Information securiry is considered important due to the side effect generated from the expansion of information system and rapid increase of the use of internet. Nevertheless, we are getting unconscious of the importance of information security. The purpose of this research is to empirically analyze that the effects of security policies, security awareness and individual characteristics on password security effectiveness. Based on the analysis of research model using structural equation modeling technique, security policies were influencing individual characteristics and improving user's security awareness. Also individual characteristics and security awareness had positive impact on security effectiveness.

Recently, it has been pointed out that the lack of professional ethics of computer and security experts is serious as college students majoring in information security and insiders who are in charge of security work are involved in crimes after being tempted to cyber crimes. In this paper, we investigate and analyze the security ethics awareness and education situation of college students majoring in information security, and examine the security ethics education method for human resource development with personality and qualities. As the information society becomes more widespread, the ethics and occupational consciousness of the university students who are majoring in information security are recognized as lack of awareness and education about security ethics, As a solution to solve these problems, it is expected that it will be possible to nurture security experts who are aware of their vocation through the educational plan to enhance the security ethics of the information security major college students. According to the security ethics education system proposed in the paper, the security ethical consciousness of the group that received education was remarkably improved.

This study analyzed the multi-mediating effects of information security, personal information infringement, personal experience, and information security intention in the relationship between personal information protection and information security attitude. For this purpose, a survey was conducted on 221 students from G University. First, information security, personal information infringement, and information security awareness had a simple mediating effect. Second, information security, personal information infringement, personal experience, and information security consciousness had parallel multi- mediation effects. Third, personal information infringement and information security awareness had a simple mediating effect in the parallel multiple mediation state. Fourth, information security had a simple mediating effect, but it was found that there was no simple mediating effect in the parallel multiple mediation state. This study is meaningful in that it empirically compared the simple and multi-mediation effects.

최근 정보시스템의 개방성과 접근성의 확대는 조직 내 외부로부터 보안위협을 증가시키고 있다. 일반적으로 정보시스템은 패스워드를 이용하여 사용자 인증과 자료의 접근을 제한하고 있으므로 패스워드의 선택은 정보보안에 있어서 매우 중요하다. 적절한 패스워드의 선택은 정보시스템의 오 남용 방지 및 불법적인 사용자의 제한 등의 보안효과를 가져올 것이다. 본 연구의 목적은 정보를 보호하기 위한 적절한 패스워드선택을 위한 사용자의 보안행위의도에 미치는 요인을 분석하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 정보시스템 사용자의 적절한 패스워드의 선택에 영향을 미치는 핵심적인 요인으로 위험분석 방법론을 토대로 한 위험을 활용한다. 또한 위험을 사용자의 보안의식과 패스워드 관리지침을 패스워드 선택의 태도에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 보고, 사용자의 적절한 패스워드의 보안행위의도를 TRA (Theory of Reasoned Action)를 기반으로 모형을 설계하였다. 본 연구를 분석한 결과 정보자산이 위험에 관련성이 없는 반면, 정보자산을 제외한 위협, 취약성, 위험, 사용자의 보안의식, 패스워드 보안상태, 보안행위의도는 요인간에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다.

PKI(Public Key Infrastructure)-based information certification technology has some limitations to be universally applied to mobile banking services, using smart phones, since PKI is dependent on the specific kind of web browser, Internet Explorer. OTP(One Time Password) is considered to be a substitute or complementary service of PKI, but it still shows low acceptance rate. Therefore, in this research, we analyze why OTP has not been very popular, and provide useful implications of making OTP more extensively and frequently used in the mobile environment. Perceived security of OTP was set as a higher-order construct of integrity, confidentiality, authentication, and non-repudiation. Research findings show that security awareness and perceived security of OTP is positively associated, and the relationship between perceived security and trust on OTP is statistically significant. Also, trust is positively related to intention to use OTP continuously.

Universities are one of leading R&D institutes, however, their scarce security investment allows research information to leak outside. This paper proposes methods for improving security level of academic institutes to protect research information by analyzing security awareness and activities. To do that, we verified the current status of information security and awareness level by analyzing the survey which was conducted for a member of Seoul National University. As a result of statistical analysis using correlation, analysis of variance, multi regression and so on, we concluded that it is essential to improve security awareness, activities, professor's security level and management process for research labs. Thus, we suggest the following methods, security awareness and knowledge development through education, security management for research labs through provision, introduction of data protection softwares and physical control of visitors which are to be adopted to improve security level.

This study is composed of a convergence research design plan as the necessity of information security field dealing with human factors are raised. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of the aspect of information security on the cognitive process related to security policy. The research method consisted of the cross-design of the availability dimension and the culture dimension, and the information security process was measured with information security awareness, response efficacy, compliance behavioral intention, and information security behavior. As a result of the study, the dimension of availability had a significant effect on response efficacy, and it was found that the influence of the case-based condition was greater than that of the statistics-based condition. The cultural dimension had a significant effect on information security awareness, response efficacy, compliance behavioral intention, and information security behavior, and the influence of the homogeneity condition was found to be greater than that of the diversity condition. The proposed research model was verified as a multiple mediation model reconstructed with measurement variables. In addition, the discussion describes the necessity of an information security strategy in consideration of individual factors and organizational characteristics.

Recently, the importance of information security is emphasized in IT related field. The agency related to information security implements the policies to emphasize the security and protection of the privacy. However, the issue in many companies and users is that awareness of security is still poor. Therefore, in this paper, we develope the learning program for AES(advanced encryption standard) block cipher, to raise the awareness of security. Also, wish to cause interest about AES cipher because user confirms process that is encryption/decryption through program of this paper directly and prove awareness about information security.

The aim of this study to analyze the effect of person and situation on digital privacy protection behaviors. The research method design is a factorial design of volition and horizontality. The measurement variables used in the investigation are digital privacy security awareness, digital civic engagement, and digital privacy protection behavior. As a result, the volition had a significant effect on digital privacy protection behavior, and it was found that influence of the high-volition-based condition was greater than the low-volition-based condition. The horizontality had a significant effect on digital privacy security awareness, digital civic engagement, and it was found that influence of the high-horizontality-based condition was greater than the low-horizontality-based condition. In addition, the discussion explains the suitable contents of information security usability based on these research results.
