  • Cyber attacks can be classified by type of cyber war, terrorism and crime etc., depending on the purpose and intent. Those are mobilized the various means and tactics which are like hacking, DDoS, propaganda. The damage caused by cyber attacks can be calculated by a variety of categories. We may identify cyber attackers to pursue trace-back based facts including digital forensics etc. However, recent cyber attacks are trying to induce confusion and deception through the manipulation of digital information or even conceal the attack. Therefore, we need to do the harm-based analysis. In this paper, we analyze the damage caused during cyber attacks from economic and political point of view and by inferring the attack intent could classify types of cyber attacks.

  • Due to the expansion of cyber space, war patterns are also changing from traditional warfare to cyber warfare. Cyber warfare is the use of computer technology to disrupt the activities of nations and organizations, especially in the defense sector. However, the defense against effective cyber threat environment is inadequate. To complement this, a new cyber warfare operation concept is needed. In this paper, we study the concepts of cyber intelligence surveillance reconnaissance, active defense and response, combat damage assessment, and command control in order to carry out cyber operations effectively. In addition, this paper proposes the concept of cyber warfare operation that can achieve a continuous strategic advantage in cyber battlefield.

  • We can feel the fear through the reports of outbreaking centers of terror. Also, we noticed through "the 9.11 terror" that there exists no safety zone from terrorism. However, we should question ourselves whether we are relaxing attention or ceasing anxiety too much in the perimeter, as in the peninsula of Korea. Through "the 9.11 terror", the vulnerability of the United State's homeland security has been exposed, giving a serious damage to the national pride. President Bush started the war against terror to strengthen global joints of anti-terrorism, identify terrorists and contribute to the global peace, adopting offensive realism including preemptive attack concept which means to remove the threat preemptively. In today's reality of international politics, where the inhuman, indiscriminate, and anti-civilizational international terror became greater, extending to the stage of war, the international societies' agony and focus lies on how to banish it. The 9.11 terrorism, which is a new form of terrorism, is being distinguished from conventional terrorism into new terrorism. New terrorism is a new form of terrorism meaning that you do not know the enemy, the goal does not exist and they conscientiously use the weapons of mass destruction. This paper is a work meant to help understanding new terrorism, the new form, by a comparative analysis with the conventional terrorism. Therefore the origin, concept and general characteristics new terrorism is picked out and the representative forms of it, which are suicide bombing, cyber, biochemical and nuclear terrorism, are analyzed in detail in theoretical manner.

  • In e-terrorism, terrorists use cyber spaces including the internet in order to strike terror into the heart of a nation. It is revealed that recently happening terror cases use cyber spaces as a strategic tool. This research aims to investigate efficient countermeasures against various types of terror attacks made by terrorists and their cyber networking, in order to contribute to the prevention of terrors from a modern standpoint. Based on the results of the investigation, relevant problems are suggested such that terrors are not cases happening in a specific country only because they take place in cyber spaces, that hacking incidents frequently happen in Korea which is used as a footstool by foreign hackers, and that Korea has poor professional security manpower and foundational facilities in comparison with other advanced countries. Answers to the problems include cultivating cyber information manpower to cope with e-terrorism, making an appropriate budget, setting up networks to integrate and systematize anti-e-terrorism organizations, and intensifying the collection of information of cyber attacks and the analysis of the information.

  • Cyber-based technologies are now ubiquitous around the glob and are emerging as an "instrument of power" in societies, and are becoming more available to a country's opponents, who may use it to attack, degrade, and disrupt communications and the flow of information. The globe-spanning range of cyberspace and no national borders will challenge legal systems and complicate a nation's ability to deter threats and respond to contingencies. Through cyberspace, competitive powers will target industry, academia, government, as well as the military in the air, land, maritime, and space domains of our nations. Enemies in cyberspace will include both states and non-states and will range from the unsophisticated amateur to highly trained professional hackers. In much the same way that airpower transformed the battlefield of World War II, cyberspace has fractured the physical barriers that shield a nation from attacks on its commerce and communication. Cyberthreats to the infrastructure and other assets are a growing concern to policymakers. In 2013 Cyberwarfare was, for the first time, considered a larger threat than Al Qaeda or terrorism, by many U.S. intelligence officials. The new United States military strategy makes explicit that a cyberattack is casus belli just as a traditional act of war. The Economist describes cyberspace as "the fifth domain of warfare and writes that China, Russia, Israel and North Korea. Iran are boasting of having the world's second-largest cyber-army. Entities posing a significant threat to the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure assets include cyberterrorists, cyberspies, cyberthieves, cyberwarriors, and cyberhacktivists. These malefactors may access cyber-based technologies in order to deny service, steal or manipulate data, or use a device to launch an attack against itself or another piece of equipment. However because the Internet offers near-total anonymity, it is difficult to discern the identity, the motives, and the location of an intruder. The scope and enormity of the threats are not just focused to private industry but also to the country's heavily networked critical infrastructure. There are many ongoing efforts in government and industry that focus on making computers, the Internet, and related technologies more secure. As the national intelligence institution's effort, cyber counter-intelligence is measures to identify, penetrate, or neutralize foreign operations that use cyber means as the primary tradecraft methodology, as well as foreign intelligence service collection efforts that use traditional methods to gauge cyber capabilities and intentions. However one of the hardest issues in cyber counterintelligence is the problem of "Attribution". Unlike conventional warfare, figuring out who is behind an attack can be very difficult, even though the Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has claimed that the United States has the capability to trace attacks back to their sources and hold the attackers "accountable". Considering all these cyber security problems, this paper examines closely cyber security issues through the lessons from that of U.S experience. For that purpose I review the arising cyber security issues considering changing global security environments in the 21st century and their implications to the reshaping the government system. For that purpose this study mainly deals with and emphasis the cyber security issues as one of the growing national security threats. This article also reviews what our intelligence and security Agencies should do among the transforming cyber space. At any rate, despite of all hot debates about the various legality and human rights issues derived from the cyber space and intelligence service activity, the national security should be secured. Therefore, this paper suggests that one of the most important and immediate step is to understanding the legal ideology of national security and national intelligence.

  • Currently if we are to make a thought to depend on our fast developing information technology, a future war is necessarily to be made a situation of a cyber information warfare. A attacker in the cyber information warfare is able to make attack a military or a civil information and communication system, especially if a attack of a hacker, a virus or a electromagnetic pulse bomb at a military C4ISR system is able to make a confusion or a interruption in military operations, they are available to attack as a real time with non restrictions of physical distance, time, weather and space. While a expenditure of carrying out the cyber information warfares is the lowest expenditure, a effect of carrying out the cyber information warfares is the greatest effect in side of a interruption of information, a confusion, a terror, a pillage and crime of the people. This paper is to introduce "weapons of cyber information warfares", "offence capability of cyber information warfares about several nations" and to propose "a cyber information warfare organization" or the future knowledge warfare. the future knowledge warfare.

  • Cyber terror and cyberwarfare are no longer virtual, but real, and as an actual security situation, it is necessary to have new understanding through expanding the concept of war to neutralize not only the other country's military command system, but also the country's main functions such as telecommunications, energy, finance, and transport systems, and it also needs to establish the future development strategy of cyber terror response at the national level. Through analysis of cyberwarfare trends in each country and current status of cyberwarfare in Korea, it will systematically explore the demand of new policy based on laws and systems, including the strategies of cyber security technology development, industry promotion, and manpower training and existing information protection policies. through this, it effectively manages a sustainable national crisis, and it suggests to establish a future strategy for the medium and long term cyber security that can effectively and actively respond to cyberwarfare.
