Abstract
The Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act(CISA) of 2015, enacted in December 2015, is one of the greatest achievements of cybersecurity legislation in the United States. The promotion of cybersecurity information sharing is one of the tasks to improve cybersecurity governance in Korea. So it is an important issue to be addressed in cybersecurity legislation in Korea in the near future. CISA has many implications for cybersecurity legislation in Korea. Nevertheless, it is difficult to find preceding research that explain the content of CISA and study its normative meaning in Korea. Therefore, in this paper, the contents of the CISA is identified and its normative meaning and implication is found in five categories: definition of terms, establishment of information sharing procedures and conditions, promotion of voluntary information sharing by the private sector, checks on the executive branch and report to the Congress, and other matters. CISA facilitates information sharing based on willingness, while eliminating the side effects that may arise in the information sharing process. It is necessary to appropriately apply the good points of CISA to the cybersecurity legal system in Korea.
