The Future Battlefield includes the main areas of modern warfare, including the ground, sea, and air, as well as cyberspace and space. Cyberspace consists of computers, wired and wireless networks, and spans the ground, sea, air, and space domains. Cyber warfare takes place in cyberspace, so it is not easy for people without expertise in cyber to recognize the cyber situation. Therefore, training personnel with professional knowledge and skills in cyber is paramount in preparation for cyber warfare. In particular, the results of cyber warfare will vary greatly depending on the ability of cyber combatants to carry it out, the performance of cyber systems, and the proficiency of cyber warfare procedures. The South Korean military has power to respond to cyber warfare at various levels, centering on the Cyber Operations Command, but there is a limit to defending all the rapidly expanding cyberspace. In this paper, to overcome these limitations, we looked at the changes in Germany's cyber warfare response policy. Based on them, the organization structure, weapon system, and education and training system of future Korean military cyber forces are presented separately.

The purpose of this paper is to ccompare and analyze North Korean cyber attacks and our responses by government, from the Roh Moo-hyun administration to the Moon Jae-in administration. The current conflict of interests on the Korean peninsula, such as the United States, China, and Russia, is leading to a conflict for the leadership of a new world order in cyberspace. Cyber attacks are accelerating and threats are rising. Cyber threats exhibit several characteristics. Above all, it is difficult to identify or track the subject of the threat. Also, with the development of information and communication technology, attack technology has become more intelligent, and it is not easy to prepare a means to respond. Therefore, it is necessary to improve continuous and preemptive response capacity for national cybersecurity, and to establish governance among various actors, such as international cooperation between countries or private experts.

Recently, due to the open architecture of the internet and wide spread of internet users, the cyber terror threatens to the network\`s weak point are tending grow. Until now, information security solutions are passive on security host and particular security system. This passive information security solution is weak from the attacks through the networks connected worldwide internet systems, and has limitation on the defense against cyber terror attacks. Therefore, network level integrated security function must be provided. In this paper, we consider technology limitations on the information security problems and its environment. Then we present the architecture and functions of policy-based information security services for network level active information security function. This paper also includes design of target system, which provide information security services. Finally, we discuss network level system deployment direction and discuss with Network Security Simulation.

Speedy development has been witnessed in communication technologies and the adoption of the Internet across the world. Information dissemination is the primary goal of these technologies. One of the rapidly developing nations in the Middle East is Saudi Arabia, where the use of communication technologies, including mobile and Internet, has drastically risen in recent times. These advancements are relatively new to the region when contrasted to developed nations. Thus, offenses arising from the adoption of these technologies may be new to Saudi Arabians. This study examines cyber security awareness among Saudi Arabian citizens in distinct settings. A comparison is made between the cybersecurity policy guidelines adopted in Saudi Arabia and three other nations. This review will explore distinct essential elements and approaches to mitigating cybercrimes in the United States, Singapore, and India. Following an analysis of the current cybersecurity framework in Saudi Arabia, suggestions for improvement are determined from the overall findings. A key objective is enhancing the nationwide focus on efficient safety and security systems. While the participants display a clear knowledge of IT, the surveyed literature shows limited awareness of the risks related to cyber security practices and the role of government in promoting data safety across the Internet. As the findings indicate, proper frameworks regarding cyber security need to be considered to ensure that associated threats are mitigated as Saudi Arabia aspires to become an efficient smart nation.

As ICT is becoming a major social infrastructure, the need to strengthen cyber capabilities are emerging. In the major advanced countries including the United States, has a continuing interest in strengthening cyber capabilities and has studied in enhancements of cyber capabilities. The cyber capability assessment is necessary in order to determine the current level of the country, establish policy directions and legislations. The selection of criteria has very important meaning to suggest future policy direction as well as an objective assessment of cybersecurity capabilities. But there are variable criteria for national cyber capabilities assessment such as strategy, legislation, technology, society and culture, and human resources. In this paper we perform the analysis of criteria for the other country's cybersecurity assessments including the U.S. and Europe. And we proposed the criteria for the national cybersecurity assessment reflecting the our country's characteristics.

In recent years, there have been frequent incidents of invasion of national defense networks by insiders. This trend can be said to disprove that the physical network separation policy currently applied by the Korea Ministry of National Defense can no longer guarantee military cyber security. Therefore, stronger cybersecurity measures are needed. In this regard, Zero Trust with a philosophy of never trusting and always verifying is emerging as a new alternative security paradigm. This paper analyzes the zero trust establishment trends currently being pursued by the US Department of Defense, and based on the implications derived from this, proposes a zero trust establishment plan tailored to the Korean military. The zero trust establishment plan tailored to the Korean military proposed in this paper includes a zero trust establishment strategy, a plan to organize a dedicated organization and secure budget, and a plan to secure zero trust establishment technology. Compared to cyber security based on the existing physical network separation policy, it has several advantages in terms of cyber security.

The occurrence of cyber crime is on the rise every year, and the security control center, which should play a crucial role in monitoring and early response against the cyber attacks targeting various information systems, its importance has increased accordingly. Every endeavors to prevent cyber attacks is being attempted by information security personnel of government and financial sector's security control center, threat response Center, cyber terror response center, Cert Team, SOC(Security Operator Center) and else. The ordinary method to monitor cyber attacks consists of utilizing the security system or the network security device. It is anticipated, however, to be insufficient since this is simply one dimensional way of monitoring them based on signatures. There has been considerable improvement of the security control system and researchers also have conducted a number of studies on monitoring methods to prevent threats to security. In accordance with the environment changes from ESM to SIEM, the security control system is able to be provided with more input data as well as generate the correlation analysis which integrates the processed data, by extraction and parsing, into the potential scenarios of attack or threat. This article shows case studies how to detect the threat to security in effective ways, from the initial phase of the security control system to current SIEM circumstances. Furthermore, scenarios based security control systems rather than simple monitoring is introduced, and finally methods of producing the correlation analysis and its verification methods are presented. It is expected that this result contributes to the development of cyber attack monitoring system in other security centers.

This Study aims to propose a new information security governance model design method for streamlining security governance at national strategic level. The research method of this study is to diagnose our operational experience and to derive a new model design method. In the meantime, national information security activities were perceived to be focused on knowledge transfer, and motivation of activities and securing of executive power were weak. As a result, security blind spots and frequent occurrence of large security incidents have become unresolved challenges. National cyber security governance should be grouped together as a whole systematically from the upper policy to the lower level of performance under the responsibility of the national leader. Based on this approach, this study presented the comprehensive framework of Korean security governance model and embodied it into four architectural designs such as vision, goal, process, and performance, thus deriving the foundation for future national governance model design. Further research is needed to diagnose problems in life cycle flow, security policies based on environmental changes, and new frameworks in which all subjects participate.
