According to a survey on the infringement of SMEs, the level of technology protection capability is improving every year, but technology leaks and damage continue to occur. This shows that there is a need for a security management and supervision system that can strengthen the security awareness of SME executives and employees and maintain the security level continuously. The Personal Information & Information Security Management System(ISMS-P) authentication systems is the latest related standard, which has the problem of applying the same certification criteria without considering the types of certification target organizations such as ISPs, IDC, hospitals and schools, and SMEs.. In this paper, 73 evaluation items that can be specialized and applied to SMEs were derived by referring to ISMS-P certification and Personal Information Protection Management System (PIMS) certification. The results of the study show that the number of evaluation items decreased by 28.4% compared to the existing ISMS-P certification.

This paper focuses on the role of international standards related to industrial technology and to analyze determinants to affect ISMS and its performance. Particularly its financial and operational performance were measured by survey aiming at an influence of certification and its performances. The variables explaining the performance were drawn out from factor analysis and then critical variables to affect performance were discovered by ANOVA and regression analysis. As a result of the analysis considering heteroscedastic and factor analysis, type of business and firm size were not significantly related to the performance but the existence of information security unit, investment in information security and the status of security consciousness in executives and employees were positively related. As a result, this study shows that security certification should be implemented with suitable capabilities and the investments to protect from leaking industrial technology and proved the importance of the security certification as an infrastructures and system.

In the past few years, data leakage of information assets has become a prominent social issue. According to the National Industrial Security Center in South Korea, 71 percent who suffer from technology leakage are small and medium sized enterprises. Hence, establishment and operation of ISMS (Information Security Management System) for small and medium sized enterprises become an important issue. Since it is not easy to obtain ISMS certification for a small or medium sized enterprise by itself, consultation with an expert firm in information security is necessary before the security implementation. However, how to select a proper security consulting company for a small or medium sized firm has not been studied yet. In this study, we analyze empirically the selection factors of ISMS certification consulting company for a small or medium sized firm through exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Our study identified the following four important factors in selecting a security consulting company: expertise of the staffs and human resource management proficiency, market leading capability, competence to make progress during the consultation, and the performance and the size of the physical assets and human resources.

Many organizations need to comply with ISMS-P for information systems and personal information management for ISMS-P certification. Organizations should safeguard vulnerablities to information systems. However, as the kinds of information systems are diversified and the number of information systems increases, management of such vulnerabilities manually accompanies with many difficulties. SCAP is a protocol to manage the vulnerabilities of information system automatically with security standards. In this paper, for the introduction of SCAP in domestic domains we verify the applicability of server-oriented system which is one of ISMS-P certification targets. For SCAP applicability, For obtaining this goal, we analyze the structures and functions of SCAP. Then we propose schemes to check vulnerabilities of the server-oriented system. Finally, we implement the proposed schemes with SCAP to show the applicability of SCAP for verifying vulnerabilities of the server-oriented system.

정부에서는 내·외부 사이버 보안 위협 고도화에 대한 실질적이고 효과적인 대응을 위해 정보보호관리체계(Information Security Management; 이하 ISMS) 인증에 대한 법령을 시행하고 있다. ISMS 인증은 컨설팅과 인증심사를 분리하여 독립성을 확보하였으며, 현장심사 비중을 높여 기존 문서심사에 치중되었던 인증·평가제도와의 차별화를 통해 실효성을 증진시켰다. 그러나 최근 ISMS 인증을 받은 대상자임에도 불구하고 개인정보 정보유출 사고, 대규모 서비스 장애가 유발됨으로써, 다시금 ISMS 인증의 실효성 문제가 제기되고 있다. 현재 제기되고 있는 문제의 요인은 인증기준에 적합한 최소한의 요구사항만 심사·심의하는 ISMS 인증의 한계점에 기인한다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 ISMS 인증의 실효적 한계점을 개선하고 인증취득 대상자의 실질적 보안역량 강화시키기 위하여 성숙도 평가모델에 기반한 ISMS 인증제도 운영 방안을 제언한다.

Most industries have introduced and operate an information security management system (ISMS) or a personal information security management system (PIMS) to suitably protect and maintain customer's information and company trade secrets. This study starts with the premise that it is desirable for every industry considering information security to maintain an ISMS. ISMS can be of different types among various organizations, taking into consideration culture, practical work procedures, and guidelines for information security. This study intends to derive primary control areas of an ISMS for each industry based on organizational size and audit type by analyzing non-conformity trends and control factors according to certification audits for organizations introduced for international ISMS under ISO27001. This study analyzed improvement effects of ISMS through case analyses. It is meaningful as exploratory research, although it was difficult to acquire data for empirical study because few organizations maintain certification in major industrial sectors. The requirements presented the highest frequency of non-conformity for each type from the 2013-initiated ISO27001; the years 2013 to 2020 were extracted as the primary control area. The study found that for primary control areas of ISMS for each of three industries, organizational size and audit type had differences.
