A blockchain bridge (hereinafter referred to as "bridge") is a service that enables the transfer of assets between blockchains. A bridge accepts virtual assets from users and delivers the same virtual assets to users on other blockchains. Users use bridges because they cannot transfer assets to other blockchains in the usual way because each blockchain environment is independent. Therefore, the movement of assets through bridges is not traceable in the usual way. If a malicious actor moves funds through a bridge, existing asset tracking tools are limited in their ability to trace it. Therefore, this paper proposes a method to obtain information on bridge usage by identifying the structure of the bridge and analyzing the event logs of bridge requests. First, to understand the structure of bridges, we analyzed bridges operating on Ethereum Virtual Machine(EVM) based blockchains. Based on the analysis, we applied the method to arbitrary bridge events. Furthermore, we created an automated tool that continuously collects and stores bridge usage information so that it can be used for actual tracking. We also validated the automated tool and tracking method based on an asset transfer scenario. By extracting the usage information through the tool after using the bridge, we were able to check important information for tracking, such as the sending blockchain, the receiving blockchain, the receiving wallet address, and the type and quantity of tokens transferred. This showed that it is possible to overcome the limitations of tracking asset movements using blockchain bridges.

Along with the rise in the value of cryptocurrency, the interest of the blockchain is very high. However, most people do not understand cryptocurrency and blockchain very well. In addition, due to this lack of understanding of the technology, ideas about how blockchain technology can be applied in the food industry may not come up. Therefore, this content describes the advantages of blockchain technology in terms of security, starting with the understanding and operation method of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, and briefly describes the development of a blockchain system. And simple examples of how this blockchain technology can be applied to other industries are summarized, and examples used in the food industry are summarized. Finally, it was insisted that using such a blockchain technology can provide safe food to consumers.

Blockchain is designed to collect and store the data recorded on the network in one block unit, and is connected and stored back and forth, and its form is similar to how the blocks are connected, so it is called a blockchain. Many companies are trying to popularize blockchain-based services at home and abroad, and blockchains are used in various industries. This study introduces the technical characteristics of the blockchain and deals with application services utilizing the blockchain. Introducing 5 types of blockchain architecture and core technologies and introducing blockchain application services that are used in payment services, blockchain service networks, blockchain real estate platforms, identity verification, cryptocurrency, diamond distribution path tracking, and blog information recording. do. It is expected to increase the understanding of the blockchain and provide usefulness in future blockchain research and service development.

Metaverse, realistic virtual space technology has become a hot topic. However, due to the lack of an institutional system to the metaverse environment, concerns are rising over the leakage of industrial confidentiality, including digital assets produced, stored, processed, and transferred within the metaverse. Digital forensics, a technology to defend against hacking attacks in cyberspace, cannot be used in metaverse space, and there is no basis for calculating the extent of damage and tracking responsibility, making it difficult to respond to human resources leakage and cyberhacking effectively. In this paper, we define the scope of industrial confidentiality information and leakage scenario and propose policy and institutional measures based on problems in each metaverse scenario. As a result of the study, it was necessary to prepare a standardized law on Extra-territorial search and seizure issues and a system for collecting cryptocurrency evidence to respond to industrial confidentiality leaks in the metaverse. The study expects to contribute to industrial technology development by preparing in advance for problems that may arise in metaverse technology.
