인터넷을 통한 기업간(B2B) 전자거래 시장규모가 올해 17조원대에 이르고 기업과 소비자간(B2C) 전자상거래 시장규모 또한 1조원을 넘어서는 등 전체 국내 전자상거래 시장 규모가 18조원을 넘어 설 전망이다. 이는 정보통신시스템에 대한 사회 전반의 의존도가 한층 증대하고 있음을 보여주는 단적인 예라 할 수 있다 오늘날 인터넷 사용이 보편화되고 전자상거래의 규모가 커져 갈수록 정보보호시스템에 대한 신뢰성 및 안전성에 대한 입증 노력 또한 더 강하게 요구되고 있는게 사실이다. 특히 안전성이 입증되진 않은 취약한 정보보호시스템을 사용한 시스템 구축은 오히려 그 위험성을 증가시킬 수 있음을 최근의 많은 해킹사례를 통해 경험한바 있다, 향후 예견되는 이러한 엄청난 사회적 손실을 막기 위한 제도적 노력의 일환으로 미국, 영국, 독일, 프랑스 등 선진국에서는 10여년 전부터 자국의 환경에 적합한 평가기준을 마련하여 정보보호시스템을 평가해오고 있다 본고에서는 정보보호시스템 평가제도와 관련하여 최근의 국제동향과 그에 따른 국내 대응방안을 모색해 보고자한다. 특히 정보보호시스템 평가를 위한 국제기준의 CC(Common Criteria)와 이를 기반으로 맺어진 MRA(Mutual Recognition Arrangement)의 전개과정을 살펴보고 유럽의 상호인정협정인 ITSEC-MRA의 출범배경과 올 5월에 새롭게 출범한 CC-RA체제와 특징적인 모습을 고찰해 보고자한다.

Purpose - This study analyzes the effect of the authorized economic operator-mutual recognition arrangement (AEO-MRA) on the performance of Korean exporters and importers. The effect of the import-export companies' characteristics, such as annual sales, the number of foreign markets, and overseas experience, on the AEO-MRA is deduced; the relationship between this effect and firm performance is analyzed. Design/methodology - An empirical research model was constructed and analyzed using structural equation modeling. The effect of AEO-MRA on logistics and operational performance was derived from the aforementioned characteristics as leading factors of the AEO-MRA. The regulatory influence of cooperation with logistics companies was analyzed in the AEO-MRA effect on logistics performance. Thus, 172 valid samples were obtained from import-export companies certified by the AEO-MRA. Findings - Among the aforementioned characteristics, only "annual sales" has a positive effect on the AEO-MRA, whose effect enhances logistics and operational performances. The AEO-MRA effect did not directly affect operational performance. Owing to the adjustment effect analysis, the AEO-MRA effect and logistics performance relationship is strengthened if the cooperative relationship with the logistics company is higher than a certain level. If this cooperation falls below a certain level, the AEO-MRA effect on logistics performance reduces. Thus, logistics cooperation is an important factor in the AEO-MRA effect and logistics performance relationship. Originality/value - Hinging on the resource-based theory and relational viewpoint, an empirical model that explains the relationship between the AEO-MRA effect and firm performance is established.

Since the introduction of AEO certification in South Korea in 2008, 516 areas have been AEO certified based on a report dated December 31st, 2013. The number is expected to increase drastically as more and more companies strive to obtain the AEO certification. In this regards, this study is designed to contribute to the further invigoration of the AEO certification system as well as to propose directions to improve companies' performance in a practical point of view. To do so, the writer reviewed the past studies done in the relevant subjects in order to 1) grasp the principal subject, 2) catch the areas with insufficient information/lacking points, and to 3) get a focus on future directions on how additional research should be conducted. An analysis of the past studies proved that prior to the introduction of the AEO certification, the focus of the studies were to present the reasons as to why AEO should be introduced, the benefits of AEO, and a comparative analysis of countries already in wide usage of the AEO system. Studies done after the introduction of AEO (that is, after 2008) focused mainly on invigorating the system into the market. Compared to the previous studies, this study will present a distinct conclusion by breaking down the major points of each study on a year-by-year basis and studying them in total in order to provide an even more practical direction in the future of AEO in South Korea.
