Instrumentation and control systems in nuclear power plants have been digitalized for the purpose of maintenance and precise operation. This digitalization, however, brings out issues related to cyber security. In the most recent past, international standard organizations, regulatory institutes, and research institutes have performed a number of studies addressing these systems cyber security.. In order to provide information helpful to the system designers in their application of cyber security for the systems, this paper presents methods and considerations to define attack vectors in a target system, to review and select the requirements in the Regulatory Guide 5.71, and to integrate the results to identify applicable technical security control requirements. In this study, attack vectors are analyzed through the vulnerability analyses and penetration tests with a simplified safety system, and the elements of critical digital assets acting as attack vectors are identified. Among the security control requirements listed in Appendices B and C to Regulatory Guide 5.71, those that should be implemented into the systems are selected and classified in groups of technical security control requirements using the results of the attack vector analysis. For the attack vector elements of critical digital assets, all the technical security control requirements are evaluated to determine whether they are applicable and effective, and considerations in this evaluation are also discussed. The technical security control requirements in three important categories of access control, monitoring and logging, and encryption are derived and grouped according to the elements of attack vectors as results for the sample safety system.

An overall responding security-centered framework is necessary required for infringement accidents, failures, and cyber threats. On the other hand, the correspondence structures of existing administrative, technical, physical security have weakness in a system responding to complex attacks because each step is performed independently. This study will recognize all internal and external users as a potentially threatening element. To perform connectivity analysis regarding an action, an intelligent convergence security framework and road map is suggested. A suggested convergence security framework was constructed to be independent of an automatic framework, such as the conventional single solution for the priority defense system of APT of the latest attack type, which makes continuous reputational attacks to achieve its goals. This study suggested the next generation convergence security framework to have preemptive responses, possibly against an APT attack, consisting of the following five hierarchical layers: domain security, domain connection, action visibility, action control, and convergence correspondence. In the domain, the connection layer suggests a security instruction and direction in the domains of administrative, physical and technical security. The domain security layer has consistency of status information among the security domain. A visibility layer of an intelligent attack action consists of data gathering, comparison and decision cycle. The action control layer is a layer that controls the visibility action. Finally, the convergence corresponding layer suggests a corresponding system of before and after an APT attack. The administrative security domain had a security design based on organization, rule, process, and paper information. The physical security domain is designed to separate into a control layer and facility according to the threats of the control impossible and control possible. Each domain action executes visible and control steps, and is designed to have flexibility regarding security environmental changes. In this study, the framework to address an APT attack and load map will be used as an infrastructure corresponding to the next generation security.

APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) attack is a dangerous, targeted attack form with clear targets. APT attack campaigns have huge consequences. Therefore, the problem of researching and developing the APT attack detection solution is very urgent and necessary nowadays. On the other hand, no matter how advanced the APT attack, it has clear processes and lifecycles. Taking advantage of this point, security experts recommend that could develop APT attack detection solutions for each of their life cycles and processes. In APT attacks, hackers often use phishing techniques to perform attacks and steal data. If this attack and phishing phase is detected, the entire APT attack campaign will be crash. Therefore, it is necessary to research and deploy technology and solutions that could detect early the APT attack when it is in the stages of attacking and stealing data. This paper proposes an APT attack detection framework based on the Network traffic analysis technique using open-source tools and deep learning models. This research focuses on analyzing Network traffic into different components, then finds ways to extract abnormal behaviors on those components, and finally uses deep learning algorithms to classify Network traffic based on the extracted abnormal behaviors. The abnormal behavior analysis process is presented in detail in section III.A of the paper. The APT attack detection method based on Network traffic is presented in section III.B of this paper. Finally, the experimental process of the proposal is performed in section IV of the paper.

최근 운항되고 있는 선박은 전자해도시스템 및 자동위치식별장치 등 다양한 IT, OT 시스템이 사용되고 있어 선박건조와 항해 환경까지 고려한 보안 요소가 요구된다. 하지만, 선박과 조선 ICT 기자재 산업에 관한 사이버보안 연구는 아직 부족한 현실이며, 위협 모델링을 통한 체계적인 방법론이 부족하다. 본 논문에서는 선박 시스템에 접근하는 이해관계자를 고려하여 Data Flow Diagram을 수립하였다. 선박 시스템들의 보안 취약점과 사례들을 수집한 Attack Library를 기반으로 STRIDE 방법론과 Attack Tree를 활용한 위협 모델링을 통해 선박에서 발생 가능한 위협을 식별하고 선박 사이버보안 대책을 제시하고자 한다.

This paper introduces a new type of collision attack on first-order masked Advanced Encryption Standards. This attack is a known-plaintext attack, while the existing collision attacks are chosen-plaintext attacks. In addition, our method requires significantly fewer power measurements than any second-order differential power analysis or existing collision attacks.

본 논문에서는 5G 네트워크에서 Null 보안 알고리즘 (Null Security Algorithm)을 악용한 IP 스푸핑 공격 (IP Spoofing Attack)의 실현 가능성을 3GPP 표준 규격에 근거하여 분석한다. 3GPP 표준 규격에 따르면, 초기 Registration Request 메시지는 암호화 및 무결성 보호를 받지 못한다. IP 스푸핑 공격은 피해자 UE (User Equipment)의 초기 Registration Request 메시지의 내용을 악의적인 gNB (next generation Node B)가 수정한 뒤 AMF (Access and Mobility Management Function)에게 전송할 수 있다는 취약점을 활용하는 공격이다. 공격이 성공하면, 피해자 UE는 5G 네트워크에서 연결이 끊어지고 악의적인 UE가 인터넷 서비스를 사용하지만 5G 사업자는 피해자 UE에게 요금을 청구한다. 본 논문에서는 IP 스푸핑 공격을 구성하는 각각의 시그널링 메시지가 3GPP Rel-17 표준 규격에서 허용되는 것인지 여부를 분석함으로써 IP 스푸핑 공격의 실현 가능성을 분석한다. 분석 결과, 3GPP Rel-17 표준 규격에 따라 구현된 5G 시스템에서 IP 스푸핑 공격은 실현 불가능한 공격으로 판단된다.

From an information security perspective, protecting sensitive data requires utilizing algorithms which resist theoretical attacks. However, treating an algorithm in a purely mathematical fashion or in other words abstracting away from its physical (hardware or software) implementation opens the door to various real-world security threats. In the modern age of electronics, cryptanalysis attempts to reveal secret information based on cryptosystem physical properties, rather than exploiting the theoretical weaknesses in the implemented cryptographic algorithm. The correlation power attack (CPA) is a Side-Channel Analysis attack used to reveal sensitive information based on the power leakages of a device. In this paper, we present a power Hacking technique to demonstrate how a power analysis can be exploited to reveal the secret information in AES crypto-core. In the proposed case study, we explain the main techniques that can break the security of the considered crypto-core by using CPA attack. Using two cryptographic devices, FPGA and 8051 microcontrollers, the experimental attack procedure shows that the AES hardware implementation has better resistance against power attack compared to the software one. On the other hand, we remark that the efficiency of CPA attack depends statistically on the implementation and the power model used for the power prediction.
