  • This study is expected to be of significance in that it attempted to examine the personal information protection awareness of college students and the state of their personal information protection as prospective information processors and private information owners to boost their will to put private information protection in practice. As a result of making an analysis, the most common average time that the students spent in doing every online activity on weekdays was fewer than two or three hours, and the most dominant activities that they did over the Internet were for entertainment or hobbies. As for awareness of the nature of the Internet, they looked upon it as a quite open public space. Regarding the state of private information protection, they thought that changing passwords on a regular basis would be beneficial to personal information protection, and many thought that it's needed to withdraw from or shut down web sites that weren't used for a long time. In terms of actual practice, however, they didn't change their e-mail passwords regularly on the grounds that it's a hassle, and even the students who had experience of personal information leakage didn't report it or didn't ask for counsel on the grounds that they didn't want to be bothered as well. The majority of the students weren't cognizant of how to report or seek counsel. In the future, personal information protection should be educated on a continual basis as part of curriculum to raise awareness of it among students and boost their will to practice it with a sense of responsibility in an effort to prevent the occurrence of collateral damages triggered by personal information leakage.

  • After the enactment of the Personal Information Protection Act, policies and activities for the personal information protection have been actively promoted. However the people are showing negative attitudes about personal information, as the ongoing personal data leakages. Therefore, authors tried to empirical analysis of the effectiveness of national policy on the protection of personal information, using SERVQUAL model, focused on the people's perception, in order to identify that how the people recognized current policy. Authors find that the public has perceived the effectiveness of the policy positively, but the level of their awareness is low. And we identify that the people are highly aware of the policy's effectiveness for Immediacy, Convenience and Responsibility, while they have the lowest effectiveness for Efficiency. The policy's improvement focused on the public's low expectations/perceptions and effectiveness awareness, is required in order to develop people-oriented national privacy policy that are satisfied by the people.

  • Since the Personal Information Protection Act was enacted in 2011, it has played a role in safely protecting people's personal information and protecting their rights. Personal information controller must comply with the duty of safeguards for safe personal information management. Even though administrative regulation is an accompanying issue, it is not clear to whom, when and how it applies. According to the imposition of duties, the scope, standards, safety measures, procedures, etc. for the target person should be clearly and specifically specified, but the current legal system is insufficient .In this study, problems and reasonable improvement plans were presented for the classification criteria for applicable subjects, the criteria for the criteria for determining the targets, and the criteria for measures to ensure safety. Through this, we intend to contribute to enhancing the effectiveness of the system by presenting reasonable measures by clarifying and specifying the scope and standards of application.

  • The 「Act on Special Cases concerning the Punishment of Crimes of Domestic Violence」 still has various problems in the legal system and enforcement process. Contrary to the original intention of the legislation, it is operated very passively in terms of state intervention and punishment of domestic violence actors in actual operation. Even if it is treated as a home protection case, if you look at the details of the protection disposition, there is a problem that the decision on the protection disposition is biased towards a specific type of protection disposition. In order to improve this, the need for cooperation and active intervention between state agencies is required. In addition, it is necessary to establish a legal basis for a request for personal protection by recognizing the status of a victim who reported domestic violence as a crime reporter. In addition, in order to secure the effectiveness of the protective disposition, it is necessary to strengthen sanctions for non-compliance or violations of the protective disposition.

  • 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.

  • 본 논문에서는 잊혀질 권리에 대한 법제도 및 법정책적 검토를 논하고자 한다. 잊혀질 권리는 알권리, 표현의 자유 등 다른 기본권과 충돌할 수밖에 없기 때문에 이 권리를 법률로 구체화하는데 다각적인 학제 간 연구가 선결문제로써 검토되어야 한다. 정보 주체에게 잊혀질 권리를 법제화하는 것은 그 정보를 사용하려는 사람의 표현의 자유를 제한하는 결과를 초래하기 때문에 일정한 한계를 노출할 수밖에 없다. 현행 개인정보 보호법, 정보통신망 이용촉진 및 정보보호 등에 관한 법률 등에서 개인정보의 파기제도를 신설하여 부분적으로 잊혀질 권리를 반영하고 있지만 헌법상 중요한 가치인 잊혀질 권리와 알권리 및 표현의 자유에 대해 조화롭게 균형을 찾는 것이 선행과제인 것이다.

  • This study investigates the impact of pseudonymization of personal information and its effect on the accuracy of data analysis. We quantitatively evaluated the relationship between the degree of pseudonymization and the accuracy of data analysis using logistic regression models, decision trees, and random forests. Through this, we confirmed that pseudonymizing sensitive information can realize personal information protection without significantly damaging data quality. However, we recognized limitations such as single sample data and consistent application of pseudonymization ratios. To overcome these limitations, additional research on diverse datasets is necessary to strengthen the generalizability of results. Moreover, we propose developing and applying methodologies to find optimal pseudonymization ratios for individual variables. The results from this study provide new insights into maintaining usability of data while achieving regulatory compliance and personal information protection.

  • The importance of data in the era of the 4th industrial revolution, a hyper-connected society based on information technology such as data and AI, is increasing, and the government is actively enacting and revising laws to revitalize the data economy. It is necessary to prevent and improve problems that may set an obstacle to the revitalization of the data industry or setting the wrong direction, such as possibility of conflict between the regulatory law(Personal Information Protection Act) and the Data Activation Act, differences in position by type of specialized agencies, performance scope of Data Specialist Organization and Expert Data Combination Agency, etc. In regard, I would like to analyze the role, current situation, and use cases of Expert Data Combination Agency, listen to field opinions, and derive and introduce measures to expand the role of Expert Data Combination Agency and improve them to vitalize the data economy
