[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] Duzon Bizon announced on the 14th that it will support security updates for all client companies in response to the security vulnerability of the open-source software 'Apache Log4j (hereinafter Log4j)'. As a measure to protect customers, proactive security measures will also be provided to client companies that have not subscribed to maintenance services.


Log4j is a program used to record logs necessary for software operation and management. If attackers such as hackers exploit the recently discovered security vulnerability to execute attack codes remotely, it can cause serious damage to companies, making prompt updates essential.


Duzon Bizon immediately launched an emergency update for all corporate clients using its products, regardless of whether they have subscribed to maintenance services, as soon as the security vulnerability was revealed. Security measures have already been completed for clients subscribed to maintenance services. As part of responsible management, security measures are being rapidly implemented for clients not subscribed to maintenance services through individual contact.


In particular, customers using products and solutions in a cloud SaaS (Software as a Service) manner can be assured that even if similar security issues arise in the future, they will receive immediate and continuous security services without separate measures.


Duzon Bizon plans to take proactive measures centered on the customer center to ensure flawless security to protect customers and prevent damage until the Log4j issue is resolved.


Meanwhile, this case serves as an opportunity to highlight the importance of software maintenance. Unlike defect repairs guaranteed at the time of product purchase, the necessity of maintenance services supported through separate contracts has often been underestimated. Although this security measure is being proactively implemented on a grand scale due to the seriousness of the matter, the government also recommends entering into maintenance contracts for stable software operation.



Jiyonggu, Head of the Solution Business Division at Duzon Bizon, said, “Since this is the largest vulnerability discovered in the history of modern computing environments, we took proactive measures to protect our customers,” adding, “As a leading company supporting corporate digital transformation, we will contribute to fostering a corporate culture that enhances the fundamental value of coexistence with customers as part of responsible management.”
