The purpose of this paper is to provide several considerations to be taken into account when institutionalizing the information security(Infosec) pre-assessment. Infosec pre-assessment is a necessary process to embed the security requirements into the information systems at the early stages in their development, resulting in more cost-effective infosec. In order to provide some institutional issues, domestic infosec assessment schemes and U.S. Infosec certification and accreditation schemes are reviewed. Also, the current status of infosec implementation in the public information systems projects is analyzed. Based on the analyses, the seven suggestions are proposed in developing and performing the infosec pre-assessment scheme.

This study aims to substantiate an interdisciplinary methodology for automated analysis and qualitative assessment of legislation and court decisions. The development of this kind of methodology will make it possible to fill a number of methodological gaps in various research areas, including law effectiveness assessment and legal monitoring. We have defined a methodology based on the interdisciplinary principles and tools. In general, it should be noted that even at the level of qualitative assessment made with the use of the methodology described above, the accumulation of knowledge about the relationship between legal objectives, indicators and computer methods of their identification can reduce the role of expert knowledge and subjective factor in the process of assessment, planning, forecasting and control over the state of legislation and law enforcement. Automation of intellectual processes becomes inevitable in a digital society, but, releasing experts from routine work, simultaneously reorients it to development of interdisciplinary methods and control over their application.

This study shows the result of the security assessment of the nationwide key energy facilities and suggests the ways of improving the security level. According to the study, most of the energy facilities are adequately equipped with physical security factors such as security personnel, security systems, fences, and guard posts, but lack of awareness is pervasive among those concerned, so the security operation is inefficient. In other words, inefficient deployment of security personnel, lack of the fundamental knowledge of the security systems, excessive dependence on surveillance cameras' functions such as Pan/Tilt/Zoom, misplaced cameras, low efficiency of monitoring, and irrelevant security plans. To solve these problems, above all, the authority concerned need to develop professional training programs to secure certified security mangers, and need to standardize security process to ensure consistency and to harness the standardization as a source of self assessment to improve security level.

This study focuses on assessing the security ri sk or the terrorism in chemical process industries. This research modifies conventional method for assessing the terrorism risk. The risk assessment method is developed and it is implemented as software to analyze the possibility of terrorism and sabotage. This program includes five steps; asset characterization, threat assessment, vulnerability analysis, risk assessment and new countermeasures. It is a systematic, risk based approach in which risk is a function of the severity of consequences of an undesired event, the likelihood of adversary attack, and the likelihood of adversary success in causing the undesired event. The reliability of the program is verified using a dock zone case. The case dock zone includes a storage farm, a manufacturing plant, an electrical supply utility, a hydrotreater unit, many containers, and administration buildings. This study represents chemical terrorism response technology, the prevention plan, and new countermeasure to mitigate by using risk assessment methods in the chemical industry and public sector. This study suggests an effective approach to the chemical terrorism response management.

Cloud computing service is a next generation IT service which has pay-per-use billing model and supports elastically provisioning IT infra according to user demand. However it has many potential threats originating from outsourcing/supporting service structure that customers 'outsource' their own data and provider 'supports' infra, platform, application services, the complexity of applied technology, resource sharing and compliance with a law, etc. In activation of Cloud service, we need objective assessment standard to ensure safety and reliability which is one of the biggest obstacles to adopt cloud service. So far information security management system has been used as a security standard for a security management and IT operation within an organization. As for Cloud computing service it needs new security management and assessment different from those of the existing in-house IT environment. In this paper, to make a Information Security Management System considering cloud characteristics key components from threat management system are drawn and all control domain of existing information security management system as a control components are included. Especially we designed service security management to support service usage in an on-line self service environment and service contract and business status.

Since Personal Information Protection Act came into effect on September 2011, PIA(Privacy Impact Assessment) of public institutions has become obliged. Therefore, an increasing demand for PIA professionals is being expected. In domestic, however, no specialized certificates exist and therefore similar certificates have become a requirement for PIA professionals. Henceforth, however, the system based on these similar certificates is to be an obstacle to advancing PIA. Therefore, this study analyzes the sufficiency of current similar certificates compared with the PIA qualification requirements. And then, analyzes the validity of allowance as similar certificates by using this outcome of the validity. As this comparison draws a clear gap between PIA qualification and similar certificates, this paper suggest three suggestions to improve current qualification. Three suggestions are expected to contribute a qualitative improvement of the PIA industry.

Recently security related attacks occur in very diverse ways, aiming at people who operate the system rather than the system itself by exploiting vulnerabilities of the system. However, to the our best knowledge, there has been very few works to analyze and strategically to deal with the risks of social engineering attacks targeting people. In this paper, in order to access risks of social engineering attacks we analyze those attacks in terms of attack routes, attack means, attack steps, attack tools, attack goals. Then, with the purpose of accessing the organizational risks we consider the characteristics and environments of the organizations because the impacts of attacks on the organizations obviously depend on the characteristics and environments of the organizations. In addition, we analyze general attack risk assessment methods such as CVSS, CWSS, and OWASP Risk Rating Methodolog. Finally, we propose the risk access scheme of social engineering attacks for the organizations. The proposed scheme allows each organization to take its own proper actions to address social engineering attacks according to the changes of its environments.

In order to manage information security risk, various information security level evaluation and information security management system certification have been conducted on a larger scale than ever. However, there are continuous cases of infringement of information protection for companies with excellent information security evaluation and companies with excellent information security management system certification. The existing information security risk management methodology identifies and analyzes risks by identifying information assets inside the information system. Existing information security risk management methodology lacks a review of where cyber threats come from and whether security devices are properly operated for each route. In order to improve the current risk management plan, it is necessary to look at where cyber threats come from and improve the containment level for each inflow section to absolutely reduce unnecessary cyber threats. In addition, it is essential to measure and improve the appropriate configuration and operational level of security equipment that is currently overlooked in the risk management methodology. It is necessary to block and enter cyber threats as much as possible, and to detect and respond to cyber threats that inevitably pass through open niches and use security devices. Therefore, this paper proposes additional evaluation items for evaluating the containment level against cyber threats in the ISMS-P authentication items and vulnerability analysis and evaluation items for major information and communication infrastructures, and evaluates the level of security equipment configuration for each inflow.

Existing information security risk assessment methods focus on evaluating the vulnerability of information assets. However, when the form of information assets changes and new types of information assets emerge, there is a limitation in that the evaluation standards for them are also added or deleted. Existing methods have insufficient research on the path through which cyber threats are introduced. In particular, there is very little research on blocking the inflow path for web-based information systems with public IPs. Therefore, this paper introduces the main research contents of the BDLA (Blockade and Defense Level Analysis)-based information security risk assessment model. In addition, by applying the BDLA-based information security risk assessment model, the information security risk level was studied by measuring the blockade level and security equipment level of 17 public institutions.
