Because of the development of computers and networks, the use of the internet has been rapidly increased. The smart devices, such as smart phones and tablet PCs, have made an epoch-making changes, which have brought people's daily lives to the cyber world and life values have been improved. The cyber world not only just changed individual's lives, but also affected all areas and the world. The recent global trends reside mainly in protection of energy sources, and nation's dependency of the information system such as politic, economic and national security. Since major national infrastructure becomes a stragic attack target, the importance of cyber warfare has rised as an effective way to attact enermy. This article explores the concept of cyber warfare and national cyber capability, and then figure out the plan of reaction to minimize damages with best protection when cyber warfare occurs.

With the development of information technology and the growth of the scale of system and network, cyber threats and crimes continue to increase. To cope with these threats, cybersecurity training based on actual attacks and defenses is required. However, cybersecurity training requires expert analysis and attack performance, which is inefficient in terms of cost and time. In this paper, we propose a cyber attack simulator that automatically executes attack techniques. This simulator generates attack scenarios by combining attack techniques modeled to be implemented and executes the attack by sequentially executing the derived scenarios. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed attack simulator, we experimented by setting an example attack goal and scenarios in a real environment. The attack simulator successfully performed five attack techniques to gain administrator privileges.

Information security simulator is required for the study on the cyber intrusion and defense as information security has been increasingly popular Until now, the main purposes of information security simulation are security estimation of small network as well as performance analysis of information protection systems. However, network simulators that can simulate attacks in a huge network are in needs since large scale internet attacks are very common in these days. In this paper we proposed a simulator design and its implementation details. Our simulator is implemented by expanding the SSFNet program to the client-sewer architecture. A cyber attack scenario used in our simulator is composed by the advanced attack tree model. We analyzed the simulation results to show the correctness of our network defense simulator.

The recent issue of distributed denial of service attack paralyze major government and financial institution in internet sites. They threatened to the cyber security. There hasn't been easy defense of now using attack. There seems to be increases in damage. In this paper, The recent continue to evolve of distributed denial of service attack. DNS target of distributed denial of service attack give specific examples. but, DNS target of DDoS attacks about defense is insufficient. The DNS Cyber-shelter system was created based on the Cyber-shelter system for DDoS attack in Kisa.. We proposal DNS Cyber-shelter system.

2008년 미국 Hatch 발전소에서 제어시스템 소프트웨어 업데이트로 인한 비상정지, 2010년 이란 원자력시설에서 악성코드 스턱스넷(Stuxnet) 감염을 통한 원심분리기 1,000여개 파괴 등 원자력시설에 대한 사이버공격이 점차 증가하고 있는 상황에서 우리나라도 이와 같은 사고를 예방하기 위한 방안을 강구하여야 한다. 이미 우리나라 원자력시설에서 사용되는 시스템들이 아날로그 방식에서 디지털로 교체되고 있는 등 사이버공격에 용이하게 변화되고 있다. 이에 원전 사고연계 시스템들의 보안성을 평가할 수 있는 환경을 구축함으로써 사이버공격에 대한 보안대책 마련 및 근본적인 방어 체계를 수립하고자 한다.

Recently, with the development of information and communication infrastructure, the number of Internet access devices is rapidly increasing. Smartphones, laptops, computers, and even IoT devices are receiving information and communication services through Internet access. Since most of the device operating environment consists of web (WEB), it is vulnerable to web cyber attacks using web shells. When the web shell is uploaded to the web server, it is confirmed that the attack frequency is high because the control of the web server can be easily performed. As the damage caused by the web shell occurs a lot, each company is responding to attacks with various security devices such as intrusion prevention systems, firewalls, and web firewalls. In this case, it is difficult to detect, and in order to prevent and cope with web shell attacks due to these characteristics, it is difficult to respond only with the existing system and security software. Therefore, it is an automated defense system through the collection and analysis of web shells based on artificial intelligence machine learning that can cope with new cyber attacks such as detecting unknown web shells in advance by using artificial intelligence machine learning and deep learning techniques in existing security software. We would like to propose about. The machine learning-based web shell defense system model proposed in this paper quickly collects, analyzes, and detects malicious web shells, one of the cyberattacks on the web environment. I think it will be very helpful in designing and building a security system.

The Russian-Ukraine war is accompanied by a military armed conflict and cyberattacks are in progress. As Russia designated Korea as an unfriendly country, there is an urgent need to prepare countermeasures as the risk of cyberattacks on Korea has also increased. Accordingly, impact of 19 cyberattack cases were analyzed by their type, and characteristics and implications were derived by examining them from five perspectives, including resource mobilization and technological progress. Through this, a total of seven measures were suggested as countermeasures for the Korean government, including strengthening multilateral cooperation with value-sharing countries, securing cyberattack capabilities and strengthening defense systems, and preparing plans to connect with foreign security companies. The results of this study can be used to establish the Korean government's cybersecurity policy.

In this paper, we want to solve the problems that users want to search the progress of attack, continuity of attack, association between attackers and victims, blocking priority and countermeasures by using visualization interface with multi-rotational axis and radial axis structure. It is possible to effectively monitor and track security events by arranging a time series event based on a multi-rotational axis structured by an event generation order, a subject of an event, an event type, and an emission axis, which is an objective time indicating progress of individual events. The proposed interface is a practical visualization interface that can apply attack blocking and defense measures by providing the progress and progress of the whole attack, the details and continuity of individual attacks, and the relationship between attacker and victim in one screen.

Due to the expansion of cyber space, war patterns are also changing from traditional warfare to cyber warfare. Cyber warfare is the use of computer technology to disrupt the activities of nations and organizations, especially in the defense sector. However, the defense against effective cyber threat environment is inadequate. To complement this, a new cyber warfare operation concept is needed. In this paper, we study the concepts of cyber intelligence surveillance reconnaissance, active defense and response, combat damage assessment, and command control in order to carry out cyber operations effectively. In addition, this paper proposes the concept of cyber warfare operation that can achieve a continuous strategic advantage in cyber battlefield.

In the whole world the Attack Technologies of cyber warfare in modern society are growing faster and complicated. The frequency of the new attacks is shorter than before day by day. The defense technologies and experts against these attacks are very few. One of answers to solve these problems is the cyber range as a test-bed to prepare the cyber warfare considered by many countries. This paper examines the foreign cases and similar systems, collects and analyzes various attributes for cyber range. Finally it refines them through system engineering processes. In these processes missions and concepts for administration are set with architecture framework. The logical architecture is designed. Based on designed architecture two goals, defense technologies and procurement of experts, are established. And it shows effective and persistent administration of cyber range.
