  • In recent years, due to the demand for operating efficiency and cost reduction of industrial facilities, remote access via the Internet is expanding. the control network accelerates from network separation to network connection due to the development of IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) technology. Transition of control network is a new opportunity, but concerns about cybersecurity are also growing. Therefore, manufacturers must reflect security compliance and standards in consideration of the Internet connection environment, and enterprises must newly recognize the connection area of the control network as a security management target. In this study, the core target of the control system security threat is defined as the network boundary, and issues regarding the security architecture configuration for the boundary and the role & responsibility of the working organization are covered. Enterprises do not integrate the design organization with the operation organization after go-live, and are not consistently reflecting security considerations from design to operation. At this point, the expansion of the control network is a big transition that calls for the establishment of a responsible organization and reinforcement of the role of the network boundary area where there is a concern about lack of management. Thus, through the organization of the facility network and the analysis of the roles between each organization, an static perspective and difference in perception were derived. In addition, standards and guidelines required for reinforcing network boundary security were studied to address essential operational standards that required the Internet connection of the control network. This study will help establish a network boundary management system that should be considered at the enterprise level in the future.

  • Cloud computing's unique attributes such as elasticity, rapid provisioning and releasing, resource pooling, multi-tenancy, broad-network accessibility, and ubiquity bring many benefits to cloud adopters(company and organization), but also entails specific security risks associated with the type of adopted cloud and deployment mode. To minimize those types of risk, this paper proposed cloud computing security framework refered to strategic alliance model. The cloud computing security framework has main triangles that are cloud threat, security controls, cloud stakeholders and compose of three sides that are purposefulness, accountability, transparent responsibility. Main triangles define purpose of risk minimization, appointment of stakeholders, security activity for them and three sides of framework are principles of security control in the cloud computing, provide direction of deduction for seven service packages.

  • Unlike a general IT environment, an industrial control system is an environment where stability and continuity are more important than security. In the event of a security accident in the industrial control system, physical motion can be controlled, so physical damage can occur and physical damage can even result in personal injury. Cyber attacks on industrial control systems are not simply cyber damage, but terrorism. However, the security of industrial control systems has not been strengthened yet, and many vulnerabilities are actually occurring. This paper shows that the PLC can be remotely controlled by analyzing the connection process and packets for the PLC protocol used in the industrial control system and bypassing the security mechanism existing in the protocol. Through this, we intend to raise the security awareness of the industrial control system.

  • The recent COVID-19 pandemic is threatening human life and well-being, causing pain that has not been experienced before. Human security was summoned again as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it is paradoxically a threat to human security due to its inherent limitations and authoritarian control model. This paper first raises the analytical rigor of the concept of human security, focusing on COVID-19. Based on this, the practical usefulness of human security is improved by constructing a practical model that reflects the human security issues raised in reality. In particular, we approach the COVID-19 pandemic not from a natural disaster, but from the perspective of an artificial catastrophe caused by immorality and division in the international community. At the same time, we propose a multilateralism governance model that reflects the perspective of emerging security in order to realize human rights, the fundamental value of human security, and quarantine, a practical task in a balanced way.

  • In modern society, a social economic change is brought about, because time space limitation regarded to be restrictive in times past was overcome owing to its rapid development on the basis of IT technology. The creation of new knowledge became the basis of competitiveness of nations and companies. As competition intensifies among nations and countries in relation to the development of core technology, companies make investment with placing much weight on the development of new technology, but on the other hand, technology leakage incident continuously occurs due to a lack of understanding to protect technology. This is the largest cause of impeding the competitiveness of nations and companies. And now, it is urgent to take security measures against this. Therefore, this paper analyzes institution and system weakness in the physical security area in the integrated security environment, and then identifies all problems about this, and proposes a plan for solving these.

  • Nuclear Power Plant Instrumentation and Control System(NPP I&C) which is used to operate safely is changing from analog technology to digital technology. Ever since NPP Centrifuge of Iran Bushehr was shut down by Stuxnet attack in 2010, the possibility of cyber attacks against the NPP has been increasing. However, the domestic and international regulatory guidelines that was published to strengthen the cyber security of the NPP I&C describes security requirements and method s to establish policies and procedures. These guidelines are not appropriate for the development of real applicable cyber security technology. Therefore, specialized cyber security technologies for the NPP I&C need to be developed to enhance the security of nuclear power plants. This paper proposes a cyber security technology development system which is exclusively for the development of nuclear technology. Furthermore, this method has been applied to the ESF-CCS developed by The KINCS R&D project.

  • In recent years, industrial automation has been established and WISN (Wireless Industrial Sensor Network) has been introduced for efficient system management. By introducing WISN, many engineering costs have been reduced and process processors have been optimized. And communication flow using wireless is increasing. An empirical study on industrial wireless sensor networks is actively conducted, but there are few security studies on them and they are exposed to such threats. If there is a problem with the standard of the wireless communication protocol itself, the device that is certified according to the standard may also be subject to security threats including problems. We analyze security functions and threats of ISA 100.11a and WirelessHART protocol stack based on standards. Procedures for distributing the security key are not provided or it is vulnerable using the Global Data Link key when the device enters the network. This paper presents the problems of the standard itself and presents the security requirements accordingly.
