  • As the area covered by the CPS grows wider, agencies such as public institutions and critical infrastructure are collectively measuring and evaluating information security capabilities. Currently, these methods of measuring information security are a concrete method of recommendation in related standards. However, the security controls used in these methods are lacking in connectivity, causing silo effect. In order to solve this problem, there has been an attempt to study the information security management system in terms of maturity. However, to the best of our knowledge, no research has considered the specific definitions of each level that measures organizational security maturity or specific methods and criteria for constructing such levels. This study developed an information security maturity model that can measure and manage the information security capability of critical infrastructure based on information provided by an expert critical infrastructure information protection group. The proposed model is simulated using the thermal power sector in critical infrastructure of the Republic of Korea to confirm the possibility of its application to the field and derive core security processes and goals that constitute infrastructure security maturity. The findings will be useful for future research or practical application of infrastructure ISMSs.

  • Security products were developed and diffused for defense all emergency on cyberspace on E-commerce, but it requires special technique of information security in maintenance. The operation and need of security system was required in a public corporation and company, but it isn't provided in an appropriate time. Therefore, the domestic sites were vulnerable by security vulnerability. In this paper, we propose on the design and implementation of the data integrity analysis system that a novice manage usefully and automatically for management of E-commerce security products.

  • Although more than 99% of all Korean companies are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which accounts for a large part of the national economy, they are having difficulties in securing information protection capabilities due to problems such as budget and manpower. On the other hand, as 97% of cyber incidents are concentrated in SMEs, it is urgent to strengthen the information protection management and response capabilities of SMEs. Although the government is promoting company-wide information security consulting for SMEs, the need for supplementing it's procedures and consulting items is being raised. Based on the results of information security consulting supported by the government in 2020, this study attempted to derive improvement plans by interviewing SME workers, information security consultants, and system operators. Through the research results, it is expected to create a basis for SMEs to autonomously check the information security management system and contribute to the reference of related policies.

  • The user's secret key can be retrieved by various side channel leakage informations occurred during the execution of cryptographic RSA exponentiation algorithm which is embedded on a security device. The collision-based power analysis attack known as a serious side channel threat can be accomplished by finding some collision pairs on a RSA power consumption trace. Recently, an RSA exponentiation algorithm was proposed as a countermeasure which is based on the window method adopted combination of message blinding and exponent splitting. In this paper, we show that this countermeasure provides approximately $2^{53}$ attack complexity, much lower than $2^{98}$ insisted in the original article, when the window size is two.

  • Mobile Ad hoc Network is a network of multiple wireless nodes which communicate and exchange information together without any fixed and centralized infrastructure. The core objective for the development of MANET is to provide movability, portability and extensibility. Due to infrastructure less network topology of the network changes frequently this causes many challenges for designing routing algorithms. Many routing protocols for MANET have been suggested for last few years and research is still going on. In this paper we review three main routing protocols namely Proactive, Reactive and Hybrid, performance comparison of Proactive such as DSDV, Reactive as AODV, DSR, TORA and Hybrid as ZRP in different network scenarios including dynamic network size, changing number of nodes, changing movability of nodes, in high movability and denser network and low movability and low traffic. This paper analyzes these scenarios on the performance evaluation metrics e.g. Throughput, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Normalized Routing Load(NRL) and End To-End delay(ETE).This paper also reviews various network layer security attacks challenge by routing protocols, detection mechanism proposes to detect these attacks and compare performance of these attacks on evaluation metrics such as Routing Overhead, Transmission Delay and packet drop rates.

  • In the recent IT industry, security has established itself as the factor to be considered the most in the software development. It goes without saying that security is the critical factor for the development of information security products. In the evaluation of the information security products, the security is assured by the security architecture requirement (ADV_ARC). However, the Absence of the systematic software security architecture process makes it difficult to guarantee the security quality consistently even though they are evaluated based on common criteria. In this paper, we propose a way to ensure a consistent security quality applying the software security framework in BSIMM.

  • Guarantee of the data integrity is important to the Virtual Private Network (VPN) which can be improved cost decreasing and effective work by applying on Internet as the private network. Thus, the integrity function in the VPN must be maintained and the security manager must be check it occasionally. In this paper we propose the VPN Integrity Evaluation System (VIES) which is collecting, and evaluating automatically the vulnerable data of VPN against current hacking mechanisms in information security system. And this VIES obtain to the results which have objectivity and fairness of evaluation by driving off the evaluation scenario based on Common Criteria (CC), and general users or non-specialist can utilize easy the security evaluation of organization.

  • Even though software industry has been activated, there lack in results of studies on evaluation effort and cost of software systems including Information Technology Security System (ITSS). In this paper, we present a process and a tool for evaluation effort and cost of ITSS, which are conformed to a ITSS evaluation criteria(i. e., Common Criteria or ISO/IEC 15408), by utilizing Evaluation Work Break-down Structure (EWBS) and conventional software development cost estimation methods. Even though we concentrate on ITSS, results of this paper can be applied to estimation of effort and cost of evaluation of software development process and software products.
