How South Korea Invests in Human Capital for Cyber-Security
summary
South Korea documents 75,472 cyberattacks (2010–Oct 2014) and NIS estimates about 6,800 full‑time North Korean cyber operators, so the state funds concentrated training: a Korea University Department of Cyber Defense modeled on Israel’s Talpiot‑style target program, KISA/KICTI programs, the eight‑month B.O.B. course aiming to produce 5,000 certified experts by 2017, and 415 billion KRW invested in university IT 2000–2014. Private bootcamps (SECUINSIDE, CODEGATE, POC) plus industry partners (RAONSECURE) produce DEFCON CTF winners, but gaps remain: emphasis is quantitative rather than information‑assurance depth.
