✦ AI Summary
AhnLab said it has built a security framework to enable the use of generative AI on the Korea Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Creativity's work network and is pushing ahead with expanding the scope of application.
AhnLab was selected as the consortium lead for the '2026 N2SF adoption support project' by the Korea Internet & Security Agency and is carrying out the project with MonitorLab, Dream Security, and SecureOne.
AhnLab said it has implemented 97 security control items and plans to expand companywide from the end of October through November before completing the build by the end of November.
AhnLab announced on the 12th that it has built a security framework to enable the use of generative AI on the Korea Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Creativity's work network, and that it is pushing ahead with expanding the scope of application. AhnLab was selected as the consortium lead for the National Intelligence Service's 2026 N2SF adoption support project, and the project is currently under way.
The consortium also includes MonitorLab, Dream Security, and SecureOne. AhnLab said it has completed the configuration and integration of security solutions together with the participating companies.
The key to this build is the simultaneous application of information service model 2 for using generative AI on the work network and model 4 for internet use on work devices. To this end, AhnLab supplemented and connected the functions needed in its existing security infrastructure, enabling users to access approved external services from work devices.
AhnLab said it has fully implemented all 97 security control items required for the applied models. It also plans to expand the scope of application across the company from the end of October through November, and to complete the build by the end of November.
Regarding the AhnLab N2SF solution integration framework, the configuration and integration of security solutions have been completed. AhnLab explained that it has finished implementing the 97 security control items and plans to expand the rollout companywide from the end of October through November, aiming to complete the build by the end of November.
The AhnLab consortium configured functional integration by implementing the security controls required for the two models between work devices and external services. In this section, it linked user authentication, device verification, web isolation, and data protection functions to verify user identity and privileges, check device security status, and allow access only to approved services. It also set external web content to run in an isolated environment to block unauthorized access and reduce the device's external exposure.
For data transfer, it applied the N2SF principle of differentiated controls by information classification. Information is divided into confidential (C), sensitive (S), and open (O), and the system was configured to determine whether transfer is allowed based on the access target and file classification. This supports the use of information needed for work while blocking transfers that go beyond the permitted scope.
Baek Min-gyeong, team leader at AhnLab's Solution Consulting Division, said this application of controls was the result of focusing on enabling generative AI and internet use in the Korea Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Creativity's environment while protecting work information by classification. She also said the company plans to use the experience gained in this project to support N2SF adoption and expansion at a range of institutions.
