There are several tasks for legal improvement for governance system in cybersecurity. They are improving legal bases for the roles of the relevant authorities in cybersecurity, consolidating national joint response to cyber accidents, establishing and vitalizing information sharing system, constructing foundation of cybersecurity through industry promotion and manpower development, and acquiring defensive tools by enhancement research an development.

Since President Biden's inauguration, significant cyberattacks have occurred several times in the United States, and cybersecurity was emphasized as a national priority. The U.S. is advancing efforts to strengthen the cybersecurity both domestically and internationally, including with allies. In particular, the Biden administration announced the National Cybersecurity Strategy in March 2023. The National Cybersecurity Strategy is the top guideline of cybersecurity and is the foundation of other cybersecurity policies. And it includes public-privates as well as international policy directions, so it is expected to affect the international order. Meanwhile, In Korea, a new administration was launched in 2022, and the revision of the National Cybersecurity Strategy is necessary. In addition, cooperation between Korea and the U.S. has recently been strengthened, and cybersecurity is being treated as a key agenda in the cooperative relationship. In this paper, we examine the cyber security strategies of the Trump and Biden administration, and analyze how the strategies have changed, their characteristics and implications in qualitative and quantitative terms.

During the recent years, cyber attacks have been increasing both in the private sector and the government. Those include the DDOS cases in 2009, the Blue House cyber attack, bank hackings etc. Cyber threats are becoming increasingly serious. However, there is no basic law related to cyber security at present, and regulations related to cyber security are scattered in various domestic laws. This can lead to confusion in the application of the law and difficult to grasp the regulations related to cyber security. In order to overcome this situation, the bill on the prevention and countermeasures against cyber crisis was initiated in 2006, but it has been abrogated. Since then, it has been repeatedly proposed, but it has been abrogated repeatedly due to the overlapping of existing laws and concerns about infringement of personal information. The most recent initiative was the National Cyber Security Act, which was initiated by the government in January 2017. The act focuses on resolving the absence of a basic law related to cyber security, strengthening its responsiveness in the event of a cyber security crisis, and fostering security strength. Therefore, this study seeks to contribute to the establishment of National Cyber Security legislation as a basic law of cyber security by examining the necessity of National Cyber Security legislation through comparative legal analysis with existing domestic laws related to cyber security and suggesting policy implications.

사이버 공간이라는 새로운 국가 영역이 창조되었고, 고 영역에서의 각종활동이 국내는 물론 국제사회의 경쟁력에서 가장 중요한 국가 영역이 되고 있다. 반면에 사이버 공간에서의 침해사고 내지는 공격행위가 사이버 공간에서의 활동을 방해하고 사회의 혼란을 초래할 뿐 아니라 사이버 공간을 통해 국가 안보를 위협하는 테러, 정보전 양상이 뚜렷하게 증가하고 있다. 또 민주화와 인터넷의 개방 구조로 개인과 기업, 조직의 정보보호와 기밀 보호의 요구가 높아지고 있다. 이를 보호하고 국가 안보를 강화하는 사이버 공간의 안보체계를 제시한다.

본 논문에서는 전 세계적으로 사이버공간에서 발생하는 위협 등에 대한 대응으로 다각적인 방식에서의 사이버공간 내 행위에 대한 제재와 통제에 대한 법제변화에 대한 연구를 토대로 최근 사회주의체제 국가들에서의 적극적인 사이버공간 내 규제를 위한 입법동향을 비교·분석하고 있다. 더불어 현재 사이버안보법, 사이버기본법 등 사이버공간상 보안과 안보에 연계된 관련 입법안들이 사회적으로 논의가 지속되고 있는 상황에서 개인정보 등 헌법상 가치를 보호함과 동시에 국가차원의 사전적 방어를 위한 방안으로 '사이버 아이언돔(가칭)' 구축과 이를 위한 제도화를 제안하고 있다.

Cyber attacks threaten the national security in this day and age. The government of the Republic of Korea recently released the National Cyber Security Comprehensive Countermeasures as a new cybersecurity policy. But current legal system cannot provide legal basis for the implementation of such measures. The current legal system related to cybersecurity is applied in each sector, thus the governance system in cybersecurity is separate. So there are many problems in the governance system in cybersecurity. To solve these problems fundamentally, it is righter to make a new cybersecurity law than to revise existing laws. Meanwhile, lawmakers proposed some bills in Congress to strengthen the cybersecurity in Korea in 2013. It will increase possibility of legislation of cybersecurity act to make a law through the analysis of these bills and to derive the essential elements from those. and to reflect these in the new cybersecurity act.
