System administrator or security managers need to collect logs of computing device (desktop or server), which are used for the purpose of cause-analysis of security incident and discover if damage to system was either caused by hacking or computer virus. Furthermore, appropriate log maintenance helps preventing security breech incidents through identification of vulnerability. In addition, it can be utilized for prevention of data leakage through the insider. In the paper, we present log collection system developed using open source supported by commands and basic methods of Windows. Furthermore, we aim to collect log information to enable search and analysis from diverse perspectives and to propose a way to integrate with open source-based search engine system.

Credit card is means of payment used like cash in terms of function and its users have increased consistently. With development of Internet and electronic commerce a role as payment method of credit card has been growing. But as the risk which results from centralized information and online increases, credit card fraud is also growing. Card theft and loss are decreasing due to countermeasure of card companies and financial supervisory authorities, while card forge and identity theft are increasing. Recently because of frequent personal information leakage and deregulation of financial security following easy-to-use payment enforcement, customer's anxiety about card fraud is growing. And the increase of card fraud lowers trust on credit system as well as causes social costs. In this paper, the security problems of card operating system are addressed in depth and the measures such as immediate switch to IC card terminals, introduction of new security technology, supervision reinforcement of the authorities are proposed.

In the Policy and Charging Control(PCC) architecture of the 3GPP and WiMAX forum, the Policy and Charging Rule Function(PCRF) controls and configures the policies of quality of services(QoS) and accounting to a Policy and Charging Rule Enforcement Function(PCEF). In this paper, we categorize the errors into three types that include a disconnection with peer entity, a delayed or no response and a response with failure result, and propose a scheme to automatically synchronize the data between the PCRF and the PCEF for each type of error. Also, we conduct a quantitative analysis to see how much it can help to maintain the cell capacity of the mobile VoIP service in a WiBro network, which is implemented in Korea according to the standards of WiMAX. We can see that our proposed scheme improves the performances of PCC by preventing the waste of radio resources, the overload of systems, the memory leakage of servers, the system shutdown, and so on. We have validated the scheme by implementation, and reflected it in WiMAX standard documents.

Since existing server-based authentications use vulnerable password-based authentication, illegal leak of personal data occurs frequently. Since this can cause illegal ID compromise, alternative authentications have been studied. Recently token-based authentications like OAuth 2.0 or JWT have been used in web sites, however, they have a weakness that if a hacker steals JWT token in the middle, they can obtain plain authentication data from the token, So we suggest a new authentication method using the verification token of authentic code to encrypt authentication data with effective time. The verification is to compare an authentication code from decryption of the verification-token with its own code. Its crypto-method is based on do XOR with ECDH session key, which is so fast and efficient without overhead of key agreement. Our method is outstanding in preventing the personal data leakage.

Recently, with smart device proliferation and providing the various services using this, they have interested in mobile and Smart TV security. Smartphone users are enjoying various service, such as cloud, game, banking. But today's mobile security solutions and Study of Smart TV Security simply stays at the level of malicious code detection, mobile device management, security system itself. Accordingly, there is a need for technology for preventing hacking and leakage of sensitive information, such as certificates, legal documents, individual credit card number. To solve this problem, a variety of security technologies(mobile virtualization, ARM TrustZone, GlobalPlatform, MDM) in mobile devices have been studied. In this paper, we propose an efficient method to implement security technology based on TYPE-I virtualization using ARM TrustZone technology.

During low-pressure membrane treatments of cyanobacterial cells, including microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF), there have reportedly been releases of intracellular compounds including cyanotoxins and compounds with an earthy-musty odor into the water, probably owing to cyanobacterial cell breakage retained on the membrane. However, to our knowledge, no information was reported regarding the effect of growth phase of cyanobacterial cells on the release of the intracellular compounds. In the present study, we used a geosmin-producing cyanobacterium, Anabaena smithii, to investigate the effect of the growth phase of the cyanobacterium on the release of intracellular geosmin during laboratory-scale MF experiments with the cells in either the logarithmic growth or stationary phase. Separate detection of damaged and intact cells revealed that the extent of cell breakage on the MF membrane was almost the same for logarithmic growth and stationary phase cells. However, whereas the geosmin concentration in the MF permeate increased after 3 h of filtration with cells in the logarithmic growth phase, it did not increase during filtration with cells in the stationary phase: the trend in the geosmin concentration in the MF permeate with time was much different between the logarithmic growth and stationary phases. Adsorption of geosmin to algogenic organic matter (AOM) retained on the MF membrane and/or pore blocking with the AOM were greater when the cells were in the stationary phase versus the logarithmic growth phase, the result being a decrease in the apparent release of intracellular geosmin from the stationary phase cells. In actual drinking water treatment plants employing membrane processes, more attention should be paid to the cyanobacterial cells in logarithmic growth phase than in stationary phase from a viewpoint of preventing the leakage of intracellular earthy-musty odor compounds to finished water.

The use of smart home appliances and Internet of Things (IoT) devices is growing, enabling new interactions and automation in the home. This technology relies heavily on mobile services which leaves it vulnerable to the increasing threat of hacking, identity theft, information leakage, serious infringement of personal privacy, abnormal access, and erroneous operation. Confirming or proving such security breaches have occurred is also currently insufficient. Furthermore, due to the restricted nature of IoT devices, such as their specifications and operating environments, it is difficult to provide the same level of internet security as personal computers. Therefore, to increase the security on smart home IoT devices, attention is needed on (1) preventing hacking and user authority theft; (2) disabling abnormal manipulation; and (3) strengthening audit records for device operation. In response to this, we present a plan to build a cloud security authentication platform which features security authentication management functionality between mobile terminals and IoT devices.

This study examined the institutional improvement directions of industrial security programs, particularly focusing upon policies and practices in the U.S., to enhance the effectiveness of industrial security programs in Korea. This study also aimed to investigate the significance of institutional and/or policy implementations in preventing economic espionage attempt. Data leakage and/or loss of trade secrets in corporations has been a scary proposition and a serious headache to both the CEOs and the CSOs(Chief Security Officers). Security professionals or practitioners have always had to deal with data leakage issues that arise from e-mail, instant messaging(IM), and other Internet communication channels. In addition, with the proliferation of wireless and mobile technology, it's now much easier than ever for loss by data breaches to occur, whether accidentally or maliciously or even by an economic espionage attempt. The researcher in this study used both a case study and a comparative research to analyze the different strategies and approaches between the U.S. and Korea in regard of implementing policies to mitigate damages by economic espionage attempts and prevent them from occurring. The researcher first examined the current policies and practices in the U.S. in terms of federal government's and agencies' approach and strategies on industrial security programs and their partnerships with private-commercial-sectors. The purpose of this paper is to explain and suggest selected findings, and a discussion of actions to be taken on implementing a proactive and tactical approach to enhance the effectiveness of industrial security programs to fight against information loss or data leaks. This study used case reviews, literatures, newspapers, articles, and Internet resources relating to the subject of this study for triangulation of data. The findings during this research are as follows. This research suggests that both the private and the governmental sector should closely cooperate in the filed of industrial security to strengthen its traditional prevention strategies and reduce opportunities of economic espionage as well. This study finally recognizes both the very importance of institutional development led by the Government in preventing economic espionage attempts and its effectiveness when properly united with effective industrial security programs.

This paper introduces Database security to prevent the rapidly increasing issue of private information leakage. The Database security examined in the paper separates into DB access control area and DB encryption area which further leads the paper to analyze the factors of the two areas and suggest necessary elements for creating stable Database security. In addition, the paper examines previous DB security programs by areas and analyzes pros and cons from the tested result. The experiment indicated that while DB access control presents less degradation and reduced the need to modify the existing DBMS since the access control operates at the end point of the network, DB encryption presented strength in protecting the data from unauthorized access. On the other hand, DB access control is less useful in preventing the attack in advance which leaves the log to enable tracking afterward while DB encryption can only be operated by limited types of Database and causes degradation due to system load and shows higher percentage of failure when creating the system. This paper examines characteristics of Database security areas in order to be used as a reference for institutions or companies seeking stable Database security.
