유무선 인터넷이 보편화되고 이용이 확산되면서 금융권에서는 고객의 편의성 증진을 위해 영업점의 상당한 업무를 인터넷뱅킹과 모바일뱅킹 등을 이용하여 처리할 수 있는 IT환경을 제공하고 있다. 이러한 Endpoint 환경의 변화는 점점 더 지능화되고 있는 사이버 공격 기술로 보안 위협이 증대되고 있는 실정이다. 이를 해결하기 위한 방법 중의 하나로 본 연구에서는 Reverse sandboxing 기술과 화이트리스트 기반의 보안 기술이 내장된 커널 수준의 TSX(Trusted Security Extension)기술을 통하여 맬웨어가 감염된 상태에서도 안전하게 전자금융거래를 할 수 있는 Endpoint 환경을 제공한다.

차세대 무선 통신 기술인 Wi-Fi는 이동통신사를 거치지 않고 근처의 AP(Access Point)를 통하여 여러 컨텐츠 제공서버에 접근한다. 그에 따라 사용자는 컨텐츠 제공서버로 위장한 피싱이나, 인증되지 않은 사이트를 통해 악성코드 배포, 사용자 정보유출등과 같은 취약점에 노출되고, 컨텐츠 제공 서버 또한 타인으로 위장한 위장공격등과 같은 취약점에 노출된다. 본 논문에서는 Wi-Fi 환경 내에서 사용자 단말기와 컨텐츠 제공서버간의 상호 인증 방안을 모색하고, 모바일 환경의 특성을 고려한 상호 인증 방안을 제안한다.

They are rapidly evolving malicious attacks on smart devices, and to timely protect the smart devices from these attacks has become a very important issue. In particular, smishing attack has emerged as one of the most important threats on the smartphone. In this paper, we propose the cloud service that can fundamentally protect the user from the risk of smishing attack. The proposed scheme provides cloud messaging service that can filter text messages including URLs in the user's smart device, view and manage them through a virtual machine provided by a cloud server. The existing techniques for preventing smshing attacks protect only malicious code of a known pattern and there is the possibility of error such as FP(False Positive) or FN(False Negative). However, since the proposed method automatically filters all text messages including URLs, storing, viewing, and managing them in their own storage space on the cloud server, it can completely block the installation of malwares(malicious codes) on the user's smart device through smishing attacks.

In recent years, ransomware attacks have become more organized and specialized, with the sophistication of attacks targeting specific individuals or organizations using tactics such as social engineering, spear phishing, and even machine learning, some operating as business models. In order to effectively respond to this, various researches and solutions are being developed and operated to detect and prevent attacks before they cause serious damage. In particular, honeypots can be used to minimize the risk of attack on IT systems and networks, as well as act as an early warning and advanced security monitoring tool, but in cases where ransomware does not have priority access to the decoy file, or bypasses it completely. has a disadvantage that effective ransomware response is limited. In this paper, this honeypot is optimized for the user environment to create a reliable real-time dynamic honeypot file, minimizing the possibility of an attacker bypassing the honeypot, and increasing the detection rate by preventing the attacker from recognizing that it is a honeypot file. To this end, four models, including a basic data collection model for dynamic honeypot generation, were designed (basic data collection model / user-defined model / sample statistical model / experience accumulation model), and their validity was verified.

Since 2009 the number of users of smart phones and tablet PC is growing exponentially. In particular Apple's iOS and Google's Android OS are the heart of this remarkable growth, most of smart phone and tablet PC are designed to operate based on these two OS. Such increasing use of smart devices has led to changes in the social environment that allows, without the constraints of time and place. However, such development does not supply only ease to do something, even compared to past, financial fraud and information leakage are easier than before by variety of new types of attack for example phishing, pharming, smishing and qshing. So according to this paper, analyzes for smishing attack, propose a countermeasure system of the technical way and proved its higher performance compare to the existing method.

The One-Time Password(OTP) Generator is used as a multi-factor authentication method to ensure secure transaction during e-Financial transaction in the bank and securities company. The OTP based e-Financial Transaction Verification Protocol ensures secure e-financial transaction through confirming the user's identity using OTP authentication information and counters not only Man-in-the-Browser(MITB) attacks but also memory hacking attacks. However, it is possible to generate correct OTPs due to potential of stealing sensitive information of the OTP generator through intelligent phishing, pharming, social engineering attacks. Therefore, it needs another scheme to prevent from above threats, and this paper proposes advanced scheme using Physical Unclonable Functions(PUFs) to solve these problems. First, it is impossible to generate the same OTP values because of the hysically unclonable features of PUFs. In addition, it is impossible to clone OTP generator with hardware techniques. Consequently, the proposed protocol provides stronger and more robust authentication protocol than existing one by adding PUFs in the OTP generator.

The online banking service handles a banking business over the internet, it is necessary to ensure that all financial transactions are processed securely. So, there are various authentication technique for e-banking service : a certificate, a personal identification number(PIN), a security card and a one-time password(OTP). Especially, the security card is most important means including secret information. If the secret information of card is leaked, it means not only loss of security but also easy to attack because security card is a difficult method to get. In this paper, we propose that a multi-channel security card saves an secret information in distributed channel. Proposed multi-channel security card reduces vulnerability of the exposed and has a function to prevent phishing attacks through decreasing the amount of information displayed and generating secret number randomly.

Recently, various cyber threats such as Ransomware and APT attack are increasing by e-mail. The characteristic of such an attack is that it is important to take administrative measures by improving personal perception of security because it bypasses technological measures such as past pattern-based detection The purpose of this study is to investigate the human factors of employees who are vulnerable to spam mail attacks through field experiments and to establish future improvement plans. As a result of sending 7times spam mails to employees of a company and analyzing training report, It was confirmed that factors such as the number of training and the recipient 's gender, age, and workplace were related to the reading rate. Based on the results of this analysis, we suggest ways to improve the training and to improve the ability of each organization to carry out effective simulation training and improve the ability to respond to spam mail by awareness improvement.

Accessing unauthorized rogue APs in WiFi environments is a very dangerous behavior which may lead WiFi users to be exposed to the various cyber attacks such as sniffing, phishing, and pharming attacks. Therefore, prompt and precise detection of rogue APs and properly alarming to the corresponding users has become one of most essential requirements for the WiFi security. This paper proposes a new rogue AP detection method which is mainly using the installation information of authorized APs and the DHCP snooping information of the corresponding switches. The proposed method detects rogue APs promptly and precisely, and notify in realtime to the corresponding users. Since the proposed method is simple and does not require any special devices, it is very cost-effective comparing to the wireless intrusion prevention systems which are normally based on a number of detection sensors and servers. And it is highly precise and prompt in rogue AP detection and flexible in deployment comparing to the existing rogue AP detection methods based on the timing information, location information, and white list information.

There are various cyber attacks on business PCs. In order to reduce the threat of PC security, we are preventing the vulnerability from being diagnosed beforehand. However, this guideline is difficult to cope with because the domestic vulnerability guide does not update the diagnostic items. In this paper, we examine the cyber infringement cases of PCs and the diagnostic items of foreign technical vulnerabilities in order to cope with security threats. In addition, an improved guide is provided by comparing the differences in the diagnostic items of technical vulnerability from abroad and domestic. Through 41 proposed technical vulnerability improvement items, it was found that various security threats can be coped with. Currently, it is mainly able to respond to only known vulnerabilities, but we hope that applying this guideline will reduce unknown security threats.
