Lee Jun-seok, leader of the New Reform Party, says computer network paralysis must be ”established in a decentralized manner, like in the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty” (South Korea)

Lee Jun-seok, the leader of the New Reform Party and a member of the National Assembly's Science, Technology, Information, Broadcasting and Communications Committee, said that substantial countermeasures are needed to deal with the government's computer network paralysis, and that the 'Geographical 2' of the national core service should be implemented.
On the 28th, Lee told Fei Book, "The computer network failure is causing increasing inconvenience to the public. It is easy to launch political attacks, but the lawmakers in charge of science and communications should be able to find solutions."
Lee said, "It is my responsibility to carefully consider and present the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty in Hanyang, Chunjugwan, Chungju, Jeonju, and Seongju."
Just as only the manuscript of the Jeonju History survived during the Imjin War (the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1552), and history continued,
Services also need to go beyond simple equipment duplication and be distributed across completely geographically separated data centers."
He continued, "The most important thing is to achieve true geographical triplication.
"We need to move away from the current structure that is concentrated in Seoul and Sejong and build additional data centers in Gyeongsang and Jeolla provinces," he said.
Lee also mentioned the case of private companies operating distributed backup systems on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud, saying, "Because the government handles sensitive information,
"The cost of storage devices has dropped considerably, and the domestic network infrastructure is well-established.
Considering the economic losses and inconvenience to the public, the cost of building a duplicate data center can be justified,” Lee wrote.
Citing the example of the Chaos Monkey, which inspects systems, he wrote, "It is necessary to establish a culture of regular testing and improvement."
He added, "Before we can talk about the glorious age of AI, we must first strengthen the basic infrastructure.
"I hope this will be an opportunity for us to take stock of our overall digital infrastructure and take a leap forward. Above all, I would like to express my gratitude and support to the engineers working hard on the ground to restore the infrastructure," he added.
