The Ministry of Science and ICT and the National IT Industry Promotion Agency (NIPA) launched the project "Development of a Cybersecurity-Specialized Artificial Intelligence (AI) Foundation Model" to respond to increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and secure Korea's own security-focused AI capabilities, and the Naver Cloud consortium was selected as the final operator for the project.

East Security, the security subsidiary of Eastsoft, said on the 7th that it will participate in the Naver Cloud consortium. A total of 33 companies and organizations are taking part in the Naver Cloud consortium.

East Security will provide malware data accumulated from endpoint security operations and its threat intelligence (CTI) expertise. It also plans to supply the model with its proprietary data, including operational data from various security products and services such as "ALYac."

East Security is building its own AI security ecosystem by launching "ALYac Agentic EDR," which applies the proprietary foundation model "K-EXAONE," and by exchanging a memorandum of understanding with FuriosaAI, a domestic NPU company.

Amid this trend, East Security CEO Jeong Sang-won emphasized the significance of participating as a partner in the cybersecurity-specialized AI foundation model development project, saying the company will marshal its commercialization capabilities for AI security services, security data, and analytics technologies to contribute to advancing cyber defense capabilities.
