Proactive Response to Hacking Threats and Enhanced Personal Information Protection

Modusign announced on the 28th that it will jointly operate a "Security Vulnerability Reporting Reward Program" with the Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA). The Security Vulnerability Reporting Reward Program is a system in which external security experts, such as white hat hackers, are rewarded for reporting security vulnerabilities in the company's services.


As digital transformation accelerates, cyberattacks targeting contract and document data have increased, resulting in significantly higher security requirements for electronic document and electronic contract services. Through this collaboration, Modusign plans to strengthen scenario-based simulated training and infrastructure vulnerability assessments, thereby enhancing its ability to respond to hacking threats.

To date, Modusign has met the high security standards required in the private, public, and financial sectors by complying with the Electronic Signature Act and the Personal Information Protection Act, implementing financial industry-level data encryption, strengthening access controls, applying anti-tampering technologies, and establishing a log-based audit system.


Furthermore, as social damages caused by impersonation, phishing, and malicious messages increase, Modusign is enhancing security guidance for user protection and is also carrying out proactive prevention activities, such as upgrading the processes for reporting and blocking suspicious documents.



Lee Youngjun, CEO of Modusign, stated, "Since Modusign handles important information for both businesses and individuals, we believe security is a core element that determines our service quality. We will continue to conduct proactive assessments and investments to respond to increasingly sophisticated hacking threats, and together with KISA, we aim to provide the safest and most trustworthy electronic signature service in Korea."
