The Internet of Things (IoT), which is emerging as a future economic growth engine, has been actively introduced in areas close to our daily lives. However, there are still IoT security threats that need to be resolved. In particular, with the spread of smart homes and smart cities, an explosive amount of closed-circuit televisions (CCTVs) have been installed. The Internet protocol (IP) information and even port numbers assigned to CCTVs are open to the public via search engines of web portals or on social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter; even with simple tools these pieces of information can be easily hacked. For this reason, a big-data analytics system is needed, capable of supporting quick responses against data, that can potentially contain risk factors to security or illegal websites that may cause social problems, by assisting in analyzing data collected by search engines and social media platforms, frequently utilized by Internet users, as well as data on illegal websites.

Cyberbullying has been an emerging issue in recent years where research has revealed that users generally spend an increasing amount of time in social networks and forums to keep connected with each other. However, issue arises when cyberbullies are able to reach their victims through these social media platforms. There are different types of cyberbullying and like traditional bullying; it causes victims to feel overly selfconscious, increases their tendency to self-harm and generally affects their mental state negatively. Such situations occur due to security issues such as user anonymity and the lack of content restrictions in some social networks or web forums. In this paper, we highlight the existing solutions, which are Intrusion Prevention System and Intrusion Detection System from a number of researchers. However, even with such solutions, cyberbullying acts still occurs at an alarming rate. As such, we proposed an alternative solution that aims to prevent cyberbullying activities at a younger age, e.g., young children. The application would provide an alternative method to preventing cyberbullying activities among the younger generations in the future.

Phishing scans through wired telephones have been evolving into smissing and pharming. While we use wire or wireless telephones, text messages, e-mails, and online-banking conveniently, the ways of hacking and phishing attacks are getting developed and various. This paper investigates the various aspects of attacks depending on the kinds of phishing and suggests general prevention measures. In addition, the user-oriented practical preventive measures and government-driven long term measures are proposed in this paper. Technological developments, short or long term preventive measures proposed by the government, and continuous public relations could be solutions since in a short time, it could be difficult to eradicate phishing scams evolving continuously. Besides, the internet media as well as SNS are great helps in promoting the preventives against phishing and smissing.

The study aimed to build an electronic strategy in innovative learning situations for the role of education in combating intellectual currents. A total of 525 Saudi university faculty members and general education teachers were surveyed using two electronic questionnaires. Arithmetic averages and standard deviations, One-way ANOVA, Scheffé's test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and Cronbach's alpha stability coefficient were used as statistical methods. The study statistically identifies the differences between the study sample at the level of significance (0.05). and the design of a digital application for individual learning to combat deviant intellectual currents to activate them in light of Saudi Vision 2030 by combining the theoretical academic material and turning it into a learning e-game called (crosswords). The game is equipped with hyper media that supports education with entertainment to direct ideas towards the promotion of identity, the development of values towards moderation and the consolidation of intellectual security. Additionally, the learning e-game represents awareness messages in three short films to activate the role of curricula and intellectual awareness centers to apply realistically, innovatively, and effectively.

The various types of data are being created in large quantities resulting from the spread of social media and the mobile popularization. Many companies want to obtain valuable business information through the analysis of these large data. As a result, it is a trend to integrate the big data technologies into the company work. Especially, Hadoop is regarded as the most representative big data technology due to its terabytes of storage capacity, inexpensive construction cost, and fast data processing speed. However, the authentication token system of Hadoop Distributed File System(HDFS) for the user authentication is currently vulnerable to the replay attack and the datanode hacking attack. This can cause that the company secrets or the personal information of customers on HDFS are exposed. In this paper, we analyze the possible security threats to HDFS when tokens or datanodes are exposed to the attackers. Finally, we propose the secure authentication protocol in HDFS based on hash chain.

The Jasmine Revolution started from Tunisia in January 2011 has brought many changes into countries in North Africa and Middle East. We need to study the causes of the revolution. First, the kings and dictators in those countries oppressed the opposition parties and the media aiming for long-term seizure of power. The power concentrated on specific people produced illegalities and corruption. Secondly, most of the national income of those countries belonged to kings and dictators producing problems during the distribution of the income. Especially, with the decrease of oil price in 1990s and the increase of the price of daily necessities in 2000s people lost their credits on their governments. Lastly, the number of people in those countries using the Internet has increased by 4,863% from 2000 to 2010. The expansion of social network services such as Facebook and Twitter was one of factors that made the information control by those countries difficult. We should think about the possibility of sudden change in North Korea. It is necessary to compare and analyze the political, economic and social characteristics between those countries and North Korea. It shouldn't be just a simple comparison or analysis. It should provide basic data for objective and quantified index development in relation to sudden change in North Korea.
