Gison's Hacking Detection System in the spotlight
Gison, a domestic wireless security company, announced on the 15th that it has signed a series of contracts with global semiconductor manufacturing companies to supply "wireless backdoor hacking detection systems." The contract is drawing attention from the industry in that, amid the recent explosion of hacking threats using artificial intelligence (AI), the state-of-the-art manufacturing industry, which is an intensive industry of national core technologies, has begun to strengthen wireless security in earnest.
Recently, the biggest topic in the security industry is the rapid development of hacking technology that combines AI such as 'Mythos'. As AI finds vulnerabilities in wired networks in real time and automatically generates attack codes, wired hacking is becoming much stronger, more sophisticated, and more common than in the past. In this situation, major companies and state agencies are fully introducing "network separation" that completely blocks contact with the external Internet to protect information, or extremely strengthening Internet security and locking the latch.
However, as the main gate was completely blocked by strong security policies, hackers naturally began to turn to the "wireless backdoor," a detour. It is a stealth method in which a nail-sized "wireless spy chip" is secretly planted inside the computer during parts production or maintenance, and confidential information is stolen from the outside by secret radio using its own radio frequency (RF) rather than an Internet line or WiFi. Even the highest-class network separation system, which has completely disconnected the Internet, is inevitably disabled in front of this wireless spy chip.
As wireless backdoor attacks that disable wired firewalls have become a reality, the 'wireless backdoor hacking detection system' has emerged as the only solution in the market. In fact, large financial companies are the first to detect and respond to the threat. Korea's leading commercial banks, including Shinhan Bank, Kookmin Bank and Woori Bank, have preemptively introduced and operated Gison's wireless backdoor hacking detection system to protect assets and customer information.
Following existing large financial companies, this time, advanced semiconductor companies have begun introducing Gison's system in earnest to protect design drawings and manufacturing process technology. Gison's system monitors the air inside the server room in real time 24 hours a day, and immediately tracks and blocks the location when an unapproved unfamiliar radio frequency occurs even for a second.
"In the past, we believed that it would be safe to set up an Internet firewall well, but in the era of AI hacking, there is no point in separating wired networks if we do not block the blind spot of wireless," a security industry official said. "The introduction of wireless backdoor hacking detection systems will become more common and become standard security guidelines in all major industries in the future, starting with major commercial banks and semiconductor conglomerates."
"As the competition for global technology hegemony and the threat of AI hacking intensify, the risk of wireless backdoor hacking, which is a hardware bypass attack, will inevitably increase," a Gison official said. "Based on this supply contract with semiconductor companies, we will expand our supply to major national institutions such as military, police, telecommunications, power, and medical, and present new standards for the global security market."
