개인정보유출 피해 비용 산출 모델에 관한 연구

초록

As Korea is rapidly becoming an IT powerhouse in the short term, various side effects such as cyber violence, personalinformation leakage and cyber terrorism are emerging as new social problems. Especially, the seriousness of leakage ofpersonal information, which is the basis of safe cyber life, has been highlighted all over the world. In this regard, it isnecessary to estimate the amount of the damage cost due to the leakage of personal information. In this study, we proposefour evaluation methods to calculate the cost of damages due to personal information leakage according to average realtransactions value, personally recognized value, compensation amount basis, and comparison to similar countries. We analyzeddata from 2007 to 2016 to collect personal information leakage cases for 10 years and estimated the cost of damages. Thenumber of cases used in the estimation is 65, and the total number of personal information leakage is about 430 million. The estimated cost of personal information leakage in 2016 was estimated to be at least KRW 7.4 billion, up to KRW 220billion, and the 10 year average was estimated at from KRW 10.7 billion to KRW 307 billion per year. Also, we could find out the singularity that the estimated damage due to personal information leakage increases every three years. In thefuture, this study will be able to provide an index that can measure the damage cost caused by the leakage of personalinformation more accurately, and it can be used as an index of measures to reduce the damage cost due to personalinformation leakage.
