  • In the growing digitalized world, the European Union implemented the General Data Protection Regulation(GDPR) to establish a comprehensive data protection framework across member states. Given the constitutional roots of GDPR, the EU's regulatory approach is different than other data protection regimes. The new regulation has strengthened individual rights to data protection, but it also introduced several obligations for businesses that collect and process personal data. We review the existing literature on privacy, particularly GDPR, from a policy perspective. The evidence outlines data regulation's effects on competition, innovation, marketing activities, and cross-border data flows. The discussion highlights the tradeoffs between increased regulation of data protection and its effects on the market.

  • The adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 transformed approaches and concepts to the implementation of the personal data protection mechanism in the European Union. Within the EU, almost all countries have adapted a new protection mechanism, which requires a study of the specifics of its use. The article intends to assess the legal provisions of the current mechanism of personal data protection in the EU. The author studied the mechanism of personal data protection under the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) based on the concept of contextual integrity and analysis of EU legislation on personal data protection. The scientific publications for 2016-2020 were reviewed for the formation of ideas of a new personal data protection mechanism in the EU, informative and transparent analysis of legal provisions. The article notes that the personal data privacy and protection is increasing, there is an ongoing unification of the legal status of personal data protection and the formation of a digital market for dissemination, exchange, control, and supervision of data. Cross-border cooperation is part of the personal data protection mechanism. The author proved that the GDPR has changed approach to personal data protection: the emphasis is now shifting to the formation of a digital market, where the EU's role in ensuring regulation is crucial. The article identifies the emergence of a new protectionist legal system and strengthening of legal provisions regarding privacy. This legal system needs unification and harmonization in accordance with national legislation, is territorially fragmented and differentiated within the EU.

  • EU의 GDPR(General Data Protection Regulation) 발효로 인해 유럽국가의 개인 정보 데이터를 활용하는 다국적 기업들이 규정에 맞는 데이터 보호정책을 수립하고 보안 투자를 강화하고 있다. 그러나 대다수의 기업들은 해커 등에 의한 사이버 보안을 위해서는 천문학적인 투자를 하고 있지만 기업 내 많은 직원들에 의한 실수나 고의에 의한 개인 정보 유출 방지에 대해서는 대처를 하고 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 디지털 포렌식 기반의 앤드 포인트 실시간 모니터링 및 인간 행위 분석을 통한 앤드 포인트 개인 정보 보호 기능을 제공하여 기존의 사이버 보안에 국한된 통합 보안 관제의 효율성을 높이는 방안을 제안한다.

  • In this study, we analyzed the privacy policies of 50 Android applications that are on the top chart in EU members to present the methods for enhancing transparency based on GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). Based on the guidelines in relation to transparency stipulated in WP29, this study extracted factors of transparency in order to ensure transparency of privacy data processing and carried out the verification procedures for each factor. The results revealed that the privacy policies provided in Google Play Store and applications need to be matched, the descriptions of the privacy policies need to be written in clear and plain language for readers to understand easily. and that it is necessary to provide information quickly and improve the descriptions of information which the data controller discloses. The research findings of this study could be used as a preliminary data for proactive responses to the EU's GDPR by substantially complying with the transparency of GDPR.

  • Blockchain technology can provide a high level security based on a decentralized distributed ledger and consensus-based structure. In order to increase the utilization of blockchain technology, it is necessary to find a way to use it in fields that require personal data processing such as health care and e-commerce. To achieve this goal, the blockchain based system should be able to comply with data privacy regulations represented by European Union(EU)'s GDPR(General Data Protection Regulation). However, because of the properties of the blockchain like the immutability and decentralized recorded data, it is difficult to technically implement the requirements of the existing privacy regulations on the blockchain. In this paper, we propose a multi-chain based access control system that can guarantee the rights of the personal data subject required by GDPR by utilizing Chameleon Hash and Attribute Based Encryption (ABE). Finally, we will show through security analysis that our system can handle personal data while maintaining confidentiality and integrity.

  • Purpose The purpose of this study is to find out in extent to which the companies in Korea and oversea, which has been subjected by different laws of their country, have guaranteed the personal information rights and have provided proper 'right to access' to the information subjects. Design/methodology/approach This study compared Korean laws with 'General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)' of EU and 'California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)' to check each of the level of 'right to access' guarantee. In terms of the difference in guaranteeing the right, this study compared Korean IT leading companies with US global leading IT companies to find out how much 'right to access' are properly implemented in their policies and functions they provide. Findings The result of the study shows that 'right to access' has not been well guaranteed by Korean law, as it does not provide the right to choose method and medium by information subjects and does not clarify the types of diverse information. This was clearly opposite with the other laws providing the right to choose what method and medium that subjects want with clarifying every types of personal information possible to be more. In addition, 'right to access' has not been well guaranteed by Korean companies in comparison with by the oversea companies which proactively guarantee the right by setting the function enabling subjects to browse their information through their websites or applications.

  • Recently, Syntheic data has been in the spotlight as a technology that can protect personal information while maintaining the patterns and characteristics of actual data. Accordingly, technical and institutional research on synthetic data is actively being conducted, but it is difficult to actively use synthetic data due to the lack of clear standards and guidelines. This study is a preliminary study for quantifying the disclosure risk of synthetic data, and derives a privacy disclosure risk index through statistical methodology and suggests specific application measures to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation(GDPR). It is expected that the disclosure risk and the balance of data utility can be controlled through the privacy disclosure risk index of this study in an open data environment.

  • The European Union recently established the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for secure data use and personal information protection. Inspired by this, South Korea revised their Personal Information Protection Act, the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, and the Credit Information Use and Protection Act, collectively known as the "Three Data Bills," which prescribe safe personal information use based on pseudonymous data processing. Based on these bills, the personal data store (PDS) has received attention because it utilizes the MyData service, which actively manages and controls personal information based on the approval of individuals, and it practically ensures their rights to informational self-determination. Various types of PDS models have been developed by several countries (e.g., the US, Europe, and Japan) and global platform firms. The South Korean government has now initiated MyData service projects for personal information use in the financial field, focusing on personal credit information management. There is also a need to verify the efficacy of this service in diverse fields (e.g., medical). However, despite the increased attention, existing MyData models and frameworks do not satisfy security requirements of ensured traceability, transparency, and distributed authentication for personal information use. This study analyzes primary PDS models and compares them to an internationally standardized framework for personal information security with guidelines on MyData so that a proper PDS model can be proposed for South Korea.
