While evolving information-oriented society provides a lot of benefits to the human life, new types of threats have been increasing. Particularly, cyber terrorism, happen on the network that is composed of a computer system and information communication network, and the mean and scale of damage has reached a serious level. In other words, it is hard to locate cyber terror since it occurs in the virtual space, not in the real world, so identifying "Who is attacking?" (Non-visibility, non-formulas), or "Where the attack takes place?" (trans-nation) are hard. Hackers, individuals or even a small group of people, who carried out the cyber terror are posing new threats that could intimidate national security and the pace and magnitude of threats keep evolving. Scale and capability of North Korea's cyber terrorism are assessed as world-class level. Recently, North Korea is focusing on strengthen their cyber terrorism force. So improving a response system for cyber terror is a key necessity as North Korea's has emerged as a direct threat to South Korean security. Therefore, Korea has to redeem both legal and institutional systems immediately to perform as a unified control tower for preemptive response to cyber terrors arise from North Korea and neighboring countries.

The purpose of this paper is to ccompare and analyze North Korean cyber attacks and our responses by government, from the Roh Moo-hyun administration to the Moon Jae-in administration. The current conflict of interests on the Korean peninsula, such as the United States, China, and Russia, is leading to a conflict for the leadership of a new world order in cyberspace. Cyber attacks are accelerating and threats are rising. Cyber threats exhibit several characteristics. Above all, it is difficult to identify or track the subject of the threat. Also, with the development of information and communication technology, attack technology has become more intelligent, and it is not easy to prepare a means to respond. Therefore, it is necessary to improve continuous and preemptive response capacity for national cybersecurity, and to establish governance among various actors, such as international cooperation between countries or private experts.

The Ministry of National Defense is strengthening the power and capacity of cyber operations as cyber protection training is conducted. However, considering the level of enemy cyber attack capability, the level of cyber defense capability of the ministry of national defense is significantly low and the protection measures and response system for responding to cyber threats to military networks are not clearly designed, falling short of the level of cyber security capabilities of the public and private sectors. Therefore, this paper is to investigate and verify the establishment of a military internal network vulnerability mitigation system that applies the intention of attackers, tactics, techniques and procedures information (ATT&CK Framework), identified military internal network main threat information, and military information system security requirements with military specificity as factors that can establish a defense network vulnerability mitigation system by referring to the domestic and foreign cyber security framework It has the advantage of having.

Recently, cyber attacks are continuously threatening the cyberspace of the state across the border. Such cyber attacks show a surface which is intelligent and sophisticated level that can paralyze key infrastructure in the country. It can be seen well in cases, such as hacking threat of nuclear power plant, 3.20 cyber terrorism. Especially in public institutions of the country in which there is important information of the country, advanced prevention is important because the large-scale damage is expected to such cyber attacks. Technical support is also important, but by improving the cyber security awareness and security expert knowledge through the cyber security education to the country's public institutions workers is important to raise the security level. This paper suggest education courses for the rise of the best security effect through a short-term course for the country's public institutions workers.

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.

This paper examines the ongoing research on ways to improve cybersecurity during the entire life cycle of weapons systems applied in advanced countries such as the United States, analyzes restrictions on obtaining domestic weapons systems, and presents effective security evaluation measures. By consistently performing mission-based risk assessment in the cybersecurity test and evaluation plan suitable for domestic circumstances at all stages of acquisition, important information is provided to major decision-making organizations in a timely manner to support decision-making, and to respond to identified vulnerabilities in cybersecurity. It is proposed to set the rules of engagement so that the protection measures can be verified, and a simulated invasion is proposed. In addition, the proposed cybersecurity test and evaluation system was compared with the domestic weapon system test and evaluation. Through this, the mission-based risk assessment element was grafted into the cybersecurity test and evaluation system research conducted so far to identify risks in a timely manner between acquisition projects, thereby supplementing the capability to support major decision-making.

In this paper, we propose a Leveled Micro-Degree Job Competency Certification Model that considers the level of the job based on the job defined in the NCS. There is a mismatch of manpower due to the problem of university education that cannot keep up with the rapidly changing technological environment caused by the 4th Industrial Revolution. The Nano-Degree and Micro-Degree systems designed to solve this problem are used for job competency certification of cyber security personnel. NCS sub-categorized job field is defined as Micro-Degree and detailed job by ability unit is defined as Nano-Degree, the level of the ability unit defined by level is equally applied to the Micro-Degree. And it is a system that certifies the job competency corresponding to the degree-based university academic background. By applying this system to the curriculum of Cyber Security School, Yeungnam University College, we proposed a method to configure the Nano-Degree course based on NCS duties. The method proposed in this paper can be used as a method for verifying job competency of Nano-Degree and Micro-Degree, which are recently introduced by many universities.

Today, the rapid advance of scientific technologies has brought about fundamental changes to the types and levels of terrorism while the war against the world more than one thousand small and big terrorists and crime organizations has already begun. A method highly likely to be employed by terrorist groups that are using 21st Century state of the art technology is cyber terrorism. In many instances, things that you could only imagine in reality could be made possible in the cyber space. An easy example would be to randomly alter a letter in the blood type of a terrorism subject in the health care data system, which could inflict harm to subjects and impact the overturning of the opponent's system or regime. The CIH Virus Crisis which occurred on April 26, 1999 had significant implications in various aspects. A virus program made of just a few lines by Taiwanese college students without any specific objective ended up spreading widely throughout the Internet, causing damage to 30,000 PCs in Korea and over 2 billion won in monetary damages in repairs and data recovery. Despite of such risks of cyber terrorism, a great number of Korean sites are employing loose security measures. In fact, there are many cases where a company with millions of subscribers has very slackened security systems. A nationwide preparation for cyber terrorism is called for. In this context, this research will analyze the current status of Korea's cyber security systems and its laws from a policy perspective, and move on to propose improvement strategies. This research suggests the following solutions. First, the National Cyber Security Management Act should be passed to have its effectiveness as the national cyber security management regulation. With the Act's establishment, a more efficient and proactive response to cyber security management will be made possible within a nationwide cyber security framework, and define its relationship with other related laws. The newly passed National Cyber Security Management Act will eliminate inefficiencies that are caused by functional redundancies dispersed across individual sectors in current legislation. Second, to ensure efficient nationwide cyber security management, national cyber security standards and models should be proposed; while at the same time a national cyber security management organizational structure should be established to implement national cyber security policies at each government-agencies and social-components. The National Cyber Security Center must serve as the comprehensive collection, analysis and processing point for national cyber crisis related information, oversee each government agency, and build collaborative relations with the private sector. Also, national and comprehensive response system in which both the private and public sectors participate should be set up, for advance detection and prevention of cyber crisis risks and for a consolidated and timely response using national resources in times of crisis.
