SK Broadband, SK Telecom (SKT), and the Korea Social Security Information Service are pushing digital innovation in the social security sector using AI, quantum security, and cloud technologies. SK Broadband said it signed a memorandum of understanding with SKT and the Korea Social Security Information Service on the 14th at the Korea Social Security Information Service in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. The purpose of the agreement is to drive digital innovation in the social security sector and create a foundation for sustainable future growth.

The agreement was pursued in response to growing demand for AI- and data-centered service innovation in the public services sector. The three organizations will work together to secure new technologies and security capabilities that can be applied to social security services.

The three organizations plan to form a joint operating council. The council will discuss cooperation tasks for upgrading welfare services and establish detailed implementation plans.

Areas of cooperation include a demonstration of an AI autonomous security operating system based on post-quantum cryptography (PQC), the preemptive identification of vulnerable households in welfare crises using telecommunications data, and support for AI counseling technology. They will also pursue security enhancements using PQC, support for the application of wired and wireless quantum communications, and technical support for building and operating hardware, software, and security systems in the cloud.

The agreement will be pursued along three axes: security, welfare services, and infrastructure. First, the companies will demonstrate an AI autonomous security operating system based on PQC to prepare for the era of quantum computers, with a focus on improving the security and stability of welfare systems. SK Broadband and SKT plan to apply quantum security technologies to the social security sector and upgrade the security framework of public systems.

In the welfare services area, the companies will use telecommunications data and AI technology. Through this, they will pursue the preemptive identification of households in welfare crises and also pursue support for AI counseling technology. They also plan to expand the scope of digital-based social security services.

At the same time, on the infrastructure side, they will also pursue the establishment of cloud infrastructure. SK Broadband and SKT will provide hardware and software support to the Korea Social Security Information Service and are also expected to support the technology needed to build and operate security systems. The aim is to strengthen the digital transformation foundation of the Korea Social Security Information Service.

Kim Gu-young, head of SK Broadband's Enterprise Business Division, said the agreement would serve as an opportunity to enhance the digital competitiveness of welfare services that people can feel in their daily lives. He also expressed his determination to contribute to the digital innovation of public services based on SK Broadband and SKT's capabilities in AI, quantum security, and cloud.
