As digital infrastructure increases connections and convergence progress rapidly in all areas, and it is most important to ensure safety from cyber infringement or hacking to continue national growth. Accordingly, it examines the obstacles to cyber threat information sharing, which is the basis for responding to cyber infringement, and suggests ways to improve efficiency. First of all, information sharing is divided into three areas: the government, cyber security companies, small and medium-sized enterprises and individuals and the requirements are checked from their respective positions. We will supplement this and explore ways to strengthen cybersecurity and provide economic benefits to each other. Therefore, national and public organizations will propose policies to create an cybersecurity industry ecosystem with a virtuous cycle that leads to diversification of cyber threat information sources, strengthening cybersecurity for general companies and individuals, and creating demand for the cybersecurity industry. The results of the study are expected to help establish policies to strengthen national cybersecurity.

IP cameras allow users to view live video regardless of their location. Due to this advantage, they are used in homes to monitor infants, pets, and the elderly, and they are widely utilized in companies for physical security control and monitoring of secure areas, such as data centers and warehouses. However, IP cameras that lack appropriate security measures can be eavesdropped on by malicious attackers. This study demonstrates that hacking attacks can be executed by exploiting various security vulnerabilities in IP cameras, including brute force attacks. Accordingly, we propose an architecture that addresses these vulnerabilities, suggesting measures to enhance the security of IP cameras. Also, we shows that the proposed method can safely and effectively provide video information encryption and user authentication for IP cameras through security verification and availability evaluation.

Despite the increasing hacking threats and security threats as IT technology advances and many companies adopt security solutions, cyberattacks and threats still persist for years. APT attack is a technique of selecting a specific target and continuing to attack. The threat of an APT attack uses all possible means through the electronic network to perform APT for years. Zero-day attacks, malicious code distribution, and social engineering techniques are performed, and some of them directly invade companies. These techniques have been in effect since 2000, and are similarly used in voice phishing, especially for social engineering techniques. Therefore, it is necessary to study countermeasures against APT attacks. This study analyzes the attack cases of Korean-based APT groups in Korea and suggests the correct method of using intelligence to analyze APT attack groups.

With the spread of Personal Computers(PC) in the 1980's, many people started to deal businesses with PC. From late 1990's, the Internet age with PC have started and many people have showed keen interest in cyber-space and now they are utilizing it. Since 2000's the use of cyber-space have skyrocketed and it caused significant changes to humans' life. There was a huge prosperity to us but the new kind of crime, cyber-crime, was raised. Unlike past physical type of crimes, those cyber-crimes take place in the cyber-space and they have special features of non-facing, anonymity, specialty, technologic, repetition, continuation. Those cyber-crimes are continually growing since 2003 and in 2010 it almost doubled compared to 2003. General cyber-crimes like phishing-scam pornography circulation was most of them and notably perpetrators of them are younger generation. Recently cyber-crimes are showing the trend of advancing more and more and cyber-bullying, fraud like phishing scam are on the rise. The police are responding by making 'Cyber Terror Response Center', but it does not work effectively with the problems of breakup of prevention and investigation unit, procedure of investigation and the system itself. So, I suggest practical use of private security to remedy our police's weakness and to prevent cyber-crimes. Preventing solutions of cyber-crime with private security are physical defense of large-scale servers and vital computers, building of Back-up system to prevent vital data loss, and building of cyber-crime preventing system combining software and hardware.

As the 'hyper-connected society' has emerged through the 'Fourth Industrial Revolution, public interests as well as social dangers have increased. Above all, the risk of infringement of information, including confidential personal information, is dramatically increasing. As the hyper-connected society has been realized, even if only one of the internet devices is hacked, there would be a danger that the ripple effect of such a hacking spreads to the whole network. Therefore, the necessity and importance of information security, including cybersecurity, has been increasing. In other words, the stability of cyberspace and internet space is becoming more important. As a result, the Korean government is seeking to build a legal system related to information security, which would be able to cope with the information infringement problem in the hyper-connected society. However, it seems that the government is still struggling with the direction of building such a legal system. In this context, a comparative review examining the legal systems of advanced foreign countries will provide meaningful implications as to what kinds of legal policies we should devise and implement for information security. In particular, the U.S. legislative act that actively responds to the cybersecurity violations is worthy of reference. For this reason, this article systematically analyzes the current status of the U.S. cybersecurity laws. Especially, this article focuses on the "Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act of 2015"(hereinafter "CISA"), that was recently enacted by the U.S. congress. The CISA prescribes the systemic and detailed information-sharing between national and private entities. The CISA, that actively promotes information-sharing, is full of suggestions for us, in that information-sharing is an effective way to properly realize information security in today's hyper-connected society.
