TY - JOUR T1 - A Study on How to Secure Interoperability of Information Assurance Based on K-RMF AU - Park, Jong-Chool AU - Choi, Yong-Hoon JO - The Journal of Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences PY - 2022 DA - 2022/1/15 DO - 10.7840/kics.2022.47.4.671 KW - Interoperability KW - Information Assurance KW - Information Security KW - Cyber Security KW - K-RMF AB - Information security in terms of interoperability is evaluated to ensure seamless information exchange between various systems, such as combined and joint C4I systems, and the integrity of desired information. In addition, with the increase of cyber threats worldwide, the US military mentioned the application of RMF in the Korea-US linkage system, and K-RMF was developed. RMF replaced the concept of information protection and information assurance with the concept of cyber security to strengthen cyber security. Therefore, it is necessary to replace the concept of information security evaluation in terms of interoperability with information assurance or cyber security. This paper identifies items that require re-verification in terms of interoperability and redundancy between K-RMF evaluation items and existing interoperability information security evaluation items and suggested way to secure interoperability of information assurance based on K-RMF.
