  • Scientific and technological progress is also fundamental to the evolving merchant shipping industry, both in terms of the size and speed of modern ships and in the level of their technical capabilities. While the freight performance of ships is growing, the number of crew on board is steadily decreasing, as more work processes are being automated through the implementation of information technologies, including ship management systems. Although there have been repeated appeals from international maritime organizations to focus on building effective maritime security defenses against cyber attacks, the problems have remained unresolved. Owners of shipping companies do not disclose information about cyberattack attempts or incidents against them due to fear of commercial losses or consequences, such as loss of image, customer and insurance claims, and investigations by independent international organizations and government agencies. Issues of cybersecurity of control systems in the world today have gained importance, due to the fact that existing threats concern not only the security of technical means and devices, but also issues of environmental safety and safety of life at sea. The article examines the implementation of cyber risk management in the shipping industry, providing recommendations for the safe ship operation and its systems in order to improve vulnerability to external threats related to cyberattacks, and to ensure the safety and security of such a technical object as a seagoing ship.

  • With rapid social change, by culminating the social hazards and the safety problems about it are on the increase too. According to the needs for the safety the demand of the private guard & security provided the safety and security service against danger is also increasing. As the need for the safety is increasing, so recently the private guard & security industry is extended. Therefore the purpose of this study is to grasp and carry out researches into the legal structure on the Security contract, is to analyze the formation of contract and find out the ensuing problem in order to prevent or settle the dispute which is apt to occur between the specific client and the security companies. In order to minimize the dispute going with security relationship in particular, it is necessary that one should write down the agreed contents as the document explicitly to make a security contract with the parties. Hereupon in the plan which standardizes the security contract with each parties autonomously, it is suggested that this study should present the model of Dispute Resolution Clause Especially it is the best means that it is amicable consultation or negotiation as the effective way of settlement methods of private dispute arising from the concerned parties. In inevitable case it recommends the method which solves the dispute by means of an arbitration than litigation at administration of justice(in terms of jurisdiction). If the parties wish to settle the disputes by arbitration, they must come to an arbitration agreement in the form of a arbitration clause in the security contract. After the test and evaluation through application utilizing it in actual security field, the security standard contract regulates about it and this terms should widely apply a individual case to whole industry.

  • Comparative analysis to secure safety of Blockchain Many investors have invested in virtual currency such as bit coins as a new investment due to increased popularity of virtual currency around the world. Also, virtual currency such as bit coin has a security technology and it has been relatively proved. popularity of virtual currency is rising as a new investment alternative because of this reason. This paper focused on the block chain's transparency and security of distributed ledger technology, which is relatively safe without third party's intervention. Many governments and companies around the world are developing and working on block chain technological development to introduce due to these reasons However, there are some suggestion that block chain has minor risks to its security. In this paper, it will examine security vulnerabilities from importance of security of Blockchain which relates to transactions of Bitcoin which stored by governments and companies around the world. This paper will propose measure which will improve safety and efficiency of Blockchain technology such as the existing Blockchain method, Blockchain proposal, traceability and awareness about hacking.

  • In the pandemic crisis, many governments implemented harsh interventions that might contradict democratic values and civil liberties. In Taiwan, the debate over whether or not to reveal personal information of infected persons to limit the coronavirus's spread poses the democratic dilemma between public health and civil liberties. This study examines whether and explains how Taiwan's people respond to the choice between individual privacy and collective security. We used survey data gathered in May 2020 to show that, first, the democratic values did not deter the pursuit of collective safety at the cost of civil liberty; rather, people with higher social trust were more likely to give up their civil liberties in exchange for public safety. Second, people who support democratic values and pursue collective security tend to avoid violating privacy by opposing the release of personal information. This study proves that democratic values do not necessarily threaten collective safety and that the pursuit of common good can co-exist with personal privacy.

  • The emergence of the Smart Grid is an integrated solution for the next generation power system that combines IT technology in the power system to create optimal energy utilization and various services. However, these convergence technologies (power systems and information communications) are not only improving the related technologies but also producing various problems especially exposure to cyber risk. In particular, the intelligent power grid has security vulnerabilities through real-time information sharing among various organically linked systems, and it is more complicated than the cyber risk problem in the existing IT field and is directly connected to national disaster accidents. Therefore, in order to construct and operate a more stable smart grid, this paper analyzes the system of power system control system in Korea, and proposes a cyber security element definition and a countermeasure establishment method of power monitoring & control systems based on security standards of smart grid (No. SPS-SGSF-121-1-1).

  • Terrorist organizations that take advantage of the occasion of international events are changing from targeting specified people to attacking general public, raising the anxiety of the audience and participating countries. Therefore, the host country intends to improve its status as the host by ensuring safety and crisis management at any cost. As a country with a wealth of experience of hosting international events, Korea takes the burden of the security at Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. Consequently, to successfully host this winter Olympics, the organizing committee should bear in mind that Korea is no longer a safe country regarding terrorist attacks and take countermeasures against various crimes and terrorism that may arise during the Winter Olympic Games. This study overviews various measures as follows. First, the change of counter-terrorism strategy is necessary. Second, the safety entity and safety measures for Pyeongchang Olympic Games should be established. Third, private security companies should be actively utilized. Fourth, the safety management training for private security and safety personnel should be strengthened. Lastly, it is necessary to establish a rapid and organic preemptive safety management system to cope with safety and crisis effectively at Pyeongchang Winter Olympics and other international events that will be held in the future.

  • 최근 웹 서비스 환경에서 공격자가 자신의 근원지를 은닉하기 위하여 여러 단계의 경유지를 거쳐 공격을 시도하는 사례가 증가하고 있으며, 이에 대한 법률적 증거 확보 및 능동적인 대처를 위하여 웹 어플리케이션에서의 역추적 기술이 필요하다. 현재 자바 애플릿이나 ActiveX, 플러그인, 웹 로그 등을 이용한 응용 계층의 추적 기술이 개발되고 있지만, 웹 클라이언트에 의하여 차단될 가능성이 높고, 플러그인 종류 및 호환되지 않는 운영 환경 등 제약조건으로 인하여 사용에 제한이 있다. 본 논문에서는 액션 스크립트를 이용한 웹 클라이언트 모니터링 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 웹 클라이언트가 실행을 인식하지 못하고 수행되어 웹 클라이언트에 의한 차단을 막을 수 있고, 다양한 운영 환경에서 사용이 가능하다.

  • 컴퓨터의 주변 장치 중 하나인 마우스는 모니터의 2차원 평면에서 움직임을 인식하여 커서를 움직이는 입력 장치이며, 응용 프로그램을 편리하게 사용하고 다양한 편집을 가능하게 한다. 기존의 아이디/비밀번호 기반 인증 방법에서는 키보드 데이터가 노출되는 취약점이 존재하여 이미지 기반의 마우스 입력을 이용한 새로운 인증 방법이 등장하였지만, 이미지 기반 인증의 취약점 분석 및 실증에 대한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 마이크로소프트 운영체제에서 제공하는 마우스 위치 추출 API인 GetCursorPos() 함수를 이용하여 마우스 데이터의 노출 가능성을 검증함으로써 취약점을 분석한다.
