「정보통신망법」 개정안에 대한 입법정책 - 침해사고와 관련하여 -

There are some limitations to protect computer users and prevent computer security incident. Because our law focuses on protection for network or information․communications. So we have to revise the law and make a clause to prepare for serious computer security incidents just like DDos (distributed denial of service) attack. A revision should contain 5 clauses to prepare for those incidents. First of all, a clause about request for access to a PC infected by malignant code should set up. Because it is important to promptly do causual analysis and nonproliferation of incidents. Second, it is requested for a system operator to not only carry out a regular inspection but also immediately eliminate malignant code when he found that in his website. If he did not, he might be imposed a penalty following a clause. Third, there should be a clause of an order as emergency action. When a accident in the internet happens, internet service providers(ISP) should close up routes to spread of the accident(Domain, IP address, Port number, etc.). Fourth, to prevent the spread of immediate damages, a PC infected by malignant code is limited to access. Therefore an order to limited to access is required. At the end of these, it is essential to send incidents's information to Korea Communications Commission and Korea Internet & Security Agency. Because these organizations can analyze causes of incidents and to make a preparation for happening same incidents.
