The wide spread of Internet makes susceptible to the attacks via communication Web from hackers using the vulnerability of both computer and network systems. In this paper, we design and implement an integrated security system, named as LISS(Linux-based Integrated Security System) in which an integrated security management is possible. This system is based on the open operating system, Linux and consists of open security tools, which is effective in security management of Linux based-servers. We also construct a test-bed in order to testify the performance of the LISS. It is revealed that the implemented system captures all the attack Patterns generated from Network Mapper.

In order to take rapid action against malware, efficiency in malware analysis is essential. For instance, it would be helpful to identify and eliminate open-source function bodies or other safe portions out of the target binary codes. In this paper, we propose an tool to create open source dynamic link library files in Windows environment, extract signature information by opensource and compiler version, and compare open source function information to find suspicious function. In addition, the tool can save the information used in the comparison to the DB and use it later, reducing the analysis time overhead.

Open source software allows the users to freely use, copy, distribute and modify source code without any particular limitations, and this offers the advantages of low entry cost, fast and flexible development, compatibility, reliability and safety. The emergence of many useful open source projects has the advantage of achieving high levels of output with lower costs and time commitment for software development. However, this also increases the risks caused by the security vulnerabilities of the used open source software. There is still no separate process to verify security in using open source software. In this paper, we analyze the security weakness in open source and propose a secure coding scheme in adopting open source, which is known to be highly reliable from a security point of view.

Information-security management systems (ISMSs) are becoming very important, even for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). However, implementing an ISMS is not an easy task. Many obstacles must be overcome, e.g., complexity, document tracking, competency management, and even changing cultures. The objective of our study is to provide ISMS application tools, based on ISO 27001:2013 ISM frameworks. The application was developed on the Odoo Open Enterprise Resource Planning platform. To validate its feasibility for future improvement, the application was implemented by an MSME company. For this implementation, information-security-related users gave their feedback through a questionnaire. The distributed feedback questionnaire consists of nine assessment parameters, covering topics from the application's technical aspects to users' experiences. Based on the questionnaire feedback, all users of the application were satisfied with its performance.

Greybox fuzzing is known as an effective method to discover unknown security flaws reside in software and has been actively researched today. However, most of greybox fuzzing tools require an executable file. Because of this, a library, which cannot be executed by itself requires an additional executable file for greybox fuzzing. Generating such an executable file is challengeable because it requires both understanding of the library and fuzzing. In this research, we suggest the approach to generate an executable file automatically for a library and implement this approach as a tool based on the LLVM framework. This tool shows that executable files and seed files can be generated automatically by static/dynamic analysis of a unit test in the target project. A generated executable file is compatible with various greybox fuzzers like AFL because it has a common interface for greybox fuzzers. We show the performance of this tool as code coverage and discovered unknown security bugs using generated executable files and seed files from open source projects through this tool.

Reports of rampant cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities raise growing concerns on the effectiveness of current Static Analysis Security Testing (SAST) tools as an internet security device. Attentive to these concerns, this study aims to examine seven open-source SAST tools in order to account for their capabilities in detecting XSS vulnerabilities in PHP applications and to determine their performance in terms of effectiveness and analysis runtime. The representative tools - categorized as either text-based or graph-based analysis tools - were all test-run using real-world PHP applications with known XSS vulnerabilities. The collected vulnerability detection reports of each tool were analyzed with the aid of PhpStorm's data flow analyzer. It is observed that the detection rates of the tools calculated from the total vulnerabilities in the applications can be as high as 0.968 and as low as 0.006. Furthermore, the tools took an average of less than a minute to complete an analysis. Notably, their runtime is independent of their analysis type.

Recently, the liberalization of industrial control systems has been accompanied by a major change in the structural paradigm of information systems in the public and public sectors, and potential cyber security problems in the future major infrastructure control systems that cannot respond to the level of security of existing information systems. To cope with this, a cyber security evaluation tool that can evaluate security vulnerability in three dimensions against various infrastructure control system environment is needed. However, a cyber security evaluation in the domestic environments does not have the concept of the current security status and satisfy settings of the infrastructure. Also, the most of items in that environments have had short-term inspection themselves which makes a limitation by a technical area. In order to overcome this problems, many researches are needed to apply CSET (Cyber Security Evaluation Tool) which is the US cyber security evaluation tool to the control environment of various domestic infrastructure. In this paper, first, we analyze methods to apply to the major domain through the analysis of various case studies on existing security assessement tools. Finally, we discuss future directions.

According to the occurrence of many security incidents, the SOC(Security Operation Center) and SIEM(Security Information & Event Management) are concentrated recently. The various studies and commercial products of the information security industry are being released. As reflected in this situation, NIST in the US is publishing and revising the document about the Cybersecurity Framework. In this study, we investigated the NIST's Cyberseurity Framework, trends in SOC and SIEM security technologies and solutions, and also introduce the open source Apache Metron of a real-time Bigdata security tool.

The increases in UAVs(Unman Aerial Vehicle) such as drone result in safety issues and the threat of illegal drone as well. Recognizing the need for Drone forensics, domestic and foreign organizations and agencies are trying to establish drone forensic guidelines. The definition of Drone forensic artifacts and examination of forensic tools must be provided, in order to establish a practical drone forensic framework on security sites and also the concept of drone live forensic which provides meaningful data that can be extracted in a live state. In this study, the drone forensic methodology covering various types of drones is explained, and the practical forensic methodology with live forensic PoC(Proof Of Concept) tools; LiPFo(Live-PX4-Forenensic) is proposed.

The Malware App Analysis Tool is a system that analyzes Android-based apps by the AI-based algorithm defined in the tool and detects whether malware code is included. Currently, as the spred of smartphones is activated, crimes using malware apps have increased, and accordingly, security for malware apps is required. Android operating systems used in smartphones have a share of more than 70% and are open-source-based, so not only will there be many vulnerabilities and malware, but also more damage to malware apps, increasing demand for tools to detect and analyze malware apps. However, this paper is proposed because there are many difficulties in designing and developing a malware app analysis tool because the security functional requirements for the malware app analysis tool are not clearly specified. Through the developed protection profile, technology can be improved based on the design and development of malware app analysis tools, safety can be secured by minimizing damage to malware apps, and furthermore, trust in malware app analysis tools can be guaranted through common criteria.
