ㆍCERT Cooperation
The ROK cooperates with international CERTs, including Asia Pacific Computer Emergency
Response Team (APCERT) by sharing information on cyber threats. In 2019, the ROK
participated in the APCERT Incident Handling Drill, a simulated exercise of cyberattacks in
scenario, and checked the readiness of cyber threat response and its organized cooperative
system.
To promote CERT cooperation, the ROK has entered into several MOUs with partner
countries, thereby establishing the points of contact with 10 countries for swift ICT incident
response. Since joining as a member of the Global Forum of Incident Response and Security
Teams (FIRST), the ROK has shared its case studies of ICT incidents and collected
information on hacking incidents in Korea from other global CERTs and security firms at the
annual conferences.
