The Cyber space of the ROK Army is constantly threatened by enemy. In order to reponse to such cyber treats, vulnerabilities of information assets of the ROK Army should be identified and eliminated early. However, the ROK Army currently lacks systematic management of vulnerabilities. Therefore, this paper investigates trends of each country's vulnerability management and the actual situation of the management of the vulnerabilities in the ROK Army, and suggests ways of linking vulnerability database and the ROK Army information asset management system for effective vulnerability management of the ROK Army information assets.

비대면 사회 확산에 따라 디지털 콘텐츠 등 온라인상으로 거래가 관리되는 디지털 자산의 거래가 증가하고 있다. 영상 및 이미지 등 디지털 자산의 경우 창작자가 자산에 대한 충분한 대가를 받지 못하고 불법 거래 내역에 대한 파악이 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 NFT적용을 통한 효율적 디지털 자산 관리를 위하여 신뢰성과 보안을 강화한 블록체인 합의알고리즘을 연구하고 성능평가를 통하여 기존 합의알고리즘 대비 우수성을 증명하였다.

Cyberattack technology is evolving to an unpredictable degree, and it is a situation that can happen 'at any time' rather than 'someday'. Infrastructure that is becoming hyper-connected and global due to cloud computing and the Internet of Things is an environment where cyberattacks can be more damaging than ever, and cyberattacks are still ongoing. Even if damage occurs due to external influences such as cyberattacks or natural disasters, intelligent self-recovery must evolve from a cyber resilience perspective to minimize downtime of cyber assets (OS, WEB, WAS, DB). In this paper, we propose an intelligent self-recovery technology to ensure sustainable cyber resilience when cyber assets fail to function properly due to a cyberattack. The original and updated history of cyber assets is managed in real-time using timeslot design and snapshot backup technology. It is necessary to secure technology that can automatically detect damage situations in conjunction with a commercialized file integrity monitoring program and minimize downtime of cyber assets by analyzing the correlation of backup data to damaged files on an intelligent basis to self-recover to an optimal state. In the future, we plan to research a pilot system that applies the unique functions of self-recovery technology and an operating model that can learn and analyze self-recovery strategies appropriate for cyber assets in damaged states.

In recent years, the development of defense technology has become digital with the introduction of advanced assets such as drones equipped with artificial intelligence. These assets are integrated with modern information technologies such as industrial IoT, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing to promote innovation in the defense domain. However, the convergence of the technology is increasing the possibility of transfer of cyber threats, which is emerging as a problem of increasing the vulnerability of defense assets. While the current cybersecurity methodologies focus on the vulnerability of a single asset, interworking of various military assets is necessary to perform the mission. Therefore, this paper recognizes these problems and presents a mission-based asset management and evaluation methodology. It aims to strengthen cyber security in the defense sector by identifying assets that are important for mission execution and analyzing vulnerabilities in terms of cyber security. In this paper, we propose a method of classifying mission dependencies through linkage analysis between functions and assets to perform a mission, and identifying and classifying assets that affect the mission. In addition, a case study of identifying key assets was conducted through an attack scenario.

기업들의 생산 공정이 세분화되면서 하나의 디지털 기기는 여러 단계의 공급망을 통해 원자력 발전소 외부에서 제작된 후 공급된 기기들과 소프트웨어의 조합으로 최종 완성품이 제작된다. 이러한 공정 과정을 거치는 다양한 나라, 회사에서 제작된 수많은 부품들과 소프트웨어의 조합은 어느 하나의 단계에서 발생한 의도되거나 의도되지 않은 결함 또는 사이버 위험을 포함한 최종제품이 될 가능성을 가지고 있으며 실제로 공급망을 위협하는 사례가 발생하기도 하였다. 이러한 결과로 공급망을 통한 사이버공격의 보안 위험 사례를 관리하는 것이 디지털화가 급격하게 진행되고 있는 원자력발전소와 같은 주요기반시설의 안전과 보안을 유지하는데 고려해야하는 중요한 요소가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 공급망을 통한 사이버보안 위험 사례와, 원자력발전소 디지털 자산 공급망 위험관리를 위한 해외 사례를 살펴보고자 한다.

Domestic nuclear power plants operate under the establishment of the "Information System Security Regulations" in accordance with the Nuclear Safety Act, introducing and implementing a cybersecurity system that encompasses organizational structure as well as technical, operational, and managerial security measures for assets. Despite attempts such as phased approaches and alternative measures for physical protection systems, the reduction in managed items has not been achieved, leading to an increased burden on security capabilities due to limited manpower at the site. In the main text, an analysis is conducted on Type A1 assets performing nuclear safety functions using Maintenance Rules (MR) and EPRI Technical Assessment Methodology (TAM) from both a maintenance perspective and considering device characteristics. Through this analysis, approaches to re-evaluate the impact of cyber intrusions on asset functionality are proposed.

Our military's cyberspace is under constant threat from the enemy. These cyber threats are targeted at the information service assets held by the military, and securing the security of the organization's information service assets is critical. However, since Information assets can not be 100% selt-sufficient in any organization as well as the military, acquisition of information assets by the supply chain is an inevitable. Therefor, after reviewing supply chain protection measures to secure the safety of the military supply chain, we proposed a method for securing supply chain companies through the citation of partnership based on the validated trust model.

수많은 정보자산들이 네트워크를 통해 연결된 환경에서 사이버 공격으로부터 정보자산들을 효과적으로 방어하기 위한 기본적인 수단으로 네트워크 침입탐지 시스템과 취약점 분석 시스템이 활용되고 있다. 그러나 네트워크 보안을 위해 개별적으로 운용되고 있는 네트워크 침입탐지 시스템과 취약점 분석 시스템이 보안관리 측면에서 오히려 보안 운용자의 부담을 가중시키는 요인으로 작용하고 있는 것이 현실이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 네트워크 보안 관리에 필수적인 정보 요소인 네트워크 자산, 취약점 및 위협이 갖는 의미와 상관성을 분석하고, 네트워크 침입탐지 시스템과 취약점 분석 시스템이 제공하는 정보들을 상호 연동하여 네트워크 침입탐지 시스템이 탐지하는 불필요한 경보정보의 양을 대폭 줄여 Log관리를 최적화할 수 있는 시스템을 구축하기 위한 설계방법을 제시하였다.

Cyber Mission Impact Assessment is one of the essential tasks which many militaries and industrial major companies should perform to effectively achieve their mission. The unexpected damage to an organization's assets results in damage to the whole system's performance of the organizations. In order to minimize the damage, it is necessary to quantify the available capacity of the mission, which can be achieved only with the remaining assets, and to immediately prepare a new second best plan in a moment. We therefore need to estimate the exact cyber attack's impact to the mission when the unwanted damage occurs by modeling the relationship between the assets and the missions. In this paper, we propose a new model which deals with the dependencies between assets and missions for obtaining the exact impact of a cyber attack. The proposed model distinguishes task management from asset management for an efficient process, and it is implemented to be optimized using a vectorized operation for parallel processing and using a buffer to reduce the computation time.
