  • Because VPN(Virtual Private Network) uses internet network, the security technique should support it and evaluation technique based on standard should support it. Therefore the method should be organized that can evaluate the security of VPN based on the related standard. In this study, we intended to construct the security evaluation model through combining CC(Common Criteria) which is a evaluation standard and a part of security(Confidentiality, Integrity, Non-repudiation, Accountability, Authenticity) evaluation of ISO which is the standard of software quality evaluation. For this, we analyzed the quality requirements about intra-technology and security of VPN and constructed the evaluation model related to the quality characteristics of two international standard. Through this, we are able to construct a convergence model for security evaluation of VPN. Through accumulating the evaluation practices for VPN in the future, the suitability and validity of the evaluation model must be improved.

  • A diversity of wireless networks, with rapidly evolving wireless technology, are currently in service. Due to their innate physical layer vulnerability, wireless networks require enhanced security components. WLAN, WiBro, and UMTS have defined proper security components that meet standard security requirements. Extensive research has been conducted to enhance the security of individual wireless platforms, and we now have meaningful results at hand. However, with the advent of ubiquitous service, new horizontal platform service models with vertical crosslayer security are expected to be proposed. Research on synchronized security service and interoperability in a heterogeneous environment must be conducted. In heterogeneous environments, to design the balanced security components, quantitative evaluation model of security policy in wireless networks is required. To design appropriate evaluation method of security policies in heterogeneous wireless networks, we formalize the security properties in wireless networks. As the benefit of security protocols is indicated by the quality of protection (QoP), we improve the QoP model and evaluate hybrid security policy in heterogeneous wireless networks by applying to the QoP model. Deriving relative indicators from the positive impact of security points, and using these indicators to quantify a total reward function, this paper will help to assure the appropriate benchmark for combined security components in wireless networks.

  • Advanced persistent threats (APTs) are constant attacks of specific targets by hackers using intelligent methods. All current internal infrastructures are constantly subject to APT attacks created by external and unknown malware. Therefore, information security officers require a framework that can assess whether information security systems are capable of detecting and blocking APT attacks. Furthermore, an on-line evaluation of information security systems is required to cope with various malicious code attacks. A regular evaluation of the information security system is thus essential. In this paper, we propose a dynamic updated evaluation framework to improve the detection rate of internal information systems for malware that is unknown to most (over 60 %) existing static information security system evaluation methodologies using non-updated unknown malware.

  • Cybersecurity assessment is the process of assessing the risk level of a system through threat and vulnerability analysis to take appropriate security measures. Accurate security evaluation models are needed to prepare for the recent increase in cyberattacks and the ever-developing intelligent security threats. Therefore, we present a risk assessment model through a matrix-based security assessment model analysis that scores by assigning weights across security equipment, intervals, and vulnerabilities. The factors necessary for cybersecurity evaluation can be simplified and evaluated according to the corporate environment. It is expected that the evaluation will be more appropriate for the enterprise environment through evaluation by security equipment, which will help the cyber security evaluation research in the future.

  • Recent increase of commercial network Integration to World Wide Web(WWW) shifts an ordinary commerce to electronic environment. This draws more people to examine re-assurance of their secure transaction. This study investigates current status of security methodology for Electronic Payment System and extracts important axis of security level for electronic payment. Using these axis as security evaluation criteria, the research proposes a security matrix which consists of four different level of security granularity, hence allowing evaluation of a nation-wide credit card based payment system. Feasible usage of this matrix contributes to security analysis of the electronic system as whole, hence providing better secured electronic environment.

  • For the verification of the security level against a IT product development environment, we should analyze the vulnerability and the various threatening factors which exists in the IT product development environment. Also we need the evaluation criteria and tools for the evaluation and improvement of the level of information security. For that, we need evaluation indices and the standard it will be able to improve the evaluation methodology in the actual IT product development environment which will reach it will be able to apply must be researched. In this study, our aims are the development of verification tools for the security level of IT product development environment.

  • Information society is dramatically developing in the various areas of finance, trade, medical service, energy, and education using information system. Evaluation for risk analysis should be done before security management for information system and security risk analysis is the best method to safely prevent it from occurrence, solving weaknesses of information security service. In this paper, Modeling it did the evaluation-base CBD function it will be able to establish the evaluation plan of optimum. Evaluation-based CBD(case-based reasoning) functions manages a security risk analysis evaluation at project unit. it evaluate the evaluation instance for beginning of history degree of existing. It seeks the evaluation instance which is similar and Result security risk analysis evaluation of optimum about under using planning.

  • The purposes of this study is development of information security evaluation model for governments to analyze domestic and foreign existing models. Recent domestic information security certification systems have several problems, because shortage of organic connectivity each other. Therefore we analysis on domestic and foreign existing models, specify security requirements, evaluation basis and other facts of models, optimize these facts for governments, and develop new model for domestic governments.

  • The purpose of this study is to develop a framework for evaluating security levels in hospitals. We classify security indicators into administrative, technical and physical safeguards. The security evaluation model for hospital information systems was applied to three general hospitals. The analysis of the results showed a low security level in information systems. In particular, requirements for administrative and physical safeguards were very low. Hospitals need strict security policies more than other organizations because their information systems contain patients' highly confidential data. The evaluation model developed in this study can be used for guidelines and as a checklist for hospitals. The security evaluation in hospital informational systems needs to be an essential element of hospital evaluation.

  • Security vulnerability quantification is the method that identify potential vulnerabilities by scoring vulnerabilities themselves and their countermeasures. However, due to the structural feature of smart grid system, it is difficult to apply existing security threat evaluation schemes. In this paper, we propose a network model to evaluate smartgrid security threat for AMI and derive attack scenarios. Additionally, we show that the result of security threat evaluation for proposed network model and attack scenario by applying MTTC scheme.
