Privacy means the right not to interfere with the private life of an individual. Bio data is the most private personal information about the person itself, and according to advancement of technology, it is possible to analyze and judge individual as well as identify individual. The Personal Information Protection Act is based on global privacy principles, but the legislation for the protection of bio information has yet to be enacted. Therefore, it is time to protect biometric data as more sensitive information than general personal information. We will review the global privacy discussions for protecting biometric information and propose additional privacy principles and measures for utilization that should be defined in the biometric information protection guideline.

Illegal game players' hacking and propagation of malignant code in online game exposes privacy of online game customers. So, online game companies have to support the standardized systems and operations of customers' privacies. Since online game companies implement authentication of information protection, which focuses on assets or physical, systemic security, they need a more professional system that is related to protection of individual privacy. We analyzed the individual information protection system, which includes ISO27001, ISMS of KISA, GMITS, ePrivacy, online game privacy protection guide, and BS10012. Using the suggested systems, we proposed the systemic tools that measure the level of individual information protection, which includes process and check items of each phase.

This study investigates the factors that facilitate or hinder people to use mobile payment, especially drawing upon the theoretical perspectives on individual's privacy protection motivation and perceived market condition. Survey data (n = 200) were collected through a web-based platform and used to test a theoretical model. The results show that one's privacy protection power is formed by various individual and technological factors (i.e., perceived data exposure, self-efficacy, and response efficacy), and in turn it determines his/her intention to use mobile payment. Moreover, the relationship between privacy protection power and mobile payment use is conditional on the perceived market control by the service provider - with a perception of the high level of provider's market control, one uses mobile payment regardless of his/her privacy protection power, while under the low level of provider's market control, the decision depends on the degree of privacy protection power. The findings would help our understanding of why some people are more susceptible to mobile payment and others are not.

Biometric recognition refers to a technology that identifies or verifies an individual after registering each individual's physical, physiological, and behavioral characteristics with an automated device. However, the biometric data used here corresponds to personal information since it can identify an individual. Therefore, when it is compromised or misused, it negatively affects the privacy of the data subject. In this paper, we review the current status of domestic laws related to biometric information and the status of infringements related to this. And then, some biometric application models are derived and vulnerabilities and countermeasures for each model are discussed. Finally, for the developer and service provider of the biometric system, protection guidance is presented.

The policy change in the Data 3 Act is one of the issues that should be noted at a time when non-face-to-face business strategies become important after COVID-19. The Data 3 Act was implemented in South Korea on August 5, 2020, calling 'Big Data 3 Act' and 'Data Economy 3 Act,' and so personal information that was not able to identify a particular individual could be utilized without the consent of the individual. With the implementation of the Data 3 Act, it is possible to establish a fair economic ecosystem by ensuring fair access to data and various uses. In this paper, the law on the protection of personal information, which is the core of the Data 3 Act, was compared around Korea, the European Union and the United States, and the implications were derived through network analysis of keywords.

In modern society, user privacy is emerging as an important issue as closed-circuit television (CCTV) systems increase rapidly in various public and private spaces. If CCTV cameras monitor sensitive areas or personal spaces, they can infringe on personal privacy. Someone's behavior patterns, sensitive information, residence, etc. can be exposed, and if the image data collected from CCTV is not properly protected, there can be a risk of data leakage by hackers or illegal accessors. This paper presents an innovative approach to "machine learning based reversible chaotic masking method for user privacy protection in CCTV environment." The proposed method was developed to protect an individual's identity within CCTV images while maintaining the usefulness of the data for surveillance and analysis purposes. This method utilizes a two-step process for user privacy. First, machine learning models are trained to accurately detect and locate human subjects within the CCTV frame. This model is designed to identify individuals accurately and robustly by leveraging state-of-the-art object detection techniques. When an individual is detected, reversible chaos masking technology is applied. This masking technique uses chaos maps to create complex patterns to hide individual facial features and identifiable characteristics. Above all, the generated mask can be reversibly applied and removed, allowing authorized users to access the original unmasking image.

This study analysed the legal concept of personal information(PI), which was not differentiated from behavioral information, and established it clearly for invigorating online targeted advertising(OTA), which draw attention in big data era; by selecting Guidelines of Assessment of Data Breach Incident Factors and Guidelines of Measures for No-Identifying Personal Information based on Personal Information Protection Act(PIPA) and Enforcement Decree of the PIPA. As a result, PI was defined as any kind of information relating to (1)a living individual(not group, corporate body or things etc.); (2)makes possibly identify the individual by his or her identifiers such as name, resident registration number, image, etc. (not included if not identify the individual); and (3)including information like attribute values which makes possibly identify any specific individual, if not by itself, but combined with other information which can be actually collected and combined). Specifically, PI includes basic, proper distinguishable, sensitive and other PI. It is suggested that PI concept should be researched continually with digital technology development; the effectiveness of the Guidelines of PI Protection in OTA, the legal principles of PI protection from not only users' but business operators' perspectives and the differentiation between PI and behavioral information in OTA should be researched.

While most of the existing protection schemes have been designed with local information around individual components, these local schemes are not considered capable of protecting the modern electric power gird with growing complexity. Recent blackouts in North America and Europe have renewed the emphasis on coordinated protection and control actions to avoid systemwide blackouts, utilizing all of the available grid information. Thus, this paper proposes a new methodology, Agent-based Colored Petri Net (ACPN) modeling for systematically representing, modeling and analyzing information flows and interactions among the entities of the electric power grid. The paper demonstrates its efficacy and accuracy by investigating an ACPN model of a wide area protection system for a typical power grid. The proposed modeling and analysis schemes may further provide a framework to help assure reliability and interoperability of diverse smart grid components.

In the transportation sector, reducing total vehicle mileage and passenger vehicle traffic are proposed as strategies to achieve carbon neutrality. To achieve this, MaaS services must be actively promoted with the goal of revitalizing public transportation. In order to promote MaaS, individual movement data is required, such as the individual's means of movement, route, and conversion of the individual's means of use. However, in Korea, there are legal limitations in collecting and utilizing data on individual movements. As the right to request transmission of personal information was newly established in the revised Personal Information Protection Act in 2023, a law was established to collect and utilize data on individual movements. However, enforcement ordinance, detailed rules, instructions, guidelines must be prepared, and the standardization of data format and transmission system for collecting my data needs to take precedence.
