The ever-evolving Internet environment along with changes in the mass media has been creating a new way of communicating in the virtual cyber world. The Internet users have more services at their disposal to communicate with ease. Such a new way of communication styles, however, makes them vulnerable to personal information leakage, increasing the concerns of cyber security. A thorny issue is how we can control the disclosure of personal information. Lately, the Korean government implemented privacy policies to resolve and prevent personal information leakage incidents that incur social problems. Here, we seek to identify problems in the privacy policies for better solutions.

The Personal Information Protection Commission was launched in August 2020 as an integrated control tower for personal information protection, but several problems have been pointed out in the personal information protection operation system. First, despite the fact that Korea's personal information protection system has an integrated legal system that regulates both the public and private sectors, it has been pointed out that it is difficult to carry out smooth personal information protection functions due to incomplete integration of protection functions, such as the Financial Services Commission being in charge of personal credit information protection and the Korea Communications Commission being in charge of personal location information protection. Next, despite the increasing number of public sector personal information leakage incidents, there is a lack of personnel with expertise and specialized support organizations to efficiently investigate them, and there is a concern that the lack of an efficient response system to personal information infringement by global IT companies in Korea in the era of digital commerce may weaken the protection of citizens' personal information. In order to solve these problems, I reviewed overseas cases and literature and proposed the following measures. First, it is necessary to centralize the personal information protection supervision function for credit information and location information to the Personal Information Protection Commission. Second, it is necessary to secure expertise by securing specialized personnel and establishing specialized institutions to respond to public sector personal information leakage incidents. Third, it is necessary to revitalize the domestic agency designation system and establish an international cooperation system to protect people's personal information in the digital commerce era. I believe that these measures to develop the personal information protection system will lead to more systematic personal information protection.

The organizations and companies establish personal information protection policy under the law and guidelines. They carry out access control without consideration for distinctiveness of the information although the damage degree varies when the information is leaked. Considering the distinctiveness, a policy needs to be made for individuals to protect his personal information. However, he is not able to write the policy because of lack of understanding the system. To write his own policy efficiently, the system that authorizes ones according to service list provided by organizations is necessary. This paper suggests the model and method that write personal policy for his information protection based on the service list provided by organizations. Through this model, fine-grained authorization and policy change are easily made and ultimately the access control customized according to one's own information is possible.

Purpose This study provided empirical support for the model that explain the formation of privacy concerns in the perspective of Information Boundary Theory. This study investigated an integrated model suggesting that privacy concerns are formed by the individual's disposition to value privacy, privacy awareness, awareness of privacy policy, and government legislation. The Information Boundary Theory suggests that the boundaries of information space dependends on the individual's personal characteristics and environmental factors of e-commerce. When receiving a request for personal information from e-commerce websites, an individual assesses the risk depending on the risk-control assessment, the perception of intrusion give rise to privacy concerns. Design/methodology/approach This study empirically tested the hypotheses with the data collected in a survey that included the items measuring the constructs in the model. The survey was aimed at university students. and a causal modeling statistical technique(PLS) is used for data analysis in this research. Findings The results of the survey indicated significant relationships among environmental factors of e-commerce websites, individual's personal privacy characteristics and privacy concerns. Both individual's awareness of institutional privacy assurance on e-commerce and the privacy characteristics affect the risk-control assessment towards information disclosure, which becomes an essential components of privacy concerns.

In a broad term, health and medical data means all patient information that has been generated or circulated in government health and medical policies, such as medical research and public health, and all sorts of health and medical fields as well as patients' personal data, referred as medical data (filled out as medical record forms) by medical institutions. The kinds of health and medical data in medical records are prescribed by Articles on required medical data and the terms of recordkeeping in the Enforcement Decree of the Medical Service Act. As EMR, OCS, LIS, telemedicine and u-health emerges, sharing and protecting digital health and medical data is at issue in these days. At medical institutions, health and medical data, such as medical records, is classified as "sensitive information" and thus is protected strictly. However, due to the circulative property of information, health and medical data can be public as well as being private. The legal grounds of health and medical data as such are based on the right to informational self-determination, which is one of the fundamental rights derived from the Constitution. In there, patients' rights to refuse the collection of information, to control recordkeeping (to demand access, correction or deletion) and to control using and sharing of information are rooted. In any processing of health and medical data, such as generating, recording, storing, using or disposing, privacy can be violated in many ways, including the leakage, forgery, falsification or abuse of information. That is why laws, such as the Medical Service Act and the Personal Data Protection Law, and the Guideline for Protection of Personal Data at Medical Institutions (by the Ministry of Health and Welfare) provide for technical, physical, administrative and legal safeguards on those who handle personal data (health and medical information-processing personnel and medical institutions). The Personal Data Protection Law provides for the collection, use and sharing of personal data, and the regulation thereon, the disposal of information, the means of receiving consent, and the regulation of processing of personal data. On the contrary, health and medical data can be inspected or delivered of the copies, based on the principle of restriction on fundamental rights prescribed by the Constitution. For instance, Article 21(Access to Record) of the Medical Service Act, and the Personal Data Protection Law prescribe self-disclosure, the release of information by family members or by laws, the exchange of medical data due to patient transfer, the secondary use of medical data, such as medical research, and the release of information and the release of information required by the Personal Data Protection Law.

As military service members are fully permitted to use mobile phones for sickness after work, it is time to minimize the direct collection of personal information from telecommunication companies when opening mobile phones to secure the safety of military service personnel's personal information. Prior to introducing the use of mobile phones by soldiers after work, the Ministry of National Defense established a security control system such as blocking the mobile phone shooting function to prevent security accidents and concerns about some adverse functions such as illegal cyber gambling, game addiction, and viewing pornography. come. Mobile telecommunications companies entrust personal information processing tasks, such as opening mobile phones, to telecommunications agencies and carry out management and supervision, such as checking the status of personal information protection measures. When a military service member opens a mobile phone, a personal information management agency is newly established using the right to portability of personal information, and a system for requesting the transmission of personal information from the military service member is proposed.

Personal Information Protection Act does not apply to certain personal information processings and personal information management as well as the data subject's right to access to their personal information collected by public authorities pursuant to Statistics Act. Such exclusion may lead to problems such as misuse and mishandling of personal information by data controllers as well as infringement upon the data subejct's right to control over their personal information. This study is to find solutions to the above problems, considering the public interests of statistics and the facilitation of the collection and the use of statistics. Ultimately, the study is to suggest recommendations for the Personal Information Protection Act to ensure the data subject's rights to request access and rectification as well as safe management of the collected personal information.

In this paper, a software framework is proposed for the personal robot located on home network. The proposed software framework is divided into four layers-a transparency layer, a behavior layer, a distributed task layer, and a mission scenario layer. The transparency layer consists of a virtual machine for platform transparency, and a communication broker for communication transparency among behavior modules. The communication architecture includes both server/client communication and publisher/subscriber communication. A mission scenario is assumed to be a composition of sequentially planned distributed tasks. In addition to the software framework, a new concept, personal robot design center platform as proposed in this paper with its implementation mechanisms. The personal robot design center is defined as a developing and a managing environment for high-level behavior modules, distributed tasks, and mission scenarios.
