Genians Ranks No.1 in Public EDR Market for 7 Consecutive Years, Strengthening Leadership in the AI Security Era

Cybersecurity company Genians (CEO Lee Dongbum) announced on April 28 that it has maintained its market dominance by ranking first for seven consecutive years in the public EDR (Endpoint Detection & Response) procurement market.

According to the company, it retained the top spot with a 46% market share in 2025, based on data from the Public Procurement Service’s Nara Marketplace. Genians explained that this achievement stems from its continued technological competitiveness and customer trust, from the early stages of the EDR market in 2019 to the current AI-driven security environment, despite evolving cyber threats.

Since developing Korea’s first EDR, Genians has led the way in enhancing security visibility for public institutions and in the area of intelligent threat response. In particular, it was the first among domestic and international products to obtain the National Intelligence Service’s Security Function Certification, meeting the high security standards required in the public sector and contributing to the protection of the national administrative network and critical infrastructure.

This EDR solution has proven its effectiveness by being deployed on more than 750,000 agents across a variety of environments—including central government agencies, local governments, financial institutions, and large manufacturers. Furthermore, with over 200 references, its stability has been validated, and Genians is recognized as a leading EDR company thanks to its integrated security platform based on a single console.

Recently, the emergence of Anthropic’s AI model, Mythos, has further advanced intelligent cyberattacks, making EDR solutions that detect abnormal endpoint behavior and identify threats in real time even more critical. In fact, AI-driven cyber threats were a major topic at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank (WB) meetings held in Washington, D.C., USA. In Korea, there have also been government-level discussions on responses, with the Financial Supervisory Service highlighting the need for EDR inspections in the financial sector.

Genians EDR is a technology that continuously analyzes endpoint activities to detect and respond to threats, allowing identification at the earliest stages of hacking attempts and enabling complete traceability even after an incident occurs. By leveraging a machine learning engine and integrating with an AI-based CTI service, it can detect and respond to previously unknown malware.

In addition, last year the company introduced an integrated endpoint security platform that combines next-generation antivirus (AV), anti-ransomware (AR), and device control functionalities with EDR. This integrated strategy is gaining attention as an effective response in the era of AI-driven attacks.

CEO Lee Dongbum stated, “In an era where AIs like Mythos can design their own attack scenarios, security systems must be reorganized with the premise that cyber threats can materialize at any time. By combining Genians’ market-leading EDR technology—seven years in a row in the public sector—with AI-based automated response systems, we will provide an advanced endpoint security platform that can identify and block intelligent attacks in real time.”
