Though, thanks to NPKI(National Public Key Infrastructure), the Korean secure Internet transaction environment has been rapidly grown in the last decade, it also faces with several problems, which need to be solved in near future, mainly resulted from the lack of openness and compatability of the NPKI-based environment which is operating in a closed way. It is believed that those problems of the NPKI can be solved when it is implemented to be based on the SSL/TLS, an international standard for web-based secure Internet transactions. The transition to the SSL/TLS-based NPKI needs to be performed so that the advantages of current NPKI are well maintained. The purpose of this paper is to comparatively analyze the NPKI and the SSL/TLS so as to give basic idea of implementing the current NPKI to be based on the SSL/TLS. The analysis will show not only how the SSL/TLS-based NPKI can improve current NPKI but also how the advantages of current NPKI can be maintained by the SSL/TLS-based NPKI.

Internet is the most important element in the emergence of the Internet economy, which derives the creation of new firms and employment, and brings about the new ways of marketing and business. The emergence of the Internet economy and the rapid growth of the Internet industry have a great deal to changes in the spatial economy. Korea has experienced a rapid growth of the Internet industries, but few geographical studies have been done to explain the impact of the development of the Internet industries on the spatial economy. This research explored how Korea has developed as a nation of the strong Internet economy in terms of driving forces by demand and supply side. This research tried to build a data set for the Internet industries with the introduction of a new classification scheme and a measurement. The most important finding from this research was the spatial concentration of the Internet industries toward Seoul at the national level and toward the Gangnam area within Seoul. The rise of Internet industries has added attractiveness to Seoul which enjoys a kind of cumulative and circular advantages.

In order to solve the problems of maintenance and security for information-infrastructure, public organizations and some of leading companies adopted Server Based Computing(SBC) infrastructure. The effectiveness and possibility of SBC has become focused with the Cloud-Computing infrastructure, which is a extended concept of SBC, as it is being magnified as a main part among the internet business models for the next generation. The purpose of this study was to analyze its probability in elementary and secondary school and find out its effectiveness. In order to do this, three model schools have been selected from GyeongBuk, ChungNam, ChungBuk province and they were managed by SBC infrastructure. And We conducted analysis of satisfaction for teachers and students, interview with teachers and classroom observation as a effectiveness verification. As the results of the analysis, First, we can find out which part we should consider more when we are to adopt SBC infrastructure. Second, the level of satisfaction for teachers is 3.45 and students is 3.2. Therefore, this study was concluded to contribute to find directions what should be considered when setting the SBC infrastructure in elementary and secondary schools.

This article analyzes statistical indicators on the infrastructure of S&T culture in Korea. In the case of visible infrastructure, science museums, S&T programs in TV, and S&T books are not sufficiently secured except for internet. The utilization of visible infrastructure tends to be increased but in rudimentary stage. In relation to invisible infrastructure, public interest and understanding of &T is underdeveloped, social status of S&T personnel is low compared to social importance, and participation in S&T policy of S&T personnel and citizens organization is limited. For the development of statistical indicators in S&T culture, personal, institutional, and social contexts should be much considered, surveys on the particular social groups are systematically pursued, and a white paper on the S&T culture in Korea needs to be published.

This short report introduces the general background why Brazil conference is being prepared and what topics would be undertaken and what goals are being taken into account. It overviews what differences from traditional telecommunication governance, internet governance has had in its historical development and how such differences had been formed from its technological differences and the regulatory policy shift from common carrier regulation to privatization. Moreover, the fact that open, voluntary, bottom-up, diverse stakeholder's participation had evolved throughout the historical development of the internet, had established the present multistakeholder governance model from technological standardization to addressing scheme policies. ICANN, which has governed internet addressing schemes since the earlier 2000s, had developed address policies including IANA function from Jon Postel and technical community's legacy management system into contract based formation between ICANN and gTLD, ccTLD registries. And it made dispute resolution policies responding to trademark disputes and resolved gTLD monopoly issue by introducing new TLD generation and the separation of registry and registar. However, there had been challenges on the legitimacy of ICANN due to its dependency on the Federal Government of the U.S. particularly in its oversight role over ICANN and IANA contract. WSIS raised up internet governance issues including addressing governance, and set up IGF as a discussion platform for multistakeholders to discuss and share all views on other internet related public policies. IGF's loose and non-binding discussion once frustrated governments and other stakeholders, but more focused discussion and visible outcomes have consolidated its unique role for internet governance discourses. Particularly, IGF addressed many emerging internet related issues like cybersecurity, privacy, net neuratlity, development related issues. WTPF of 2013, after WCIT debate on whether traditional telecommunication regulation could be applied to internet infrastructure, suggested other governance issues such as the transition to ipv6, IXP coordination etc. How to make sure the legitimacy of internet addressing governance and how and where other internet related public policies could be undertaken are fundamental tasks for internet governance. Brazil conference, which has been motivated by the breakdown of trust in internet governance from NSA mass surveillance revealed by Snowden, faces these questions and try to make consensus on principles, institutions and roadmap for internet governance in multistakeholder participation way.

By the rapid development of Information Communication Technology (ICT) and Geo-spatial Technology (GT) and the increased usage of spatial data for planning and infrastructure management, the National Geographic Information System (NGIS) for more efficient and effective utilization of spatial information has been developed by the central government in Korea since 1995. NGIS is the base of Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI). SDI is developed as one of National Information Infrastructures (NII). Among the hierarchy of SDI, National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) has very important role in the success of SDI development. Many research articles show that the USA's NSDI initiatives, development strategy have been strongly influenced all over the world. In these viewpoints, to propose the future directions of Korean NGIS, the development of NSDI strategy of USA is reviewed by literature through published book and internet resources. The conclusions of this study are as follow: 1) top-down and bottom-up approach are needed for integrated data sharing and standardization. 2) the creative and evolutionary vision and strategy has to be suggested. 3) the training program and lecture material has to be developed and diffused to the users and providers of spatial data. 4) governance system has to be built for NSDI evaluation. 5) the formation of geo-spatial forum to discuss the spatial-related problems and make research agenda, etc.

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has the potential to provide economic opportunities and help raise the social and political status of countries. For developing countries, ICT can be used as a tool for economic growth and social advancement in a short period of time. The benefits of ICT, however, are not only economic in nature. It can help improve professional skills, teaching quality, job creation, agricultural production, community involvement, and information use, personal relationships, and time use. These benefits are examples of how ICT has become an indispensable part of our lives. Myanmar is a developing country and is ranked low in the ICT Development Index. In terms of ICT development, Myanmar today is facing many issues such as a lack of telecommunication infrastructure, ICT awareness, electricity, and budget for ICT development. Among the economic reforms implemented by the recent government, the telecommunications sector has been opened up as a measure of economic reform. As a result of this reform, the telecommunications sector has been growing rapidly. Myanmar, however, remains behind other Asian countries. This paper discusses Myanmar's ICT infrastructure status, progress that has been made in the country's telecommunications over the last fifteen years, and the challenges that lie ahead.

The smart grid, a new open platform, is a core application for facilitating a creative economy in the era of the Internet of Things (IoT). Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is one of the components of the smart grid and a two-way communications infrastructure between the main utility operator and customer. The smart meter records consumption of electrical energy and communicates that information back to the utility for monitoring and billing. This paper investigates the impact of a cybersecurity attack on the smart meter. We analyze the cost to the smart grid in the case of a smart meter attack by authorized users based on a high risk scenario from NESCOR. Our findings could be used by policy makers and utility operators to create investment decision-making models for smart grid security.
