above, stress caused by information security among organizations' members is increasing. In order to strengthen information security, practical solutions to reduce stress are needed because the motivation of the members is needed in order for organizations to function properly. Therefore, this study attempts to suggest key factors that can enhance security while reducing information security stress among members of organizations. To this end, based on the theory of protection motivation, trust and security stress from information security policies are set as mediating factors to explain changes in security reinforcement behavior. Furthermore, risk, efficacy, and reaction costs of cyberattacks are considered as prerequisites. Our study suggests a solution to the security reinforcement problem by analyzing the factors that influence the behavior of members of organizations. In turn, this can raise protection motivation among members.

  • 이 연구는 민간경비 분야에 대한 연구 경향을 살펴봄으로써 민간경비 분야의 발전 방향을 제시하고자 하는 데 목적을 두고 있다. 연구 경향을 살펴보는데 있어 특정 학문이나 대상의 경향을 분석하는 대표적인 연구방법인 언어 네트워크 분석 방법 중 연결중앙성과 인접중앙성을 활용하여 분석하였다. 그 결과, 연결중앙성과 인접중앙성의 경우에서 직무스트레스, 직무만족와 같은 개인적인 요소들이 경비업법이나 경비원의 교육훈련과 같은 민간경비의 제도적 정책적 문제보다 더 많이 키워드로 나타났다. 이러한 결과들로 볼 때, 민간경비 분야 연구 경향에 있어 제도적 정책적 연구보다는 민간경비원의 개인적 요소에 관한 연구들이 많이 진행되고 있다는 것을 알 수 있다. 이 연구에서의 연구 대상이 국회도서관 내 검색된 연구결과물들만을 대상으로 했다는 점에서 일반화하기엔 한계가 있으며, 추후 그 연구 대상을 확대하여 좀 더 보완 확대할 필요할 것으로 보인다.
