  • With the recent increase in users' dependence on the Internet and the spread of various IT devices, the influence of information security on the users' has expanded compared to the past. Therefore, it is expected to have an increased influence on information security in personal life. In addition, as the intrusion factors that threaten security continue to become more advanced and diversified (eg., fake news, cyberbullying, identity theft), the need for nurturing information security experts is increasing. Furthermore, not only corporate information security workers, but also all individuals, cannot be free from the threat of information security. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare various information security education to improve information security awareness and induce proactive information security behaviors. In this study, characteristics of domestic and foreign information security education courses are analyzed and provide a standardized framework for information security education applicable to the domestic environment.

  • In various ICBM (IoT, Bigdata, Cloud, Mobile) IT convergence environments, IT technologies have been evolved, new information security threats have been occurred. As information security incidents in major public agencies, financial institutions and companies occurred, it was emphasized that the importance of human security was disclosed. Thus, implementing of information security management system could protect hacks and security breaches and respond quickly to accidents so it minimized the sized of loss. In this paper, comparison of human security controls shown in ISO27001, COBIT, NIST 800-53, K-ISMS, Cyber Security Framework such as the main information security management systems was analyzed, and proposed of the security implications about effective controls of human resources security issues.

  • This study explores the process in which employees adopt the information security policy. The results of this study, which surveyed 234 employees in three call centers and four hospitals, show that the employees adapt the information security policy through the social structuring process suggested by the AST model. In particular, this study identifies roles of two appropriation activities (FOA : Faithfulness of Appropriation & COA : Consensus on Appropriation) observed in the social structuring process. Regarding to the interactions between the two appropriation activities, FOA, which indicates a better understanding of the information security policy, is examined as a more critical factor than COA, which indicates the degree of agreement among employees about how to use it. FOA not only has a direct effect on compliance intention toward the information security policy, but also indirectly through COA, whereas COA has only a indirect effect through FOA. This result shows that, in order for a company to successfully implement a new information security policy, it is important for employees to understand its purpose and intention. The adaption of information security policy through two appropriation activities is observed in both hospitals and call centers, but due to the different working environments, there were differences in the preceding variables affecting the appropriation activities. The results of this study are expected to provide guidelines for companies who want to successfully adopt information security policy.

  • Security threats are increasing with interest due to the mass spread of smart devices, and vulnerabilities in developed applications are being exposed while mobile malicious codes are spreading. The government and companies provide various applications for the public, and for reliability and security of applications, security checks are required during application development. In this paper, among the security threats that can occur in the mobile service environment, we set up the vulnerability analysis items to respond to security threats when developing Android-based applications. Based on the set analysis items, vulnerability analysis was performed by examining three applications of public institutions and private companies currently operating as mobile applications. As a result of application security checks used by three public institutions and companies, authority management and open module stability management were well managed. However, it was confirmed that many security vulnerabilities were found in input value verification, outside transmit data management, and data management. It is believed that it will contribute to improving the safety of mobile applications through the case of vulnerability analysis for Android application security.

  • It is no doubt that information technology is the key factor of national safety. Information technology is positively useful for national security such as crime prevention and detection, criminal investigation, disaster management, and national defense. However, it might be a threat to the security as we saw in the examples such as '3.4 DDoS attacks' and 'Nong-hyup Computer Network Failure.' Although the effect that information technology makes upon the national security is immense, the current legal system does not reflect these changes well. National security should be kept during 'prevention-response-recovery' process regardless it is in the online on offline. In addition, public administration for national security should be based on laws. However, the current legal system is lack of legislative basis on cyber and physical disaster, and the laws on the response to disaster might cause confusing. Therefore, this study examines the limitation of the current legal system on national security, and suggests directions for the development of the system based on the new establishment of the legal concept for 'national security'.

  • It is very important to evaluate training because it can systematically grasp the current status of training. Evaluation includes getting ongoing feedback from the learner, trainer and learner's supervisor, to improve the quality of the training and identify if the learner achieved the goals of the training. It also provides a justification for the implementation of training. Nonetheless, there is a lack of studies that attempt to evaluate information security training programs. In this study, we utilize the Philips model to evaluate the public training programs for the people who are in charge of the information security duties in the public sector and propose the training improvement plans. Research result has shown that it is necessary to evaluate the level of the trainees in advance and conduct training programs according to the information security skill level. In addition, it needs to conduct training according to duties such as information security management, information security operate and maintain. The limitation of this study is that each education program was not assessed individually because this study had developed an evaluation tool that could be used comprehensively.

  • This research suggests the security countermeasures for solving technology outflow of small-medium companies in New IT Environment through level comparison of security cognition and security management between small-medium companies and major big companies. According to analysis results, it is poor for small-medium companies' level of security cognition and security management compared with major big companies. Small-medium companies need to manage technology outflow to major big companies' level in New IT Environment. Small-medium companies has started to build New IT Environment recently and it must build the appropriate security system for small-medium companies at the same time. Small-medium company has more problem with budget and proffessionals to maintain the security of technology outflow. Therefore government has to support systematic management for the security of technology outflow to Small-medium companies

  • The private security has been one of the fastest growing parts of the law enforcement industry, confronted with mutual coincidence or complementarity. Therefore, the primary factor in order to straighten it up should be bringing op a person, because he or she arranges the private security, based on the society in the end. In addition, it is suggested that further study of technical learning and its practice should be arranged. Because the education for agents undertaking the social security is comprehensive in space and limited in time, it may accompany hardship in arranging its content and curriculum Although this article leaves much to be desired, it has been analyzed end observed if a greater emphasis is placed on ample human resources supply for increased demand on social security in private law enforcement industry through institutional education system. A scientific advancement is expected to be attained in the majors related to the private security, with validity that the continuous studies should be implemented, and a social role of colleges as a specialized institute should be erected.
