Since the concept of virtual currency called Bitcoin was announced in 2008, the blockchain technology, which is the basis of Bitcoin, is attracting attention as an important platform technology in the era of the 4th industrial revolution that can change our society in the future. Although Existing electronic financial transactions store and manage all transaction history at a reliable central organization such as government and bank, blockchain-based electronic financial transactions are composed of a distributed structure in which all participants participating in the transaction store and manage the transaction history, it is possible to secure transaction transparency while reducing system construction and operation costs. Besides the virtual currency that started with bit coins, the technology of these blockchains has been extended in various fields such as smart contracts and document management. The key technology area of this blockchain is security based on proven cryptographic technology to make it difficult to forge and hack, but there are security risks such as security vulnerabilities in the virtual currency trading service, We will discuss security risks in using virtual currency and discuss countermeasures. Especially security accidents of virtual currency exchanges are occurring frequently recently, the damage of users who trade the virtual currency is also increasing, we propose security threats and security countermeasures against virtual currency exchanges.

Existing online voting is not being used for public elections due to uncertainty about security threats, and offline voting costs a lot of money. As an alternative, blockchain is emerging. Applying blockchain technology to online voting will ensure transparency and confidentiality, because voter information and aggregate information are distributed and managed. Since a blockchain distributes the voting information, it will be more secure than existing central server - based online voting systems. If blockchain technology is applied to public elections, and the transparency and confidentiality of the voting information is guaranteed, the cost of voting will be greatly reduced. This paper tries to apply to an online voting system the Ethereum platform from among the blockchain technologies. Ethereum is a highly scalable blockchain technology that provides a smart contract based on the Solidity language to develop an online voting contract and to distribute the contract to each voter. Each voter votes on the contract that has been distributed, and the votes are distributed to other voters. The experiment verifies the consistency of the stored voting information.

With the widespread adoption of blockchain in the field of business, the importance of confidentiality of critical information has been emerging. Although blockchain models solve the security problem regarding integrity threat by sharing transactions and making them public, it is vulnerable in terms of confidentiality. Therefore, a security mechanism to provide confidentiality of critical information and private information of a firm is necessary to utilize block chain in the process of work. In order to solve the problem, we suggest Private blockchain based cryptographic protocol application model using Smart contract commitment scheme of the Ethereum. It can contribute to activation of blockchain services by enabling non-trusted participants to perform businesses through application of smart contract enhanced in terms of confidentiality and integrity to private blockchain.

Ransomware, a malicious program that requires money and then locks computers and files on network users for financial harvesting, will continue to evolve. Ransomware is a threat in mail systems that send and receive business information. By using Block Chain, Distributed Ledger technology, it is designed to be a safe mail system in which the automatically generated Ramsomware symptom data is directly linked to the security policy in the enterprise.

Recently, the threat to the security and damage of important data leaked by devices of intranet infected by malicious code through the Internet have been increasing. Therefore, the partitioned intranet model that blocks access to the server for business use by implementing authentication of devices connected to the intranet is required. For this, logical net partition with the VDI(Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) method is no information exchange between physical devices connected to the intranet and the virtual device so that it could prevent data leakage and improve security but it is vulnerable to the attack to expose internal data, which has access to the server for business connecting a nonregistered device into the intranet. In order to protect the server for business, we suggest a blockchain based network partition model applying blockchain technology to VDI. It contributes to decrease in threat to expose internal data by improving not only capability to verify forgery of devices, which is the vulnerability of the VDI based logical net partition, but also the integrity of the devices.

Over the past few years, IoT edges have begun to emerge based on new low-latency communication protocols such as 5G. However, IoT edges, despite their enormous advantages, pose new complementary threats, requiring new security solutions to address them. In this paper, we propose a cloud environment-based IoT edge architecture model that complements IoT systems. The proposed model acts on machine learning to prevent security threats in advance with network traffic data extracted from IoT edge devices. In addition, the proposed model ensures load and security in the access network (edge) by allocating some of the security data at the local node. The proposed model further reduces the load on the access network (edge) and secures the vulnerable part by allocating some functions of data processing and management to the local node among IoT edge environments. The proposed model virtualizes various IoT functions as a name service, and deploys hardware functions and sufficient computational resources to local nodes as needed.

메타버스는 인공지능, 블록체인, 네트워크, 가상 현실, 착용 가능한 기기 등 수많은 현대 기술들이 발전하면서 서로 융합되어 생성된 대규모 디지털 가상화 세계이다. 현재 메타버스 기반 다양한 플랫폼들이 대중화되면서 산업계 및 연구계에서는 메타버스의 발전에 주목하고 있으며, 긍정적인 시장 전망을 예상하고 있다. 하지만, 아직까지 메타버스 세계에서 발생할 수 있는 보안 위협 요소 및 대책에 관한 연구는 상대적으로 부족하다. 메타버스는 새로운 패러다임의 컨텐츠 및 서비스를 제공하고, 기존 IT 환경에서보다 방대하고 예민할 수 있는 사용자의 데이터를 요구하며, 여러 IT 기술들이 결합된 시스템인 만큼 고려해야 할 보안 위협 요소들이 많다. 본 논문에서는 메타버스 아키텍처를 소개하고, 사용자의 이용 환경, 가상 환경 및 디지털 트윈 환경에서 발생할 수 있는 보안 위협 요소들에 대해 제시하면서, 이에 대해 메타버스 서비스 제공자, 사용자 및 관련 제도 관리자들이 고려할 수 있는 대책들에 대해 소개한다.

Today's payment systems are becoming unmanned and changing to a way of paying with kiosks. This has the advantage of convenient payment because consumers can select a menu and specify the number of products to be purchased with just a touch of the screen. However, from the point of view of system security, the actual kiosk system has various vulnerabilities. This can hijack the administrator account, gain system privileges, and perform malicious actions. In addition, it is exposed to a number of security threats, such as the possibility of wasting unnecessary resources by abnormally increasing the number of payments, and causing the device to fail to operate normally. Therefore, in this paper, if any node of a participant in the solana blockchain approves an incorrect fork, the stake of the voting nodes is deleted. Also, since all participants can see the transaction history due to the nature of the block chain, I intend to write a thesis on a system that improves the vulnerability of kiosk payments by separating the access rights through the private blockchain.

헬스케어 분야에서 제공되는 서비스는 의료 및 건강과 같은 의료정보를 다루기 때문에 개인의 생명과 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있다. 개인 의료 정보는 매우 민감하고 개인적인 정보이기 때문에 만약 이 정보가 불법적으로 유출되거나 악용된다면 개인의 프라이버시 침해뿐만 아니라 생명까지도 위협받을 것이다. 그렇기 때문에 개인의 건강 및 의료 정보가 체계적으로 관리되고 의료 서비스 기관에 의한 개인 의료 정보 유출 및 남용을 방지하기 위해 정보 보안 시스템이 강화되어야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 헬스 케어 분야에서 발생할 수 있는 정보 보안 취약점에 대한 이슈를 분석하고 블록체인 기술을 바탕으로 보안 취약점에 대한 해결책을 제시하고자 한다.
