  • In this paper, we propose a "Safe Web Using Scrapable Headless Browse" Because in a network separation environment for security, It does not allow the Internet. The reason is to physically block malicious code. Many accidents occurred, including the 3.20 hacking incident, personal information leakage at credit card companies, and the leakage of personal information at "Interpark"(Internet shopping mall). As a result, the separation of the network separate the Internet network from the internal network, that was made mandatory for public institutions, and the policy-introduction institution for network separation was expanded to the government, local governments and the financial sector. In terms of information security, network separation is an effective defense system. Because building a network that is not attacked from the outside, internal information can be kept safe. therefore, "the separation of the network" is inefficient. because it is important to use the Internet's information to search for it and to use it as data directly inside. Using a capture method using a Headless Web browser can solve these conflicting problems. We would like to suggest a way to protect both safety and efficiency.

  • Recently, with the development of ICT technology such as cloud and mobile, image utilization through social networks is increasing rapidly. These images contain personal information, and personal information leakage accidents may occur. As a result, studies are underway to recognize and mask personal information in images. However, optical character recognition, which recognizes personal information in images, varies greatly depending on brightness, contrast, and distortion, and Korean recognition is insufficient. Therefore, in this paper, we design and implement a personal information identification and masking system based on image recognition through deep learning application using CNN algorithm based on optical character recognition method. Also, the proposed system and optical character recognition compares and evaluates the recognition rate of personal information on the same image and measures the face recognition rate of the proposed system. Test results show that the recognition rate of personal information in the proposed system is 32.7% higher than that of optical character recognition and the face recognition rate is 86.6%.

  • Recently financial institutions and large retailers have a large amount of personal information leakage accident occurred one after another, and the damage is a trend of increasing day by day. Regulation such as enforcing the encryption of the personal identification information are strengthened. Efficient technology to encrypt personal information is Format-preserving encryption. Typical encryption expand output data length than input data length and change a format. Format Preserving Encryption is an efficient method to minimize database and application modification, because it makes preserve length and format of input data. In this paper, to encrypt personal information efficiently, we propose newly Format Preserving Encryption using Block cipher mode of operation.

  • There is a growing voice that medical information should be shared because it can prepare for genetic diseases or cancer by analyzing and utilizing medical information in big data or artificial intelligence to develop medical technology and improve patient care. The utilization and protection of patients' personal information are the same as two sides of the same coin. Medical institutions or medical personnel should take extra caution in handling personal information with high environmental distinct characteristics and sensitivity, which is different from general information processors. In general, the patient's personal information is processed by medical personnel or medical institutions through the processes of collection, creation, and destruction. Still, the use of terms related to personal information in the Medical Service Act is jumbled, or the scope of application is unclear, so it relies on the interpretation of precedents. For the medical personnel or the founder of the medical institution, in the case of infringement of Article 24(4), it cannot be regarded that it means only medical treatment information among personal information, whether or not it should be treated the same as the personal information under Article 23, because the sensitive information of patients is recorded, saved, and stored in electronic medical records. Although the prohibition of information leakage under Article 19 of the Medical Service Act has a revision; 'secret' that was learned in business was revised to 'information', but only the name was changed, and the benefit and protection of the law is the same as the 'secret' of the criminal law, such that the patient's right to self-determination of personal information is not protected. The Privacy Law and the Local Health Act consider the benefit and protection of the law in 'information learned in business' as the right to self-determination of personal information and stipulate the same penalties for personal information infringement such as leakage, forgery, alteration, and damage. The privacy regulations of the Medical Service Act require that the terms be adjusted uniformly because the jumbled use of terms can confuse information subjects, information processors, and shows certain limitations on the protection of personal information because the contents or scope of the regulations of the Medical Service Law for special corporations and the Privacy Law may cause confusion in interpretation. The patient's personal information is sensitive and must be safely protected in its use and processing. Personal information must be processed in accordance with the protection principle of Privacy Law, and the rights such as privacy, freedom, personal rights, and the right to self-determination of personal information of patients or guardians, the information subject, must be guaranteed.

  • As society has evolved to the knowledge and information society, the importance of internal information of the company has increased gradually. Especially in financial institutions which must maintain the trust of customers, the disclosure of inside information is a big problem beyond the a company's business information disclosure level to break down sales-based businesses because it contains personal or financial transaction information. Recently, since massive outflow of internal information are occurring in several enterprises, many companies including financial companies have been working a lot in order to prevent the leakage of customer information. This paper describes the internal information leakage incidents occurred in the finance companies, the PC security vulnerabilities exists despite the main security system and internal information leakage prevention and suggests countermeasures against increasing cyber infringement threats.

  • Due to the development of the e-commerce, the shopping mall such as auction collects and manages the personal information of the customers for efficient service. However, because of the leakage of the Personal information in auction, the image of the companies as well as the information subjects is damaged. Even though the organizations and the companies store the personal information as common sentences and protect using role based access control technique, the personal information can be leaked easily in case of getting the authority of the database administrator. And also the role based access control technique is not appropriate for protecting the sensitive information of the information subject. In this paper, we encrypted the sensitive information assigned by the information subject and then stored them into the database. We propose the personal policy based access control technique which controls the access to the information strictly according to the personal policy of the information subject. Through the proposed method we complemented the problems that the role based access control has and also we constructed the database safe from the database administrator. Finally, we get the control authority about the information of the information subject.

  • This paper proposes a new authentication model to solve the problem of personal information takeover and personal information theft by service providers using centralized servers for user authentication and management of personal information. The centralization issue is resolved by providing user authentication and information storage space through a decentralize platform, blockchain, and ensuring confidentiality of information through user-specific symmetric key encryption. The proposed model was implemented using the public-blockchain Ethereum and the web-based wallet extension MetaMask, and users access the Ethereum main network through the MetaMask on their browser and store their encrypted personal information in the Smart Contract. In the future, users will provide their personal information to the service provider through their Ethereum Account for the use of the new service, which will provide user authentication and personal information without subscription or a new authentication process. Service providers can reduce the costs of storing personal information and separate authentication methods, and prevent problems caused by personal information leakage.
