SEOUL, South Korea,
Dec. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --
Kiwontech's newly-developed targeted email attack protection
technology has been selected as the leading ICT standard of
Korea.
One of Korea's most prominent IT security companies and a JV
member of Born2Global Centre, Kiwontech is pursuing the
commercialization of its global email security standards-compliant
IT security technologies in Southeast Asian countries, including
Vietnam. In November, Kiwontech
and Vnetwork, a Vietnamese content delivery network (CDN) operator,
formed the joint venture VnetKiwon Security.
The Telecommunications Technology Association (TTA), the
authority on the setting and implementation of ICT standards in
Korea, has adopted Kiwontech's technology, called "Security
functional requirements for the prevention of targeted email
attacks" (TTAK.KO-12.0379), as a Telecommunications Technology
Association Standard (TTAS).
This new TTAS will serve as an email security benchmark for
companies in international business and retail that use email to
send and receive financial and other sensitive information as well
as general businesses that use email across their operations.
Kiwontech's development of this technology began in December 2020.
The company's goal from the beginning of the development process
was to have the technology chosen as a national email security
standard, and the resulting solution is capable of diagnosing email
security risks associated with fraud against users and businesses,
information leaks, and ransomware. More than 50 government
agencies, SMBs, and other entities have already completed trials of
Kiwontech's new email security solution, which replaces
flesh-and-blood IT security consultants with AI in the detection,
analysis, and reporting of email security threats, a breakthrough
that will enable a rapid market launch of the company's
technology.
Kiwontech's TTAS will serve as a valuable reference for
corporate IT security teams in auditing email security and
purchasing-related solutions and enable email security solution
developers to supplement and optimize security functions to ensure
the reliability of the email security products their customers
use.
Kiwontech CEO Kim Dong-cheol
said, "Selected standards for targeted email attack protection were
something needed not just in Korea but all over the world. The
governments of many developed countries have been involved in the
acquisition and supply of such standardized email security
technology for some time."
