As the utilization value of personal information becomes higher, discussions about providing personal information are being conducted actively. One of the most common methods of providing personal information is that a group obtains a personal information with a consent of individual. However, the above method has 2 problems. First, more information is exposed than the information required by organization for utilization of personal information. Second, trusted party should provide organization with an authentication of personal information whenever they require personal information. To solve these problems, we propose a personal information management system with blockchain using zk-SNARK(zero-knowledge Succinct Non-interactive ARgument of Knowledge) for privacy. Our proposal enables individuals to guarantee reliability of their information and protect their privacy concurrently using zk-SNARK when they provid organization with their personal information. In addition, it is possible to manage the personal information data while ensuring the integrity of the data using blockchain and it is possible to share the personal information more conveniently than existing systems.

The purpose of this study was to compare the perception of medical institution certification evaluation, job stress, turnover intention, safety management cognition of a general hospital nurse before and after the medical institution certification system. Data were collected from June 1, 2016 to July 17, 2016. The collected data were analyzed by mean, standard deviation, and paired t-test using SPSS 21.0. The results of this study showed that there was no significant difference between before and after certification of medical institution recognition, turnover intention, and safety management awareness, but mean score was high and job stress showed significant difference before and after certification.(t = 2.825, p = <. 005). That is, the job stress was higher than that after the authentication. Therefore, in order to reduce job stress of nurses preparing for certification, active and diverse human and physical support of medical institutions that can reduce work burden is needed.

The Native API is a system call which can only be accessed with the authentication of the administrator. It can be used to detect a variety of malicious codes which can only be executed with the administrator's authority. Therefore, much research is being done on detection methods using the characteristics of the Native API. Most of these researches are being done by using supervised learning methods of machine learning. However, the classification standards of Anti-Virus companies do not reflect the characteristics of the Native API. As a result the population data used in the supervised learning methods are not accurate. Therefore, more research is needed on the topic of classification standards using the Native API for detection. This paper proposes a method for re-grouping malicious codes using fuzzy clustering methods with the Native API standard. The accuracy of the proposed re-grouping method uses machine learning to compare detection rates with previous classifying methods for evaluation.

In order to use online financial services, user authentication technology is necessary. Password check through keyboard typing is the most common technique. However, since it became known that key stokes on the keyboard can be intercepted easily, many Internet banking services and easy payment services have adopted the virtual keyboard. However, contrary to the expectation that the virtual keyboard will be safe, there is a risk that key strokes on the virtual keyboard can be leaked. In this paper, we analyzed the possibility of password leaking on the virtual keyboard and presented a password leaking method using mouse event hooking and screen capture in PC operating system. In addition, we inspected the possibility of password leak attacks on several famous Korea Internet banking websites and simple payment services, and as a result, we verified that the password input method through the virtual keyboard in the PC operating system is not secure.

It proposes a plan to strengthen the limitations of existing corporate security systems based on Zero-Trust. With the advent of the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the paradigm of security is also changing. As remote work becomes more active due to cloud computing and COVID-19, security issues arising from the changed IT environment are raised. At the same time, in the current situation where attack techniques are becoming intelligent and advanced, companies should further strengthen their current security systems by utilizing zero trust security. Zero-trust security increases security by monitoring all data communications based on the concept of doubting and trusting everything, and allowing strict authentication and minimal access to access requestors. Therefore, this paper introduces a zero trust security solution that strengthens the existing security system and presents the direction and validity that companies should introduce.

Korean Government-PKI (GPKI) is a public-key infrastructure which provides authentication and security functions for information system used by central government, local governments, and public institutions of the Republic of Korea to provide their own administrative and public services. The current cryptosystem of GPKI was established in the early 2000s, and more than ten years have passed since the last improvement in 2010. Over the past decade or so, the information security, including cryptography, has undergone many changes and will continue to face many changes. Therefore, for the sustainable security of GPKI, it is necessary to review the security of the cryptosystem at this point. In this paper, we analyze the current status and the security of technologies and standards used in the system. We identify cryptographic algorithms with degraded security, international standards which are obsoleted or updated, and cryptographic parameters that should be revised for the high security level. And based on this, we make several suggestions on the reorganization of cryptographic algorithms and related technologies for the security enhancement of GPKI.

KMS (Knowledge Management System) is used by various organizations to share information. This KMS includes important information as well as basic information used by each organization. To protect infortant information stored in KMS, many KMS use user identification and authentication features. In such a KMS security environment, if the account information of a user who can access the KMS is leaked, a malicious attacker using the account information can access the KMS and access all authorized important information. In this study, we propose KMS with user access control function that can protect important information even if user account information is leaked. The KMS with the user access control function proposed in this study protects the stored files in the KMS by applying an encryption algorithm. Users can access important documents by using tokens after logging in. A malicious attacker without a Token cannot access important files. As a result of checking the unit function for the target user access control function for effectiveness verification, it was confirmed that the access control function to be provided by KMS is normally provided.

Recent advancements in the integration of satellite technology and the Internet of Things (IoT) have led to the development of a sophisticated network ecosystem, capable of generating and utilizing vast amounts of big data across various sectors. However, this integrated network faces significant security challenges, primarily due to constraints like limited latency, low power requirements, and the incorporation of diverse heterogeneous devices. Addressing these security concerns, this paper explores the construction of a satellite-IoT network through the application of Software Defined Networking (SDN). While SDN offers numerous benefits, it also inherits certain inherent security vulnerabilities. To mitigate these issues, we propose a novel approach that incorporates blockchain technology within the SDN framework. This blockchain-based SDN environment enhances security through a distributed controller system, which also facilitates the authentication of IoT terminals and nodes. Our paper details the implementation plan for this system and discusses its validation through a series of tests. Looking forward, we aim to expand our research to include the convergence of artificial intelligence with satellite-IoT devices, exploring new avenues for leveraging the potential of big data in this context.
