Korea to back up national communications networks
Korea is planning to build a national wireless infrastructure to provide backup for existing systems in case of emergency.
Dr Kim Seang-Tae, the President of Korea’s National Information Society Agency, revealed to Asian Security Review that a ‘dualised networking structure’ is needed should disaster, such as an earthquake or war, strike the East Asian country.
“We are in the process of developing a new strategy for wireless national networking,” said Dr Kim. “In the case of a national emergency we want to be able to ‘cover’ the existing network with a wireless solution.”
Dr Kim denied that the wireless initiative was under threat because of the gloomy Korean economy, and said a pilot project would be rolled out this year.
“Korea is very ambitious in terms of its ICT [information communications technology]-related infrastructure,” he added.
