[Asia Economy Reporter Jin-gyu Lee] The Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA) announced on the 3rd that it signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Gyeonggi-do Business & Science Accelerator (GBSA) at the Startup Campus in Pangyo Techno Valley to cooperate on information security and security in the Fourth Industrial Revolution sector for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

Gyeonggi-do is home to the largest number of SMEs in the country, with approximately 826,000 companies, and is a region with very high demand for information security support, especially as it includes Pangyo Techno Valley, a domestic ICT and data company cluster.

KISA initiated the MoU with GBSA to promote information security and activate the security industry for SMEs in Gyeonggi-do. Both organizations agreed to collaborate on ▲ information security consulting for SMEs ▲ training of specialized personnel in convergence security and information security ▲ discovering joint projects in the Fourth Industrial Revolution and convergence security fields.

Kim Seok-hwan, Director of KISA, stated, "Information security is an essential prerequisite for the activation of non-face-to-face services and the data economy, and cooperation on information security in Gyeonggi-do, where the largest number of SMEs are located, holds great significance. We will continue to strengthen information security cooperation with local governments in various regions."
