'Min-Gan Electronic Signature' Enables Application for National Secretary Service... Introduction of 'Simple Authentication'

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The National Secretary service, which provides vaccine vaccination information and daily life information, will be available for application through private electronic signatures such as Kakao and PASS.

On the 9th, the Ministry of the Interior and Safety announced that it has revamped the National Secretary website by applying 'simple authentication' to eliminate the inconvenience of logging in only through Government24 and to make it easier to apply for the National Secretary service.

Through the newly applied simple authentication service, anyone who has been issued a private electronic signature can use the National Secretary service on a PC or smartphone.

If you obtain one of the certificates from Kakao, telecommunications PASS (SKT, KT, LGU+), Korea Information Certificate (Samsung PASS), KB Kookmin Bank, or NHN Payco on the mobile app, you can use the National Secretary simple authentication login. Even after applying simple authentication, Government24 members can apply for the National Secretary service without separate login by logging into Government24 as before.

The National Secretary has been providing vaccine vaccination information and various daily life information notification services through the Naver app, KakaoTalk, Toss, and text messages chosen by citizens since March 29. So far, it has provided over 30 million notifications, including vaccine reservation information and post-vaccination precautions, to more than 10 million citizens, guiding them to receive vaccinations without missing them. In addition, about 200,000 users who applied for the daily life information notification service have received a total of about 250,000 notifications, including traffic fines and health checkup guidance.

The Ministry of the Interior and Safety plans to improve the system from the 10th so that users can log in to the National Secretary with simple authentication to apply for notification services and easily apply for National Secretary notification services after making reservations on the vaccine pre-reservation site without separate login.

Minister Jeon Hae-cheol said, “With the application of simple authentication this time, we expect that the 'National Secretary' notification service can be easily applied for and more citizens will be able to receive daily life information notifications,” adding, “We will continue to collaborate with related organizations to expand various daily life information notifications and add private channels used by citizens.”
