The "Risk management" and "Security monitoring" activities for cyber security are deeply correlated in that they prepare for future security threats and minimize security incidents. In addition, it is effective to apply a pattern model that visually demonstrates to an administrator the threat to that information asset in both the risk management and the security system areas. Validated pattern models have long-standing "control chart" models in the traditional quality control sector, but lack the use of information systems in cyber risk management and security systems. In this paper, a cyber Security Risk Monitoring (SRM) system that integrates risk management and a security system was designed. The SRM presents a strategy for applying 'security control' using the pattern of 'control charts'. The security measures were integrated with the existing set of standardized security measures, ISMS, NIST SP 800-53 and CC. Using this information, we analyzed the warning trends of the cyber crisis in Korea for four years from 2014 to 2018 and this enables us to establish more flexible security measures in the future.

The continuous information technology and telecommunication (ICT) developments inspire several Saudi Arabia citizens to transact and interact online. However, when using online platforms, several people are likely to lose their personal information to cybercriminals. In the survey, 553 Saudi Arabia citizens and 103 information technology (IT) specialists confirm the expansion of digital economy and the need for smart cities with various services, including e-commerce and solid cyber security. 96.6% of the participants believe Saudi Arabia is digitalizing its economy; yet, 33.3% of the participants believe that residents are uninformed about living and operating in smart cities. Several people (47.29%) with medium internet speed are more aware about smart cities than those with fastest internet speed (34%). Besides, online transactions via credit cards subjected 55.5% of the participants to privacy and security issues. These findings validate the essence of cyber security awareness programs among Saudi Arabia citizens and IT professionals to boost public trust and acceptance of cybersecurity frameworks.

Ensuring the security of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) is paramount to safeguarding the reliability and safety of critical infrastructure. This paper addresses the significant threat posed by reconnaissance attacks on SCADA/ICS networks and presents an innovative methodology for enhancing their protection. The proposed approach strategically employs imbalance dataset handling techniques, ensemble methods, and feature engineering to enhance the resilience of SCADA/ICS systems. Experimentation and analysis demonstrate the compelling efficacy of our strategy, as evidenced by excellent model performance characterized by good precision, recall, and a commendably low false negative (FN). The practical utility of our approach is underscored through the evaluation of real-world SCADA/ICS datasets, showcasing superior performance compared to existing methods in a comparative analysis. Moreover, the integration of feature augmentation is revealed to significantly enhance detection capabilities. This research contributes to advancing the security posture of SCADA/ICS environments, addressing a critical imperative in the face of evolving cyber threats.

컴퓨터망 보안을 위해서는 취약점의 빠른 발견과 그에 따르는 신속한 조치가 요구된다. 이를 위해 컴퓨터망 여러 곳에서 사용자가 원하는 보안 정보를 수집, 분석하고 수집된 보안 정보들을 효과적으로 보여주는 통합적인 보안 관리를 제공하는 모니터링 방식이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 보안 관리를 위한 동적 모니터링 형식 모델을 제시한다. 동적 모니터링은 상태 전이에 의한 시스템 상태, 사용자와의 상호작용, 시각 및 모니터링 객체의 동적 활성화를 이용하여 컴퓨터망 통합 보안 관리를 제공한다. 계속적으로 변하는 보안 정보, 컴퓨터망 관리자의 관심점과 모니터링 레벨의 변화를 즉각적으로 반영함으로써 관리자에게 컴퓨터망 관리의 정확성, 효율성 그리고 편의성을 제공한다. 모니터링 시스템을 형식적으로 모델링하여 여러 모니터링 응용프로그램의 개발이 가능한 모니터링 플랫폼으로 발전시킬 수 있다. Abstract It is highly required to quickly detect the vulnerability of a computer network system and an appropriate action toward it should be followed as soon as possible for its security. It leads us to the need of a monitoring schema that can provide an integrated security management with carefully selected and analysed data through the computer network for its users. This paper presents a formal model of dynamic monitoring for security management. It provides the comprehensive security management using continuously changing security information, user interactions and dynamic activation of visual and monitoring objects. It enables system security officers to manage computer systems accurately, efficiently and conveniently by reflecting the state transition and the transformation of concerns and a monitoring level of system security officers immediately. This model can be used as the basis of a monitoring platform.

Ad hoc network is self-organized network powered by battery. The reliability of virtual user identification and channel security are reduced when SNR is low due to limited user energy. In order to solve this problem, a joint virtual user identification and channel security en/decoding method is proposed in this paper. Transmitter-receiver-based virtual user identification code is generated by executing XOR operation between orthogonal address code of transmitter and pseudo random address code of receiver and encrypted by channel security code to acquire orthogonal random security sequence so as to improve channel security. In order to spread spectrum as well as improve transmission efficiency, data packet is divided into 6-bit symbols, each symbol is mapped with an orthogonal random security sequence. Subspace-based method is adopted by receiver to process received signal firstly, and then a judgment model is established to identify virtual users according to the previous processing results. Simulation results indicate that the proposed method obtains 1.6dB E_b/N₀ gains compared with reference methods when miss alarm rate reaches 10^-3.

With the rapid development of Internet of Things sensor devices and big data processing techniques, Internet of Things sensor-based information systems have been applied in various industries. Depending on the industry in which the information systems are applied, the accuracy of the information derived can affect the industry's efficiency and safety. Therefore, security techniques that protect sensing data from security attacks and enable information systems to derive accurate information are essential. In this paper, we examine security threats targeting each processing step of an Internet of Things sensor-based information system and propose security mechanisms for each security threat. Furthermore, we present an Internet of Things sensor-based information system structure that is robust to security attacks by integrating the proposed security mechanisms. In the proposed system, by applying lightweight security techniques such as a lightweight encryption algorithm and obfuscation-based data validation, security can be secured with minimal processing delay even in low-power and low-performance IoT sensor devices. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed system by implementing and performance evaluating each security mechanism.
