Cloud Storage is the primary component of many businesses on cloud. Majority of the enterprises today are adopting a multicloud strategy to keep away from vendor lock-in and to optimize cost. Auditing schemes are used to ascertain the integrity of cloud data. Of these schemes, only the Provable Data Possession schemes (PDP) are resilient to key-exposure. These PDP schemes are devised using Public Key Infrastructure (PKI-) based cryptography, Identity-based cryptography, etc. PKI-based systems suffer from certificate-related communication/computational complexities. The Identity-based schemes deal with the exposure of only the auditing secret key (audit key). But with the exposure of both the audit key and the secret key used to update the audit key, the auditing process itself becomes a complete failure. So, an Identity-based PDP scheme with Parallel Key-Insulation is proposed for multiple cloud storage. It reduces the risk of exposure of both the audit key and the secret key used to update the audit key. It preserves the data privacy from the Third Party Auditor, secure against malicious Cloud Service Providers and facilitates batch auditing. The resilience to key-exposure is proved using the CDH assumption. Compared to the existing Identity-based multicloud schemes, it is efficient in integrity verification.

Many researchers have proved that information systems auditing is a very effective tool for improving information systems quality. However, information system auditing in Korea still includes many subjective judgements. This study deals with applying a quantitative model to improve information system auditing quality on security domain. First of all, we have looked at previous researches on information systems audit, especially on security audit. Based on this survey, we have come up with solutions to improve the evaluation efficiency on security audit. We have merged the security audit guidelines of NCA and KISA, and developed a quantified evaluation scheme. We have proved the validity of this model by interviews with experts and by case studies.

As the increase in the use of computers and rapid development of information technology exacerbate auditors' judgmental process, achieving objectives(effectiveness) of control and auditing with limited resources requires auditors to identify relative importance and priority of controls. Consequently, auditors' review and evaluation of internal control is been highlighted in modrn auditing process. Especially, as more organizations adopted LAN(Local Area Network) systems. LAN environment is facing with problems arising from characteristics of theLAN and the evaluation of LAN controls. The modern in this study is LAN control evaluation model with information system auditing objectives. This study concludes that auditors' proper evalution of the importance of LAN controls contributes to the effective achievement of IS auditing objectives.

With cloud storage services, users can handle an enormous amount of data in an efficient manner. However, due to the widespread popularization of cloud storage, users have raised concerns about the integrity of outsourced data, since they no longer possess the data locally. To address these concerns, many auditing schemes have been proposed that allow users to check the integrity of their outsourced data without retrieving it in full. Yuan and Yu proposed a public auditing scheme with a deduplication property where the cloud server does not store the duplicated data between users. In this paper, we analyze the weakness of the Yuan and Yu's scheme as well as present modifications which could improve the security of the scheme. We also define two types of adversaries and prove that our proposed scheme is secure against these adversaries under formal security models.

In case of auditing of the information system development project applying agile methodology, it is not appropriate to carry out a comprehensive check on the establishment of information system with only the existing check on software. This study considers the characteristics of the agile methodology in terms of Information System Auditing. To improve inspection quality of development project with agile methodology by deriving detailed check items of test activities at each stage, this study proposes a strategy to improve the check on software for the test activities of the supervisory model that is suitable for agile methodology, which emphasizes repetitive work.

Along with the evolution of Internet and its new emerging services, the quantity and impact of attacks have been continuously increasing. Currently, the technical capability to attack has tended to decrease. On the contrary, performances of hacking tools are evolving, growing, simple, comprehensive, and accessible to the public. In this work, network penetration testing and auditing of the Redhat operating system (OS) are highlighted as one of the most popular OS for Internet applications. Some types of attacks are from a different side and new attack method have been attempted, such as: scanning for reconnaissance, guessing the password, gaining privileged access, and flooding the victim machine to decrease availability. Some analyses in network auditing and forensic from victim server are also presented in this paper. Our proposed system aims confirmed as hackable or not and we expect for it to be used as a reference for practitioners to protect their systems from cyber-attacks.

Cloud computing is a technology for delivering information in which resources are retrieved from the internet through a web-based tools and applications, rather than a direct connection with the server. It is a new emerging computing based technology in which any individual or organization can remotely store or access the information. The structure of cloud computing allows to store and access various information as long as an electronic device has access to the web. Even though various merits are provided by the cloud from the cloud provides to cloud users, it suffers from various flaws in security. Due to these flaws, data integrity and confidentiality has become a challenging task for both the storage and retrieval process. This paper proposes a novel approach for data protection by an improved auditing based methodology in cloud computing especially in the process of cloud storage. The proposed methodology is proved to be more efficient in auditing the threats while storing data in the cloud computing architecture.

Users can access their data anywhere, at any time by using outsourced storage. But they cannot know how service provider manage the data. Even user cannot know when data damaged. To solve these problems, the outsourced storage auditing schemes has been proposed. Most proposed schemes are based on Homomorphic Verifiable Tags. But it has computational efficiency limitation because data used to exponent. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to outsourced storage auditing scheme using coefficient matrix. In the proposed scheme, data used to auditing by coefficient matrix form. Auditing procedures are proceed as solving the linear simultaneous equation. The auditor can audit easily by solving the equation using solution vector. The auditor can audit the n size data using sqrt(n) size data through out proposed scheme.

Information technology have led to change the automation of large industrial control system as well as business system and environments. Industrial control system(ICS) is vital components of most nation's critical infrastructures such as electricity, natural gas, water, waste treatment, transportation and communication that are based of national security, safety of citizen and development of national economy According to the change of business environment, organizational management pushed integration all of the system include MIS and ICS. This situation led to use standard information technologies for ICS, this transition has been to expose ICS to the same vulnerabilities and threats that plague business system. Recently government obliged owners of the public information system to audit for safety, efficiency and effectiveness, and also obliged the owners of national infrastructure to improve their system security as a result of vulnerability analysis. But there doesn't prepare a security architecture and information security auditing framework of ICS fur auditing. In this paper, I suggested the security architecture and information security auditing framework for ICS in order to prepare the base of industrial system security auditing.
