The level of information protection is relatively low, in comparison with the informatisation in this country. The budget for information protection is also quite marginal at 5% of the entire information-related policy budget. The passive information protection practices by companies, which focus more on the aftermaths, lead to repeated expenses for risk management. The responses to the violation of information protection should be changed from the current aftermaths-oriented focus to prevention and early detection of possible violations. We should also realize that the response to a violation of protected information is not a responsibility of an individual but a joint responsibility of the nation and the industry. South Korea has been working towards to building a systematic foundation since 2004 when guidelines were announced regarding the information protection policy and the safety diagnosis. The current level of safety policies cannot provide a perfect protection against actual violation cases in administrative, technological and physical ways. This research evaluates the level of prevention that the current systematic protection policy offers, and discusses its limitation and possible ways for improvement. It also recommends a list effective measures for protection against information violation that companies can employ to maintain the actual target safety level.
