Korea Zinc Accelerates Entry into European Secondary Battery Materials Market... Obtains Local Information Security Certification

Korea Zinc announced on the 6th that it has obtained the European information security certification TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment) Level 3 for its Seoul headquarters and subsidiary KZAM.

TISAX is based on the information security assessment by the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), which considers the international standards for information security management systems ISO/IEC 27001 and 27002. It evaluates the company's security management system in four aspects: ▲ information security ▲ partner security ▲ data protection ▲ prototype protection. The targets are automobile manufacturers, service providers, and suppliers.

Hwang In-gu, Chief Information Security Officer of Korea Zinc, explained the background of obtaining this certification, stating, "We pursued this to support our entry into the European market related to the secondary battery materials business."

Korea Zinc is making various efforts to strengthen information security. In 2021, it established an information security team and appointed and operates a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) as an executive. In line with ESG management, it also discloses the composition and activities of the information security organization, related certifications, and evaluations to enhance trust among customers and internal and external stakeholders.
