In 2021, the Korean National Police Agency is facing a critical time as it meets a period of drastic changes such as the introduction of autonomous police system, the reform of its criminal investigation system, and its great transformation to a truly responsible investigative agency in keeping with the inauguration of the National Office of Investigation. This study carries out PEST analysis, which is a macro environmental analysis technique, and examines the current situation of operating the libraries of metropolitan-city and provincial police agencies and affiliated institutions, in order to suggest the role and function of the Korean National Police Agency's libraries in the fourth industrial revolution era. Based on the findings, this study classifies the essential components of a library into facilities, books, and librarians, i.e. spatial composition, book composition, and human resources, in addition to library operational governance establishment and future-oriented library services; and proposes the future-oriented roles of the National Police Agency's libraries in the fourth industrial revolution era.

Last year, the Moon Jae-In administration made an attempt to abolish the presidential security office overseeing the presidential security and to transfer the work to the presidential security service under the National Police Agency. Currently, all of the G7 nations maintain a security system spearheaded by the police, so the policy of transferring the presidential security to the National Police Agency may be discussed. However, it is necessary to focus on the following reality. First, the current presidential security system is consisted of the overlapping security organizations classified into (1) inner ring of the presidential security agency, (2) middle ring of the police agency, and (3) outer ring of the capital defense command. If the presidential security agency is abolished, a vacuum will result as per the principle of class. Second, for the efficient security guard of the President, currently, the presidential security agency at the Presidential Security Safety Measure Committee plays the role of coordinating the tasks. If the National Police Agency becomes the control tower of the presidential security, whether command will be available for the military and diplomatic aspects of the presidential security work should also be considered. Third, Korea is currently in a truce with North Korea, so there is a big difference in terms of the security environment with such G7 nations as the UK, Germany, France, and Japan.

There has been significant research conducted on how to discover various insights through text data using statistical techniques. In this study we analyzed text data produced by the Korean National Police Agency to identify trends in the work by year and compare work characteristics among local authorities by identifying distinctive keywords in documents produced by each local authority. A preprocessing according to the characteristics of each data was conducted and the frequency of words for each document was calculated in order to draw a meaningful conclusion. The simple term frequency shown in the document is difficult to describe the characteristics of the keywords; therefore, the frequency for each term was newly calculated using the term frequency-inverse document frequency weights. The L2 norm normalization technique was used to compare the frequency of words. The analysis can be used as basic data that can be newly for future police work improvement policies and as a method to improve the efficiency of the police service that also help identify a demand for improvements in indoor work.

The aim of this study was to investigate the current state of operation of information disclosure system in Busan Metropolitan Police Agency and to suggest recommendations for improvement. To achieve this goal, this study quantitatively analyzed the data on information disclosure claims (2010~2020.6), appeal cases (2010~2020.6), the disclosure rate of original documents (2014~2019) and so on. Furthermore, it examined how and how much information is announced in advance through the agency's homepage and the information disclosure portal site. Results show that the agency has various problems regarding information disclosure including the high rate of transferring information to other institutions, the low disclosure rate of original documents, the high rate of information released publicly only after an administrative appeal, a small number of information announced in advance, and a not user-friendly website. To solve these problems, this study proposes providing accurate information about the scope of information the agency and other related institutions own, expanding the disclosure of original documents, discovering more information to announce in advance, and enhancing the usability of the website.

The cyber-crime is one of the results occurring from the increased dependency toward information-telecommunication devices. Currently, the Korean National Police Agency and many other related law enforcement agencies have made efforts to respond against the cyber-crimes. However, the number of cyber-crime is increasing steadily. The worse problem is that the arresting rate for the cyber-crime has been decreased than before. The reasons of decreasing arresting rate come from many different kinds of cyber-crime methods with the developed computer and network technology, Also, the easy concealment of the cyber-crime by the violater and the difficulty of specification against the data objected to search and seizure make the crackdown difficult. The other difficulties come from the lack of professionally trained investigators, the lack of high-technological investigation devices, and the failure of the technology development for the search and seizure of evidences because of the budget deficit. That is to say, these phenomenon show the comprehensive problem of the cyber-police system. Accordingly, to respond against newly changed cyber-crime activities and to investigate effectively, the cyber-police has to take consideration into the professional reorganization of the cyber-police, the development of the investigation technology, and the adjustment of current cyber-crime laws. Most importantly, the cyber-police needs the high-technological investigation devices, the development of the investigation methods, and the training for the professional human resources with the enough budget support.J

The paper deals with the implementation of prototype Risk Visualization Sytem (RVS). The RVS is one of the sub-system of Risk Management System (RMS) of National Maritime Police Agency in Korea. In this work, prototype RVS was constructed with virtual reality techniques. Using the prototype RVS, we carried out some performance tests for the various environmental conditions at sea. As results from tests, the prototype RVS can provide immersible virtual world. The results gave rise to the user interaction with 3D objects that give realistic reproduction of sear environments. Thus, we found that the prototype RVS should be a immersible visualization system of Risk Management System.
