South Korea has launched a program that aims to find the best hackers and turn them into national cybercrime fighters. The program is the government`s response to a series of cyber-attacks South Korea had to fend off in 2009 and 2011 when government websites and a local financial institution computer system were subjected to malicious attacks.

The South Korean initiative comes in a moment when most countries are considering a cyber-security division.”]
