Over 400 Participants Attend Workshop Focused on National Infrastructure and Maritime Vessel Cybersecurity
"The power grid control system is the most critical component of national infrastructure," stated Professor Seo Jeong-taek , Chairman of the CPS Security Research Society. Recently, the President's Office announced a framework for strategic cybersecurity cooperation with the United States and convened a meeting with presidents of power-related public companies, emphasizing the importance of inspecting the EMS system of the power exchange. "Control system security, the foundation of infrastructure, has become a national security priority. The CPS Security Workshop has been addressing this issue and developing countermeasures across twelve sessions."
"This year's presentations on maritime vessel cybersecurity generated significant interest. The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries is strengthening cybersecurity measures by developing maritime vessel security guidelines. Both commercial ships and naval vessels face increasing cyber attacks, making this a key focus at the CPS Security Workshop. Hanwha Life Insurance also presented cyber insurance solutions from a risk management perspective, addressing growing cyber threats in operational technology (OT) environments. The CPS Security Workshop will continue expanding its research to encompass cybersecurity across various industries beyond infrastructure control systems."
Key presentations this year included: analysis of recent maritime cyber threat trends (Jo Yong-hyun, DSLab) introduction to cybersecurity inspection methodologies for ship OT equipment (Park Kae-myung, Korean Register of Shipping) software reverse engineering and deobfuscation techniques (Kang Dong-ho, Korea Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute) configuration of monitoring systems for real-time control network traffic anomaly detection (Yoo Jong-won, Clarity Korea) anomaly detection technologies for control system security visibility (Byung-gil Min, National Security Technology Research Institute) network packet analysis methodologies for malicious behavior detection (Kwon Tae-woong, Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information) current status and development plans for domestic security incident response (Lee Dong-yeon , Korea Internet & Security Agency) and active hybrid architecture for addressing OT security challenges (Hwang Jae-hoon, Anlab).
