[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] SK Broadband announced on the 5th that it will supply cloud PCs to the Korea Agency for Infrastructure Technology Advancement (KAIA). By adopting these cloud PCs, KAIA has become the first public institution to simultaneously implement network separation and a telecommuting environment in line with government policies.


Cloud PCs are services that create a 'Work Anywhere' environment, allowing users to work from anywhere using various devices such as desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones as long as they are connected to the internet. SK Broadband has commercialized core cloud PC technologies based on domestic original technology. It features no license fees payable to foreign companies, and its processing speed and user capacity per server are more than twice as improved compared to foreign providers.


Particular attention was paid to security. Even when using a single PC, file transfers between the work virtual PC (cloud PC) and the physical PC (designated device for external internet use) require administrator approval through a network linkage solution. All work-related data is stored encrypted on the cloud PC server and ECM (Enterprise Contents Management), completely preventing external leaks. Additionally, beyond the existing OTP (One Time Password) integration, fingerprint recognition functionality was newly developed to enhance security.


KAIA aims to establish a smart work environment prepared for the COVID-19 era through this project. Since one PC can access both the internal work network and the general internet network, it is expected to reduce operating costs and improve work efficiency.


SK Broadband stated, “Supplying to public institutions that prioritize trust, security, and stability will bring new changes to the cloud PC market, which is dominated by foreign companies. The adoption of cloud PCs also contributes to creating social value by reducing discarded PC resources, lowering power and carbon consumption, preventing information leakage damage, and decreasing software piracy damage.”


Son Bong-su, Director of KAIA, said, “Cloud PCs are a core service that aligns with the joint government ministries’ ‘Six Priority Tasks for Digital Government Innovation.’ This project is the first case of work method innovation in a public institution that simultaneously implements network separation and a telecommuting environment. We will take a leading role in carbon neutrality and the Green New Deal sector and realize ESG by adopting SK Broadband’s cloud PCs, which offer cost efficiency and ease of use.”



Lee Bang-yeol, Head of SK Broadband’s Corporate Division, said, “Based on native cloud PC technology and proven service capabilities, we will contribute to implementing a public smart work environment, establishing digital infrastructure for elementary, middle, and high schools, expanding remote work for small and medium enterprises, and creating social value.”
