Intrusion protection system is a security system that stop abnormal traffics through automatic activity by finding out attack signatures in network. Unlike firewall or intrusion detection system that defends passively, it is a solution that stop the intrusion before intrusion warning. The security performance of intrusion protection system is influenced by security auditability, user data protection, security athentication, etc., and performance is influenced by detection time, throughput, attack prevention performance, etc. In this paper, we constructed a convergence performance evaluation model about software product evaluation to construct the model for security performance evaluation of intrusion protection system based on CC(Common Criteria : ISO/IEC 15408) and ISO international standard about software product evaluation.

Recently, the importance of research and development for technological innovation is increasing. The rapid development of research and development has a number of positive effects, but at the same time there are also negative effects that accelerate crimes of information and technology leakage. In this study, a research security level measurement model was developed that can safely protect the R&D environment conducted at the organizational level in order to prepare for the increasingly serious R&D result leakage accident. First, by analyzing and synthesizing security policies related to domestic and overseas R&D, 10 research security level evaluation items (Research Security Promotion System, Research Facility and Equipment Security, Electronic Information Security, Major Research Information Security Management, Research Note Security Management, Patent/Intellectual Property Security Management, Technology Commercialization Security Management, Internal Researcher Security Management, Authorized Third Party Researcher Security Management, External Researcher Security Management) were derived through expert interviews. Next, the research security level evaluation model was designed so that the derived research security level evaluation items can be applied to the organization's research and development environment from a multidimensional perspective. Finally, the validity of the model was verified, and the level of research security was evaluated by applying a pilot target to the organizations that actually conduct R&D. The research security level evaluation model developed in this study is expected to be useful for appropriately measuring the security level of organizations and projects that are actually conducting R&D. It is believed that it will be helpful in establishing a research security system and preparing security management measures. In addition, it is expected that stable and effective results of R&D investments can be achieved by safely carrying out R&D at the project level as well as improving the security of the organization performing R&D.

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.

As social interest in the metaverse increases, various metaverse platforms and services are appearing, and various security issues are emerging accordingly. In particular, since all activities are performed in a variety of virtual spaces, and the metaverse utilizes sensing data using various hardware devices, more information is accumulated than other Internet services, and more damage can occur if information security is not guaranteed. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a metaverse security model that considers the major issues mentioned in previous papers and the necessary evaluation factors for the security functions required in the metaverse platform. As a result of performing the performance evaluation of the proposed model and the existing attribute information collection model, the proposed model can provide security functions such as anonymity and source authentication, which were not provided by the existing models.

Common Criteria(CC, ISO/IEC 15408) is an international standard for evaluation of Information Suity Systems(ISS). There need a suitable evidence of estimation of evaluation cost in an evaluation facility under the CC-based evaluation and assurance scheme. In this paper, we propose an evaluation effort model, which is based not only on assurance-level but also on product-type of ISS, by means of real experience of real evaluators, use-ratio concept and the Function Point of security function. The model is based not on a real evaluation environment of evaluation facility, but on CC, public PPs and product specific STs. Our result might be used as a basic model for estimation of evaluation cost and time of ISS in an CC-based evaluation and assurance scheme.

Government promotes that the strategy of national R&D converts from catch-up R&D type to leading R&D type for the future growth and national competitiveness according to the recent paradigm shift in the research and development. So the many national researches about foundation, source and core technology are actively being made. As a result of these researches, the security has become an important part of success factor in R&D. And so various security diagnosis and evaluation is being conducted about national R&D program. Existing the research security evaluation models are classified domains in terms of security management and created evaluation indicators according to the domains. However the models are inappropriate in case of researchers doing self-diagnosis of research security. This paper set up the domains in aspect of research management and then proposed the evaluation indicator of research security according to the domains. The evaluation indicator model that is suggested can be utilized in self-diagnosis of research security effectively.

Cyber security is an important issue in the field of nuclear engineering because nuclear facilities use digital equipment and digital systems that can lead to serious hazards in the event of an accident. Regulatory agencies worldwide have announced guidelines for cyber security related to nuclear issues, including U.S. NRC Regulatory Guide 5.71. It is important to evaluate cyber security risk in accordance with these regulatory guides. In this study, we propose a cyber security risk evaluation model for nuclear instrumentation and control systems using a Bayesian network and event trees. As it is difficult to perform penetration tests on the systems, the evaluation model can inform research on cyber threats to cyber security systems for nuclear facilities through the use of prior and posterior information and backpropagation calculations. Furthermore, we suggest a methodology for the application of analytical results from the Bayesian network model to an event tree model, which is a probabilistic safety assessment method. The proposed method will provide insight into safety and cyber security risks.

Recently, the necessity of systematic security management system that consider company' character and environment has appeared because of increasing security accident continuously in domestic companies. However, most of companies has applied to only K-ISMS which is existing information security management system, although They are different from object, purpose and way of security level evaluation by companies. According to this situation, Many experts have questioned that there are many problems with effectiveness of introducing security management system. In this study, We established definition of information security management system, industrial security management system and research security management system through analysis of previous study and developed evaluation item which can implement security in whole industry comparing and analyzing the control items of them. Also, we analyzed existing security level evaluation and suggest design direction of industry-centric security level evaluation model considering character of industry.
