Study on Classification of Defense Scientific and Technical Information in Korea

摘要

The Korean government enacted the Defense Industrial Technology Security Act in 2015 and announced the list of defense industrial technologies to be protected for national security. Accordingly, defense industry companies should establish the defense technology protection system and protect the defense industrial technology information designated by law. Currently the Korean government is trying to develop the classification system of defense scientific and technical information. In this paper, we study a classification system of defense scientific and technical information. To do this, we analyze the directives currently operated by the Ministry of National Defense of Korea and the classification system of scientific and technical information of the US Department of Defense. Then, we propose a classification system which is based on Korean system and adopts the US system to supplement the shortcomings.
