(Norm 3) States should not knowingly allow their territory to be used for internationally wrongful acts using ICTs; The ROK does not knowingly allow its territory to be used for internationally wrongful acts using ICTs. Our concrete efforts to ensure the statement are as following: ㆍCountering Cybercrime The Korean National Policy Agency (KNPA) has exerted its efforts to promote the nation’s capabilities to counter cybercrime through training programs, sets of investigation manual, and research on investigation techniques, and more. If certain websites are turned out to be utilized for cybercrime like in distribution of malware, the police authority shall shut the websites at the initial stage. ㆍDeterring and responding to cyber threats The KNPA operates counter-cyberterrorism teams all across the country. For now, 30 teams with 160 officers are tasked with responding to cyber threats and addressing cybercrime. Since 2012, the KISA has operated bug bounty programs to encourage individuals to report bugs and vulnerabilities in software. Since its implementation, 1,466 bugs and vulnerabilities have been reported. Major vulnerabilities reported through the programs are publicly announced online, which allows the developers to resolve the issues and other CERTs to respond. Now, the national CERT under KISA (KrCERT/CC) eagerly cooperates with international Computer Emergency Response Teams (CERTs), including Asia Pacific Computer Emergency Response Team (APCERT) by sharing information on cyber threats. In 2019, the KrCERT/CC shared ICT incidents information with relevant authorities of other members. ㆍPromoting the principle of due diligence The ROK has constantly demonstrated its commitment in light with the 2015 UN Group of Government Experts (GGE) Report through public statements at the regional and international forums. It is equally expected that other States should not knowingly allow its territory to be used for internationally wrongful acts using ICTs. The ROK has keen interests in promoting the principle of due diligence, reflected in norms identified in the 2015 UN GGE Report, and hopes that this norm be elevated on a firmer footing. 4 / 10
