With the rapidly changing era of the fourth industrial revolution, the utilization of IT technology is increasing. In addition, the demand for security authentication is increasing as shared services or IoT technologies are being developed as new business models. Security authentication is becoming increasingly important for all intelligent devices such as self-driving cars. However, most location-based security authentication technologies are being developed mainly with technologies that utilize server proximity or satellite location tracking, which limits the scope of their physical use. Location-based security authentication technology has recently been developed as a complementary replacement technology. In this study, we introduce location-based security authentication technology using cell broadcasting technology, which has a wider range of applications and is more convenient and business-friendly than existing location-based security authentication technologies. We also introduced application cases and business models related to this. In addition to the current status of technology development, we analyzed current changes in business models being employed. Based on our analysis results, this study draws the implication that technology diversification is necessary to improve the performance of innovative technologies. It is meaningful that it has found and studied advanced technologies other than existing location authentication methods and systems.

As the traffic environment gradually changes to autonomous driving and intelligent transport systems, vehicles are becoming increasingly complicated and intelligent, and their connectivity is greatly expandinged. As a result, attack vectors of such vehicles increasing, and security threats further expanding. Currently, various solutions for vehicle security are being developed and applied, but the damage caused by cyber attacks is still increasing. In recent years, vehicles such as the Tesla Model S and Mitsubishi Outlander have been hacked and remotely controlled by an attacker. Therefore, there is a need for advanced security technologies to cope with increasingly intelligent and sophisticated automotive cyber attacks. In this article, we introduce the latest trends of autonomous vehicles and their security threats, as well as the current status and issues of security technologies to cope with them.

The emergence of the Smart Grid is an integrated solution for the next generation power system that combines IT technology in the power system to create optimal energy utilization and various services. However, these convergence technologies (power systems and information communications) are not only improving the related technologies but also producing various problems especially exposure to cyber risk. In particular, the intelligent power grid has security vulnerabilities through real-time information sharing among various organically linked systems, and it is more complicated than the cyber risk problem in the existing IT field and is directly connected to national disaster accidents. Therefore, in order to construct and operate a more stable smart grid, this paper analyzes the system of power system control system in Korea, and proposes a cyber security element definition and a countermeasure establishment method of power monitoring & control systems based on security standards of smart grid (No. SPS-SGSF-121-1-1).

Our society is depending on mobile devices that play a major role in our lives. Utilizing these devices is possible due to their speed power and efficiency in performing basic as well as sophisticated operations that can be found in traditional computers like desktop workstations. The challenge with using mobile devices is that organizations are concerned with the interference between personal and corporate use due to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) trend. This paper highlights the importance of mobile devices in our daily tasks and the associated risks involved with using these devices. Several technologies and countermeasures are reviewed in this paper to secure the mobile devices from different attempts of attacks. It is important to mention that this paper focuses on technical measures rather than considering different aspects of security measures as recommended by the cybersecurity community.

As the data gets bigger recently, the demand for relational database management system (RDBMS) and NoSQL DBMS to process big data has been increased consistently. The digital forensic investigation method for RDBMS has been studied actively, but that for NoSQL DBMS, which is popularly used nowadays, has almost no research. This paper proposes the digital forensic investigation process and method for MongoDB, the most popularly used among NoSQL DBMS.

Extensible Storage Engine (ESE) database is a database developed by Microsoft. This database is used in web browser like Internet Explorer, Spartan and in Windows system with Windows Search, System Resource Usage Monitor. Previous ESE database viewer can display an incorrect result and can't read the file depending on collected environment and status of files. And the deleted record recovery tool is limited to some program and cannot recover all tables. This paper suggests the universal recovery method for deleted records and presents the experimental results through development of tool.

Studies on the intelligent vehicles that are converged with IT and vehicular technologies are currently under active discussion. A variety of communication technologies for safety intelligent vehicle services are support. As such intelligent vehicles use communication technologies, they are exposed to the diverse factors of security threats. To conduct intelligent vehicle security authentication solutions, there are some factors that can be adopted ownership, knowledge and biometrics[6,7]. This paper proposes to analyze the factors to threaten intelligent vehicle, which are usually intruded through communication network system and the security solution using biometric authentication scheme. This study proposed above user's biometrics information-based authentication scheme that can solve the anticipated problems with an intelligent vehicle, which requires a higher level of security than existing authentication solution.

Recently various types of cyber attacks have occurred. The strategic goals & tactical means of these have evolved. Especially KHNP cyber attack was the type of hacktivism combined hack and psychological warfare. The cyber attackers have forecd the nation to participate in the cyber warfare and the government to make strategic decisions to the releases of confidential information and the threats of stopping KHNP. In this paper, we would like to study the effective strategic decision-making model utilizing the game theory and including an attack intelligence on open policy Decision framework.

The focus of this paper is comparing relative effects of government policies for upbringing information security industry from the dynamic point of view. For the purpose of simplicity, these policies are classified into three groups, and then the relative effectiveness of these policy groups is examined using System Dynamics. The three policy groups are composed of technology development policies (TDP), human resource development policies (HDP), and direct supporting policies for overseas expansion (DSP). From the result of the analysis, DSP appears to be the most effective and HDP is the second-best group. By the way, for successful carrying into effect of DSP, marketing manpower should be strengthen. However, current HDP has been focusing on the bringing up technical experts. Therefore, overseas marketing manpower should be reared as well as technicians. Also, the existing infrastructure for overseas expansion for other industries should be shared for DSP of information security industry, because this is essential for success of DSP in terms of timing and costing. Finally, in spite of its low effect, TDP should be maintained continuously. The importance of information security technology is increasing and some countries have already considered these technologies as a core of future national defense. Therefore, we should acquire the competitiveness for a few technologies through continuous development of selected technologies at least.

A lot of OS(Operating Systems) such as Linux and Android selected Ext4 as the official file system. Therefore, a recovery of deleted file from Ext4 is becoming a pending issue. In this paper, we suggest how to recover the deleted file by analyzing the entire structure of Ext4 file system, the study of metadata area, the distinct feature when file is assigned and deleted. Particularly, we focus on studying the features of file which is assigned in Ext4 file system in Android OS and also suggest the method to recover the deleted file that is fragmented from the un-allocated area.
