The purpose of this study was to assess the current status of cyber security at the Busan Port container terminal and derive strengthening factors through exploratory research. In recent years, the maritime industry has actively adopted Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies, resulting in changes in the form of ports, such as automated and smart terminals. While these changes have brought positive improvements in port efficiency, they have also increased the potential for cyber security incidents and threats, including information leakage through cargo handling equipment and ransomware attacks leading to terminal operations disruption. Especially in the case of ports, cyber security threats can have not only local effects within the port but also physical damage and implications for national security. However, despite the growing cyber security threats within ports, research related to domestic port cyber security remains limited. Therefore, this study aimed to identify factors for enhancing cyber security in ports and derive future enhancement strategies. The study conducted an analysis focusing on the Busan Port container terminal, which is one of the leading ports in South Korea actively adopting Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies, and conducted a survey of stakeholders in the Busan Port container terminal. Subsequently, exploratory factor analysis was used to derive strengthening factors. This study holds significance in providing directions for enhancing cyber security in domestic container ports in the future.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of on-board medical education for crew and medical managers. The satisfaction of the crew and the medical managers after undergoing the medical education was selected as a measure of effectiveness. The data collection period extended from October 2015 to March 2018 for about 2 years and 6 months, and a total of 310 questionnaires were collected and sampled. However, in this study, regression analysis was performed with only 96 samples because of the addition and modification of questionnaire items in the regression analysis. This study investigated the effect of on-board medical educational assistance (trauma education, nursing care, CPR, and overall educational content) and control variables (total boarding career, age, final education, and education year) on satisfaction. The important findings were as follows: i) Higher the degree of trauma education, higher was the satisfaction, ii) higher the degree of overall educational content, higher was the satisfaction, iii) higher the degree of CPR education, higher was the satisfaction, iv) increased total boarding career reduced the satisfaction level, v) and higher the final education, higher was the satisfaction.
