All nations in the world may receive threat and are exposed to cybercrime from terrorists to attack their national security. Nowadays, most of organizations such as the government, the private sector and multinational company store important data for various purposes. Generally, the first step in planning the deployment of any IT system for security functionality should be a comprehensive risk analysis of the system for protection and the subsequent generation of a set of security policies. Attempting to bound the Internet from a security standpoint would have been a never ending task. However, many of the conventional risks associated with, for example, the deployment of a corporate IT communication systems may be inappropriate for global public system like the Internet. Thus, some fundamental security principles still hold for the Net and ‗necessary‘ for data security management. This paper discusses the importance of security and how it can be integrated into this emerging market and the policy implication for data security. Finally, this paper seeks to highlight data security issues for national security and challenges in disaster management in the knowledge-based economy in the New Millennium.
