Cyberwarfare: South Korea's Military Lowers Cyber Alert Level to Normal

Tag: cyber, Alert, Cyberwarfare, korea, security

The South Korean military has lowered its cyber alert level back to normal, about a week after raising one notch following Kim Jong-il's death.

An official from the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff says the information operations condition, "or Infocon," has been lowered to Level 5 which is referred to as the peacetime level.

The military says it has not detected any evidence of North Korean cyber terrorism in the past week and do not expect any such threats in the future.
However, the South Korean Army will continue to maintain its heightened "defense" alert which was raised after news of Kim's death last week.

The Center for Education and Research in Information Assurance and Security (CERIAS) is currently viewed as one of the world’s leading centers for research and education in areas of information security that are crucial to the protection of critical computing and communication infrastructure.

CERIAS is unique among such national centers in its multidisciplinary approach to the problems, ranging from purely technical issues (e.g., intrusion detection, network security, etc) to ethical, legal, educational, communicational, linguistic, and economic issues, and the subtle interactions and dependencies among them.
