Everyday Remote Work... S1's 'Cloud Solution' Demand Surges

Document Centralization Solution 78% Increase

An S-1 employee is explaining the features of the document centralization solution to a customer.

Since the pandemic, remote work has become widespread, making 'cloud' a core technology in the spotlight. In the security industry as well, information protection using cloud technology has emerged as an essential element of corporate management, leading to an increase in related solution sales.

According to S-1 (CEO Namgung Beom) on the 9th, recent sales of cloud solutions have significantly increased. First, the 'Document Centralization Solution' saw an average sales increase of 78% from January to April this year compared to last year. This solution, which stores documents on cloud servers to prevent potential information leaks through various channels in remote work environments primarily using personal PCs, is gaining popularity. The Document Centralization Solution allows users to create and encrypt documents directly within the cloud server, enabling safe work without hacking risks even during remote work. Additionally, saving documents worked on in the cloud server to a personal PC requires administrator approval, preventing document leaks caused by internal employees.

The 'Cloud Manager' also saw a 197% increase in sales last year compared to the previous year. This solution helps efficiently manage the 52-hour workweek using cloud technology. S-1 explained that with just an internet-connected PC, work data of employees can be checked anytime and anywhere. Cloud Manager stores data on cloud servers, reducing the risk of data loss due to PC failures or viruses.

S-1's cloud security monitoring service also saw an average sales increase of 115% from the beginning of this year to April compared to the same period last year. This service monitors cloud servers and takes immediate action in case of security incidents. Information security experts at S-1’s Convergence Security Center detect and respond to security threats 24/7, providing detailed weekly and monthly reports.

The increase in sales of these cloud solutions is interpreted as a result of remote work becoming a daily routine. According to the Korea Labor Institute, 75.2% of companies that implemented remote work intend to maintain it, and 72.8% of workers who have experienced remote work responded that they want to continue using it even after COVID-19. Accordingly, cloud solution providers have increased by more than 20% compared to before COVID-19. Global market research firm Gartner expects the domestic cloud market size to grow more than threefold from 3.7 trillion KRW this year to 11.6 trillion KRW by 2025.

An S-1 official said, "As remote work becomes a daily routine even in the post-COVID era, demand for cloud solutions among small and medium-sized enterprises continues to increase," adding, "As the number one company in the security industry, we will lead the industry by launching various cloud solutions to prevent security incidents in SMEs."
