Abstract
Security issues arise due to various types of external intrusions as much as the rapidly changing IT environment. Attacks using vulnerabilities in web applications are increasing, and companies are trying to find the cause of the vulnerability, prevent external intrusion, and protect their systems and important information. Especially, according to the Supervision Regulation, each financial institution and electronic financial service provider shall perform vulnerability analysis evaluation for the website for disclosure once every six months and report the result to the Financial Services Commission. In this study, based on the Web vulnerability items defined in the Supervision Regulation, based on the inspection cases of actual financial institution, we analyze the most frequently occurring items and propose effective countermeasures against them and ways to prevent them from occurring in advance.
