  • The expanded application of digital controls has raised the issue of cyber security for nuclear facilities. To cope with this, the cyber security technical standard RS-015 for Korean nuclear facilities requires nuclear system developers to apply security functions, analyze known vulnerabilities, and test and evaluate security functions. This requires the development of procedures and methods for testing the suitability of security functions in accordance with the nuclear cyber security technical standards. This study derived the security requirements required at the device level by classifying the details of the technical, operational and administrative security controls of RS-015 and developed procedures and methods to test whether the security functions implemented in the device meet the security requirements. This paper describes the process for developing security function compliance test procedures and methods and presents the developed test cases.

  • One of the most important part in next generation VoIP is security management. When we develop a protocol stack based on SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), it is necessary to develop test scenario, test environment, adaptation test technology for security test of the system. In this paper, we design and implement security test environment and test program for SIP. This system also can be used as a fundamental system when someone develop a communication system based on SIP.

  • This study discusses some topics of Security License System and Security Training System in Japan. Especially, the Security License must be very influence that the growth of security industry. And it's true that a few enlightened approach to cooperation between police and private security has already begun to take place in some divisions. The most important thing of the License Test System in Japan is the method of test rule and test section. Then the training systems of the security agent have been very impressive rule and the system for security agent. Today, the market of the security industry in Korea have been going to develop and extend to the future industry. The assignments that are leaved to security industry in Korea must be that the improvement of the License & Training System of Security Agent in Korea should be made effort by the security industry and the public section that looks like the police.

  • In 2004, Boneh et.al. proposed a public key encryption with keyword search (PEKS) scheme which enables a server to test whether a keyword used in generating a ciphertext by a sender is identical to a keyword used in generating a query by a receiver or not. Yang et. al. proposed a probabilistic public key encryption with equality test (PEET) scheme which enables to test whether one message of ciphertext generated by one public key is identical to the other message generated by the other public key or not. If the message is replaced to a keyword, PEET is not secure against keyword guessing attacks and does not satisfy IND-CP A security which is generally considered in searchable encryption schemes. In this paper, we propose a public key encryption with equality test with designated tester (dPEET) which is secure against keyword guessing attacks and achieves IND-CPA security.

  • Packet filtering is to filter out potentially malicious network packets. In order to test a packet filtering function we should verify whether security policies are performed correctly as intended. However there are few existing tools to test the function. Besides, they need user participation when generating test cases or deciding test results. Many security administrators have a burden to test systematically new security policies when they establish new policies or modify the existing ones. To mitigate the burdens we suggest a new test method with minimal user articipation. Our tool automates generation steps of the test cases and the test oracles, respectively. By using the test oracles generated automatically, deciding test results is possible without user intervention. Our method realizes an automatic testing in three phases; test preparation phase, test execution, and test evaluation. As a result it may enhance confidence of test activities more highly. This paper describes the design and implementation of our test method and tool.

  • Security defects occurring within corporate networks and the Internet may be abused by internal or external malicious attackers. Such abuses cause a financial toll through expenditures on additional human resources, the impact of down-time as problems are fixed, as well as damage from divulging corporate informational assets. Hence, through the precise analysis of the possible defects in network security and the identification of risks, preventative policy should be established to ensure maximum security. This report reviews methodologies that calculate and analyze levels of network security in order to resolve these problems, and generates appropriate test steps, test methods, and test items.

  • The purpose of this paper is to design Conformance Test Suite for BSP(Biometric Service Provider) based on BioAPI(Biometric Application Programming Interface) v2.0. The proposed BioAPI Conformance Test Suite enables users to test BSP with framework independently. A test scheduling tool has been embodied to use Test Assertion in the form of XML. In order to demonstrate the performance of the Conformance Test Suite, the experiment was performed by using both verification and identification BSPs. As the results of this experiment, we were able to determinate whether BSPs based on BioAPI v2.0 satisfied standard requirements or not.

  • As a form of industrial control systems (ICS), nuclear instrumentation and control (I&C) systems have been digitalized increasingly. This has raised in turn cyber security concerns. Cyber security for ICS is important because cyber-attacks against ICS can cause not only equipment damage and loss of production but also personal and public safety hazards unlike in general IT environments. Numerous risk analyses have been carried out to enhance the safety of ICS and recently, many studies related to the cyber security of ICS are being conducted. Many existing risk analyses and cyber security studies have considered safety and cyber security separately. However, both safety and cyber security perspectives should be considered when analyzing risks for complex and critical ICS facilities such as nuclear power plants (NPPs). In this paper, the STPA-SafeSec methodology is selected to consider both safety and security perspectives when performing a risk analysis for NPPs in order to assess impacts on the safety by cyber-attacks against the digital I&C systems. The STPA-SafeSec methodology was applied to a test-bed system that simulates a condensate water (CD) system in an NPP. The process of the application up to the development of mitigation strategies is described in detail.

  • Survivability is a necessary property of network system in disturbed environment. Recovery ability is a key actor of survivability. This paper concludes network survivability into a novel composite metric, i.e. Network Recovery Degree (NRD). In order to measure this metric in quantity, a concept of Source-Destination Pair (SD Pair), is created to abstract end-to-end activity based on end nodes in network, and the quality of SD Pair is also used to describe network performance, such as connectivity, quality of service, link degree, and so on. After that, a Survivability Test method in large scale Network based on SD pairs, called STNSD, is provided. How to select SD Pairs effectively in large scale network is also provided. We set up simulation environment to validate the test method in a severe destroy scenario and evaluate the method scalability in different large scale network scenarios. Experiment and analysis shows that the metric NRD correctly reflects the effort of different survivability strategy, and the proposed test method STNSD has good scalability and can be used to test and evaluate quantitative survivability in large scale network.
