  • As the IT environment becomes more sophisticated, various threats and their associated serious risks are increasing. Threats such as DDoS attacks, malware, worms, and APT attacks can be a very serious risk to enterprises and must be efficiently managed in a timely manner. Therefore, the government has designated the important system as the main information communication infrastructure in consideration of the impact on the national security and the economic society according to the 'Information and Communication Infrastructure Protection Act', which, in particular, protects the main information communication infrastructure from cyber infringement. In addition, it conducts management supervision such as analysis and evaluation of vulnerability, establishment of protection measures, implementation of protection measures, and distribution of technology guides. Even now, security consulting is proceeding on the basis of 'Guidance for Evaluation of Technical Vulnerability Analysis of Major IT Infrastructure Facilities'. There are neglected inspection items in the applied items, and the vulnerability of APT attack, malicious code, and risk are present issues that are neglected. In order to eliminate the actual security risk, the security manager has arranged the inspection and ordered the special company. In other words, it is difficult to check against current hacking or vulnerability through current system vulnerability checking method. In this paper, we propose an efficient method for extracting diagnostic data regarding the necessity of upgrading system vulnerability check, a check item that does not reflect recent trends, a technical check case for latest intrusion technique, a related study on security threats and requirements. Based on this, we investigate the security vulnerability management system and vulnerability list of domestic and foreign countries, propose effective security vulnerability management system, and propose further study to improve overseas vulnerability diagnosis items so that they can be related to domestic vulnerability items.

  • As the number of systems increases and the network size increases, automated attack prediction systems are urgently needed to respond to cyber attacks. In this study, we developed four types of information gathering sensors for collecting asset and vulnerability information, and developed technology to automatically generate attack graphs and predict attack targets. To improve performance, the attack graph generation method is divided into the reachability calculation process and the vulnerability assignment process. It always keeps up to date by starting calculations whenever asset and vulnerability information changes. In order to improve the accuracy of the attack target prediction, the degree of asset risk and the degree of asset reference are reflected. We refer to CVSS(Common Vulnerability Scoring System) for asset risk, and Google's PageRank algorithm for asset reference. The results of attack target prediction is displayed on the web screen and CyCOP(Cyber Common Operation Picture) to help both analysts and decision makers.

  • Recently, due to a series of DDoS attacks, government agencies have enhanced security measures and business-related legislation. However, service attack and large network violations or accidents are most likely to occur repeatedly in the near future. In order to prevent this problem, researches must be conducted to predict the vulnerability in advance. The existing research methods do not state the specific data used for the base of the prediction, making the method more complex and imprecise. Therefore this study was conducted using the vulnerability data used for the basis of machine learning technology prediction, which were retrieved from a reputable organization. Also, the study suggested ways to predict the future vulnerabilities based on the weaknesses found in prior methods, and certified the efficiency using experiments.

  • OTP(One Time Password) is a user authentication using secure mechanism to authenticate each other in a way to generate a password, an attacker could intercept the password to masquerade as legitimate users is a way to prevent attacks. The OTP can be implemented as H/W or S/W. Token and card type OTP, implemented as H/W, is difficult to popularize because of having problem with deployment and usability. As a way to replace it implemented as S/W on Mobile or PC is introduced. However, S/W products can be target of malicious attacks if S/W products have vulnerability of implementation. In fact, FSA said the OTP implemented on a mobile have vulnerability of implementation. However, the OTP implemented on a PC have no case about analysis of vulnerability. So, in this paper derive security review and vulnerabilities analysis of implemented on a PC.

  • 6LoWPAN based on IEEE 802.15.4 is a realistic standard platform for various Internet of Things (IoT) applications. To bootstrap the LoWPAN (Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network), each device must perform 6LoWPAN-ND address registration to assign a unique IPv6 address. Without adequate security mechanisms, 6LoWPAN-ND is vulnerable to a variety of security attacks including corrupted node attacks. Several security mechanisms have been proposed as a supplement to the vulnerability, but the vulnerability exists because it relies solely on IEEE 802.15.4 hop-by-hop security. In this paper, we propose and analyze a vulnerability of 6LoWPAN-ND address registration and a new security mechanism suitable for preventing the attack of damaged node. It also shows that the proposed security mechanism is compatible with the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard and is more efficient than the mechanism proposed in the IETF 6 lo WG.

  • In recent years, new and variant hacking of binary codes has increased, and the limitations of techniques for detecting malicious codes in source programs and defending against attacks are often exposed. Advanced software security vulnerability detection technology using machine learning and deep learning technology for binary code and defense and response capabilities against attacks are required. In this paper, we propose a malware clustering method that groups malware based on the characteristics of the taint information after entering dynamic taint information by tracing the execution path of binary code. Malware vulnerability detection was applied to a three-layered Few-shot learning model, and F1-scores were calculated for each layer's CPU and GPU. We obtained 97~98% performance in the learning process and 80~81% detection performance in the test process.

  • Due to a recent rise in use of a wireless keyboard and mouse, attacks which take user's input information or control user's computer remotely exploiting the physical vulnerability in the wireless communication have been reported. Especially, MouseJack, announced by Bastille Network, attacks 2.4 GHz wireless keyboards and mice through exploiting vulnerability of each manufacturer's receiver. Unlike other attacks that have been revealed, this allows to attack AES wireless keyboards. Nonetheless, there is only a brief overview of the attack but no detailed information on this attacking method. Therefore, in this paper we will analyze the Microsoft 2.4 GHz wireless mouse packet and propose a way to set the packet configuration for HID packet injection simulating a wireless mouse. We also develop a system with 2.4 GHz AES wireless keyboard HID packet injection using the proposed packet and demonstrate via experiment that HID packet injection is possible through the system we built.
