As cyber-attacks become more intelligent and sophisticated, the importance of Security Operations Center(SOC) has increased and the number of SOC has been increasing. In order to cope with cyber threats, institutions and organizations use a variety of cyber security standards to create business procedures. However, SOC often need to be improved in accordance with the SOC environment because they collaborate with managed security service specialists rather than their own personnel. The NIST cyber security framework, information security management system, and managed security service companies were compared and analyzed. As a result, it was found that the NIST CSF is a framework that is easy to apply to managed security service, The content was judged to be insufficient. Therefore, in this study, NIST CSF was used as a reference model to derive the management items required for SOC environment, and the necessity, importance and ease of each item were confirmed through an Delphi technique and an improved cyber security framework was proposed.

This paper proposes an efficient masking method for the block cipher SEED that is standardized in Korea. The nonlinear parts of SEED consist of two S-boxes and modular additions. However, the masked version of these nonlinear parts requires excessive RAM usage and a large number of operations. Protecting SEED by the general masking method requires 512 bytes of RAM corresponding to masked S-boxes and a large number of operations corresponding to the masked addition. This paper proposes a new-style masked S-box which can reduce the amount of operations of the masking addition process as well as the RAM usage. The proposed masked SEED, equipped with the new-style masked S-box, reduces the RAM requirements to 288 bytes, and it also reduces the processing time by 38% compared with the masked SEED using the general masked S-box. The proposed method also applies to other block ciphers with the same nonlinear operations.

Recently, there has been an increase in the number of social engineering techniques that indirectly attack the target system administrators or organizational weaknesses rather than the traditional technical cyber attacks that directly attacked the target systems. Accordingly, the type analysis and case study of social engineering techniques are being actively conducted. There has been, however, little effort to derive an analysis model that systematically analyzes social engineering based cyberspace operations. Therefore, this paper aims at building a Social Engineering Based Cyberspace Operations Analysis Model, which can be used as a reference framework for a case study or attack scenario generation of social engineering based cyberspace operations.

As a foundation of next-generation air transportation systems, automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) helps pilots and air traffic controllers create a safer and more efficient national airspace system. Owing to the open communication environment, it is easy to insert fake aircraft into the system via spoofing or the insertion of false messages. Efforts have thus been made in academic research and practice in the aviation industry to ensure the security of transmission of messages of the ADS-B system. An identity-based batch verification (IBV) scheme was recently proposed to enhance the security and efficiency of the ADS-B system, but current IBV schemes are often too resource intensive because of the application of complex hash-to-point operations or bilinear pairing operations. In this paper, we propose a lightweight IBV signature scheme for the ADS-B system that is robust against adaptive chosen message attacks in the random oracle model, and ensures the security of batch message verification and against the replaying attack. The proposed IBV scheme needs only a small and constant number of point multiplication and point addition computations instead of hash-to-point or pairing operations. Detailed performance analyses were conducted to show that the proposed IBV scheme has clear advantages over prevalent schemes in terms of computational cost and transmission overhead.

Key Agreement protocols are among the most basic and widely used cryptographic protocols. In this paper we present an efficient O-based authenticated key agreement (AKA) protocol by using bilinear maps, especially well suited to unbalanced computing environments : an ID-based AKA protocol for Server and Client. Particularly, considering low-power clients' devices, we remove expensive operations such as bilinear maps from a client side. Our protocol uses signcryption and provide security in random oracle model.

Rust is a promising system programming language that made its debut in 2010. It was developed to address the security problems in C/C++. It features a property called ownership, on which it relies to mitigate memory attacks. For this and its many other features, the language has consistently gained popularity and many companies have begun to seriously consider it for production uses. However, Rust also supports safe and unsafe regions under which the foreign function interface (FFI), used to port to other languages, falls. In the unsafety region, Rust surrenders most of its safety features, allowing programmers to perform operations without check. In this study, we analyze the security issues that arise due to Rust's safety/unsafety property, especially those introduced by Rust FFI.

The purpose of this study was to keep the Security Control Center, which operates under a shift system, uninterrupted during the COVID-19 virus epidemic. Security facilities responding to cybersecurity threats are essential security facilities that must be operated 24 hours a day, 365 days a day in real time, and are critical to security operations and management. If security facilities such as infectious disease epidemic, system failure, and physical impact are closed or affected, they cannot respond to real-time cyberattacks and can be fatal to security issues. Recently, there have been cases in which security system facilities cannot be operated, such as the closure of facilities due to the COVID-19 virus epidemic and the availability of security systems due to the rainy season, and other cases need to be prepared. In this paper, we propose a plan to configure a security system facility as a multiplexing facility and operate it as an alternative in the event of a closed situation.

As the emerged importance and awareness for information security, It is being implemented by each industrial sector to protect information assets. In this paper, we analyze the information security checklists or security ratings criteria to derive similarity and difference in context which used to knowledge network analysis method. The analyzed results of all checklists (ISMS, PIMS, 'FSS', 'FISS', 'G') are as follows : First, It is common factors that the protection of information systems and information assets, incident response, operations management. Second, It deals with relatively important factors that IT management, the adequacy of audit activities in the financial IT sector including common factors. Third, the criteria of ISMS contains the majority of the contents among PIMS, 'FSS', 'FISS'and 'G'.

A new type of malware that extracts personal and account data over an extended period of time and that apparently is resistant to detection by vaccines has been identified. Generally, a malware is installed on a computer through network-to-network connections by utilizing Web vulnerabilities that contain injection, XSS, broken authentication and session management, or insecure direct-object references, among others. After the malware executes registration of an arbitrary service and an arbitrary process on a computer, it then periodically communicates the collected confidential information to a hacker. This paper is a systematic approach to analyzing a new type of malware called "winweng," a kind of worm that frequently made appearances during the first half of 2011. The research describes how the malware came to be in circulation, how it infects computers, how its operations expose its existence and suggests improvements in responses and countermeasures. Keywords: Malware, Worm, Winweng, SNORT.
