The recent trend of cyber attack threat is mainly APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) attack. This attack is a combination of hacking techniques to try to steal important information assets of a corporation or individual, and social engineering hacking techniques aimed at human psychological factors. Spear phishing attacks, one of the most commonly used APT hacking techniques, are known to be easy to use and powerful hacking techniques, with more than 90% of the attacks being a key component of APT hacking attacks. The existing research for cyber security threat defense is mainly focused on the technical and policy aspects. However, in order to preemptively respond to intelligent hacking attacks, it is necessary to study different aspects from the viewpoint of social engineering. In this study, we analyze the correlation between human personality type (DISC) and cyber security threats, focusing on spear phishing attacks, and present countermeasures against security threats from a new perspective breaking existing frameworks.

As the value of technical information increases, hacking attacks are trying to steal technical information through hacking. Recently, hacking of cryptocurrency exchanges is much easier to monetize than existing technical information, making it a major attack target for hackers. In the case of technical information, it is required to seize the technical information and sell it to the black market for cashing.In the case of cryptocurrency, most hacking attacks are concentrated on cryptocurrency exchanges because it is easy to cash out and not easy to track when successful hacking. Although technology cannot be hacked, cryptocurrency transactions traded on cryptocurrency exchanges are not recorded on the blockchain which is simply internal exchanges, so insiders may manipulate the quotes and leave gaps or leak out. Therefore, this research analyzes the recent hacking attacks of cryptocurrency exchanges and proposes solutions to secure cryptocurrency trading.

As network communication increases by using public WiFi to check e-mail and handling Internet banking, the danger of hacking public routers continues to rise. While the national policy is to further propagate public routers, users are not eager to keep their information secure and there is a growing risk of personal information leakage. Because wireless routers implement high accessibility but are vulnerable to hacking, it is thus important to analyze hacking to tackle the attacks. In this study, an analysis is made of the encryption method used in WiFi and cases of hacking WiFi by security attacks on wireless routers, and a method for tackling the attacks is suggested.

This study aims to present the necessary elements that should be part of South Korea's National Defense Strategy against the recent North Korean cyber-attacks. The elements proposed in this study also reflect the recent trend of cyber-attack incidents that are happening in the Unites States and other countries and have been classified into the three levels of cyber incidents: cyberwarfare, cyberterrorism and cybercrime. As such, the elements proposed are presented in accordance with this classification system. In order to properly take into account the recent trend of cyber-attacks perpetrated by North Korea, this paper analyzed the characteristics of recent North Korean cyber-attacks as well as the countermeasures and responses of South Korea. Moreover, by making use of case studies of cyber-attack incidents by foreign nations that threaten national security, the response measures at a national level can be deduced and applied as in this study. Thus, the authors of this study hope that the newly proposed elements here within will help to strengthen the level of Korea's cyber security against foreign attacks, specifically that of North Korea such as the KHNP hacking incidents and so on. It is hoped that further damage such as leakage of confidential information, invasion of privacy and physical intimidation can be mitigated.

Many defensive mechanisms have been evolved as new attack methods are developed. However, APT attacks using e-mail are still hard to detect and prevent. Recently, many organizations in the government sector or private sector have been hacked by malicious e-mail based APT attacks. In this paper, first, we built hacking e-mail database based on the real e-mail data which were used in attacks on the Korean government organizations in recent years. Then, we extracted features from the hacking e-mails for profiling them. We design a case vector that can describe the specific characteristics of hacking e-mails well. Finally, based on case based reasoning, we made an algorithm for retrieving the most similar case from the hacking e-mail database when a new hacking e-mail is found. As a result, hacking e-mails have common characteristics in several features such as geo-location information, and these features can be used for classifying benign e-mails and malicious e-mails. Furthermore, this proposed case based reasoning algorithm can be useful for making a decision to analyze suspicious e-mails.
