  • The nuclear supply chain attack surface is a large, complex network of interconnected stakeholders and activities. The global economy has widened and deepened the supply chain, resulting in larger numbers of geographically dispersed locations and increased difficulty ensuring the authenticity and security of critical digital assets. Although the nuclear industry has made significant strides in securing facilities from cyber-attacks, the supply chain remains vulnerable. This paper discusses supply chain threats and vulnerabilities that are often overlooked in nuclear cyber supply chain risk analysis. A novel supply chain cyber-attack surface diagram is provided to assist with enumeration of risks and to examine the complex issues surrounding the requirements for securing hardware, firmware, software, and system information throughout the entire supply chain lifecycle. This supply chain cyber-attack surface diagram provides a dashboard that security practitioners and researchers can use to identify gaps in current cyber supply chain practices and develop new risk-informed, cyber supply chain tools and processes.

  • The competition for technological supremacy is unfolding in the high-tech field, and quantum computing can be determinant for economic and security ripple effects. The United States and China, leaders in quantum computing, have developed this field through adequate policies. The United States has fostered quantum computing through government policies and competition among private companies, while China has secured world-class technology through large-scale government investment and attracting foreign talent. In quantum computing, securing talented people is essential to guarantee independent technology development regarding academic attributes and security. We analyze quantum computing policies in the United States and China on a timeline and determine their policy trends. In addition, the policies for securing talent in these countries are reviewed, and the policy effects are compared based on literature analysis. Through the analysis of policy cases between the United States and China, bilateral policy implications for Korea are delineated.

  • In the case of domestic coastal ships, an information system for the purpose of managing cargo loading, securing, and inspection processes is not in operation. It presents functional elements that meet the service requirements for information systems for more efficient execution of ship loading and unloading services at port. This is a study on the information system that manages the process of reservation, onboard arrangement, securing and inspection of sea freight.

  • Artificial-intelligence (AI) semiconductors are crucial for securing national core competitiveness, including dominating the AI and data ecosystem and succeeding in the Digital New Deal. When examining the macroenvironment, the global division of labor in the semiconductor industry has weakened owing to the technological competition between the United States and China. Major countries are aiming to build the entire semiconductor ecosystem around their territories. As a result, these countries are formulating policy goals tailored to their realities and actively pursuing key policies such as research and development, securing manufacturing bases, workforce development, and financial support. These policies also focus on intercountry cooperation and bold government policy support, which is deemed essential. To secure core competitiveness in AI semiconductors, South Korea needs to examine the policy directions of major countries and actively formulate and implement policies for this semiconductor industry.

  • In mobile market which has been developed drastically, short distance mobile Near Field Communication is becoming the conversation topic. Google adopted this NFC technology to Android 플랫폼 for securing the leadership and many another countries including domestic companies are putting spurs to develop service and technology by connecting mobile carrier and the financial. Within this circumstance, most noticeable issue is securing stability of nfc application service. Android 플랫폼 is operating system of mobile device and also a software stack which is required limited hardware and immediate response. However, since its structural characteristic which is suitable for limited hardware, the response is not quite stable for real time process. That is, this paper researches by analyzing real time response of NFC related library provided from Android 플랫폼 and applying the result to NFC application for securing stable data process and response.
