This agreement aims to accelerate collaboration on new services such as Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), which is optimized for cloud environments. SASE refers to an integrated security solution that combines network connectivity and security into a single offering.

Both sides recognized the need to establish a security framework suitable for increasingly complex access environments.

Additionally, the companies plan to diversify their lineup of security solutions that meet global standards while also catering to the detailed requirements of individual enterprises, and to expand cooperation in promoting customized solution businesses.

Kwon stated, "We expect that cooperation with Fortinet will allow us to achieve global competitiveness in cloud security services," adding, "We will continue to strengthen our security service capabilities so that companies can confidently conduct their work." Delieu remarked, "Through our partnership with LG Uplus, we will introduce a wider range of security solutions to the Korean market."
