Abstract :
The National Police Agency has contributed to the construction, maintenance, and management of its own nationwide info-communications network composed of a microwave radio system operated by the NPA, dedicated lines leased from major carriers and so on. Due to overhanging crises of natural disasters and threats posed by people of malicious intent to the confidential police network, the NPA is urgently exposed to the pressure to upgrade its internal network system. Thanks to the remarkable progress in the field of IT, more securely and qualitatively reliable communications and efficient methods for information sharing have been actively proposed and developed by various IT vendors. By taking advantage of the latest technologies, the NPA is under the way to strengthen the whole of its own network.
