  • As the smart phone market is drastically expanding, there is a steady growth of recent vicious activities such as data manipulation, billing fraud, identity theft, and leakage of personal information that are security threats to Social Network Games(SNG). Due to the threats, Strong development standard is required for security enhancement of SNG. Nonetheless, short life-spans, additional expenses, and the necessities to provide a sound game service hinders developers from reaching their security goals. Therefore, this research investigates the weak points of SNG through memory manipulation experiments based on the currently provided SNG services. In addition, the research presents counter measures and security enforcements that are light in service load and simplistic which can be applied in the developing process.

  • 6LoWPAN based on IEEE 802.15.4 is a realistic standard platform for various Internet of Things (IoT) applications. To bootstrap the LoWPAN (Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network), each device must perform 6LoWPAN-ND address registration to assign a unique IPv6 address. Without adequate security mechanisms, 6LoWPAN-ND is vulnerable to a variety of security attacks including corrupted node attacks. Several security mechanisms have been proposed as a supplement to the vulnerability, but the vulnerability exists because it relies solely on IEEE 802.15.4 hop-by-hop security. In this paper, we propose and analyze a vulnerability of 6LoWPAN-ND address registration and a new security mechanism suitable for preventing the attack of damaged node. It also shows that the proposed security mechanism is compatible with the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard and is more efficient than the mechanism proposed in the IETF 6 lo WG.

  • Consumers' enhanced intention to adopt the Mydata service or their voluntary provision of personal information is a very essential element in the stable growth of the Mydata industry along with the creation of corporate values. The growing leakage of customer information according to the rising value of data can have negative impacts on the use of Mydata service and shrink quality custom service needs based on the personal information provided by financial consumers. This study set out to identify security risks that financial consumers could recognize and security factors that could supplement them and investigate the effects of these security factors on consumers' intention to adopt the Mydata service, thus providing useful implications for increasing the acceptance of financial consumers and finding a strategy to expand safe utilization. The findings raise a need to guarantee the stability and transparency of information provided by customers as information subjects, and they should be essential requirements for the Mydata service. The security factors applied to guarantee them should include convenience in terms of financial service.

  • In a disaster situation such as COVID-19, our society has experienced the spread of the damage due to confirmed patients who have a negative or uncooperative attitude toward the disclosure of personal information. Accordingly, this study aims to find a policy direction that can improve the awareness of the disclosure of personal information about confirmed COVID-19 patients. This study classified the concept of acceptability into personal and social acceptability, and statistically verified their relationship with influential factors. In this study, 594 cases of data collected through an online survey were used. The analysis results show that the greater the trust in the government's personal information management capability, the lower the perception of the risks associated with the disclosure of personal information, and the lower the awareness of the risk, the higher the personal and social acceptability of the personal information disclosure of COVID-19 confirmed patients. In addition, the greater the recognition of the utility of personal information disclosure, the higher the perception of personal and social acceptability of the personal information disclosure. It is expected that the analysis results and discussions of this study will be useful information for policy development to create a more mature social atmosphere to reduce the public's reluctance to disclose information not only in COVID-19 but also in new disaster situations in the future.

  • Utilization of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are rapidly expanding to various fields ranging from defense, industry, entertainment and personal hobbies. Due to the increased activities of unmanned airplanes, many security problems have emerged, including flight path errors to undesired destinations, secondary threats due to exposed securities caused by the capture of unmanned airplanes in hostile countries. In this paper, we find security vulnerabilities in UAVs such as GPS spoofing, hacking captured video information, malfunction due to signal attenuation through jamming, and exposure of personal information due to image shooting. In order to solve this problem, the stability of the unstructured data is secured by setting the encryption of the video shooting information section using the virtual private network (VPN) to prevent the GPS spoofing attack. In addition, data integrity was ensured by applying personal information encryption and masking techniques to minimize the secondary damage caused by exposure of the UAV and to secure safety. It is expected that it will contribute to the safe use and stimulation of industry in the application field of UAV currently growing.

  • The authentication process is a key step that should be used to verify that a user is legitimate, and it should be used to verify that a user is a legitimate user and grant access only to that user. Recently, two-factor authentication and OTP schemes are used by most applications to add a layer of security to the login process and to address the vulnerability of using only one factor for authentication, but this method also allows access to user accounts without permission. This is a known security vulnerability. In this paper, we propose a Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKP) personal information authentication scheme based on a Smart Contract of a block chain that authenticates users with minimal personal information exposure conditions. This has the advantage of providing many security technologies to the authentication process based on blockchain technology, and that personal information authentication can be performed more safely than the existing authentication method.

  • When a private information security incident occurs, the people who own the information are not acknowledged about their information leakage until those affairs appear in public media. This research aims at developing a mobile alarm system for acknowledging suspicious events to the information owners. The mobile alarm system was designed considering the limited user interface of mobile terminal and concept of "personal information leakage message tree" is deployed. The message tree contains every possible situation about personal information leakage and the leaves of the tree has several choices that the information owner can select. This message tree concept enables each information owner to manager his or her information leakage situation by just pushing a few buttons of mobile device. The contribution of this paper is in design of a comprehensive alarm message tree and development of mobile alarm system containing the message tree concept.
