This paper analyzes the attack method of pastejacking and proposes a clip toaster that can effectively defend it. When programming, developers often copy and paste code from GitHub, Stack Overflow, or blogs. Pastejacking is an attack that injects malicious data into the clipboard when a user copies code posted on the web, resulting in security threats by executing malicious commands that the user does not intend or by inserting dangerous code snippets into the software. In this paper, we propose clip toaster to visualize and alertusers of threats to defend pastejacking that threatens the security of the developer's terminal and program code. Clip Toaster can visualize security threat notifications and effectively detect and respond to attacks without interfering with user actions.

연합학습은 클라이언트가 중앙 서버에 원본 데이터를 주지 않고도 학습할 수 있도록 설계된 분산된 머신러닝 방법이다. 그러나 클라이언트와 중앙 서버 사이에 모델 업데이트 정보를 공유한다는 점에서 여전히 추론 공격(Inference Attack)과 오염 공격(Poisoning Attack)의 위험에 노출되어 있다. 이러한 공격을 방어하기 위해 연합학습에 차분프라이버시(Differential Privacy)를 적용하는 방안이 연구되고 있다. 차분 프라이버시는 데이터에 노이즈를 추가하여 민감한 정보를 보호하면서도 유의미한 통계적 정보 쿼리는 공유할 수 있도록 하는 기법으로, 노이즈를 추가하는 위치에 따라 전역적 차분프라이버시(Global Differential Privacy)와 국소적 차분 프라이버시(Local Differential Privacy)로 나뉜다. 이에 본 논문에서는 차분 프라이버시를 적용한 연합학습의 최신 연구 동향을 전역적 차분 프라이버시를 적용한 방향과 국소적 차분 프라이버시를 적용한 방향으로 나누어 검토한다. 또한 이를 세분화하여 차분 프라이버시를 발전시킨 방식인 적응형 차분 프라이버시(Adaptive Differential Privacy)와 개인화된 차분 프라이버시(Personalized Differential Privacy)를 응용하여 연합학습에 적용한 방식들에 대하여 특징과 장점 및 한계점을 분석하고 향후 연구방향을 제안한다.

In modern society, the development of Information and Communication Technology has given people a lot of opportunities. But on the other side cyber attack also gives enormous damage to people. Recently Korea has become the target of cyber attack. The threat of it is growing. Especially North Korea has committed hostile actions against South Korea. North Korea has recently attacked the computer networks of South Korea's important national facilities. The types of North Korea's cyber attacks include the followings. First, if we see it with the viewpoint of software, it tries to destroy or control the Internet, infects the networks with viruses, worms, Trojan Horse and Distributed Denial of Service. I suggest the following to solve the problem. First, South Korea should unify the organizations to respond to the attacks of North Korea, as North Korea has a unified organization for the cyber attack. Second, they should think about the establishment of "Cyber Terrorism Prevention Act" to systematically respond to the software attacks.

It is impossible to apply the routing protocol in the wired environment because MANET consists of only mobile nodes. Therefore, routing protocols considered these characteristics are required. In particular, if malicious nodes are not excluded in the routing phase, network performance will be greatly reduced. In this paper, we propose intrusion detection technique based on region to improve routing performance. In the proposed technique, the whole network is divided into certain areas, and then attack detection within the area using area management node is performed. It is a proposed method that can detect attack nodes in the path through cooperation with each other by using completion message received from member nodes. It also applied a method that all nodes participating in the network can share the attack node information by storing the detected attack node and sharing. The performance evaluation of the proposed technique was compared with the existing security routing techniques through the experiments and the superior performance of the proposed technique was confirmed.

Network attack analysis and visualization methods using network traffic session data detect network anomalies by visualizing the sender's and receiver's IP addresses and the relationship between them. The traffic flow is a critical feature in detecting anomalies, but simply visualizing the source and destination IP addresses symmetrically from up-down or left-right would become a problematic factor for the analysis. Also, there is a risk of losing timely security situation when designing a visualization interface without considering the temporal characteristics of time-series traffic sessions. In this paper, we propose a visualization interface and analysis method that visualizes time-series traffic data by using the radial axis, divide IP addresses into network and host portions which then projects on the cylindrical coordinate system that could effectively monitor network attacks. The proposed method has the advantage of intuitively recognizing network attacks and identifying attack activity over time.

Wireless Ad hoc Network is threatened from many types of attacks because of its open structure, dynamic topology and the absence of infrastructure. Attacks by malicious nodes inside the network destroy communication path and discard packet. The damage is quite large and detecting attacks are difficult. In this paper, we proposed attack detection technique using secure authentication infrastructure for efficient detection and prevention of internal attack nodes. Cluster structure is used in the proposed method so that each nodes act as a certificate authority and the public key is issued in cluster head through trust evaluation of nodes. Symmetric Key is shared for integrity of data between the nodes and the structure which adds authentication message to the RREQ packet is used. ns-2 simulator is used to evaluate performance of proposed method and excellent performance can be performed through the experiment.

It is very difficult to completely block the DDoS attack, which paralyzes services by depleting resources or occupying the network bandwidth by transmitting a vast amount of traffic to the specific website or server from normal users' PCs that have been already infected by an outside attacker. In order to defense or endure the DDoS attack, we usually use various solutions such as IDS (Intrusion Detection System), IPS (Intrusion Prevention System), ITS (Intrusion Tolerance System), FW (Firewall), and the dedicated security equipment against DDoS attack. However, diverse types of security appliances cause the cost problem, besides, the full function of the equipments are not performed well owing to the unproper setting without considering connectivity among systems. In this paper, we present the effective connectivity of security equipments and countermeasure methodology against DDoS attack. In practice, it is approved by experimentation that this designed methdology is better than existing network structure in the efficiency of block and endurance. Therefore, we would like to propose the effective security control measures responding and enduring against discriminated DDoS attacks through this research.

Mobile devices provide various services through payment and authentication by inputting important information such as passwords on the screen with the virtual keypads. In order to infer the password inputted by the user, the attacker captures the user's touch location information. The attacker is able to infer the password by using the location information or to obtain password information by peeping with Google Glass or Shoulder Surfing Attack. As existing secure keypads place the same letters in a set order except for few keys, considering handy input, they are vulnerable to attacks from Google Glass and Shoulder Surfing Attack. Secure keypads are able to improve security by rearranging various shapes and locations. In this paper, we propose secure keypads that generates 13 different shapes and sizes of Tetris and arranges keypads to be attached one another. Since the keypad arranges different shapes and sizes like the game, Tetris, for the virtual keypad to be different, it is difficult to infer the inputted password because of changes in size even though the attacker knows the touch location information.

The blockchain is a technique for managing transaction data in distributed computing manner without the involvement of central trust authority. The blockchain has been used in various area such as manufacturing, culture, and public as well as finance because of its advantage of the security, efficiency and applicability. In the blockchain, it was considered safe against 51% attack because the adversary could not have more than 50% hash power. However, there have been cases caused by large-scale computing attacks such as 51% and selfish mining attack, and the frequency of these attacks is increasing. In addition, since the development of quantum computers can hold exponentially more information than their classical computer, it faces a new type of threat using quantum algorithms. In this paper, we perform the security analysis of blockchain attacks composing the large computing capabilities including quantum computing attacks. Finally, we suggest the technologies and future direction of the blockchain development in order to be safe against large-scale computing attacks.

The speed of technological development is increasing, and high-performance digital devices are spreading. Wired digital devices such as PCs have been optimized for existing wired environments, but needs are shifting away from the constraints of space and space to smart work that enables efficient work anywhere and anytime. The Smart Work System security design is needed to secure integrity and availability in the face of various security threats including physical threats (lost, stolen, and damaged terminals), technical threats (data theft, DoS: denial of service), and unauthorized access outside the wired environment. In this study, we analyzed smart work network systems, wired / wireless link systems, and digital smart devices. We also studied cyber-attack analysis and cybersecurity design methods for a Smart Work wired system and a future wireless system. This study will be used as basic data for building a secure Smart Work system.
