Kim & Chang and the Korea Society of Information and Communication Law to Hold Seminar on "Security Issues and Legal Challenges in the Age of Agentic AI"
Examining Security Risks and Legal Responsibilities of Agentic AI That Autonomously Invokes Tools and Systems
Kim & Chang announced on May 8 that it will co-host a seminar titled "Security Issues and Legal Challenges in the Age of Agentic AI" with the Korea Society of Information and Communication Law on May 14 at the Crescendo Building in Jongno-gu, Seoul.
Agentic AI, which has recently drawn much attention, autonomously invokes tools and systems based on user instructions to perform work, and is expected to improve operational efficiency and productivity for companies. However, as it can also introduce security risks such as abuse of authority, prompt manipulation, information leakage during API integration, assignment of responsibility, and audit log management, the need to review institutional and governance aspects is also increasing.
This seminar will examine the technical security issues and legal challenges of agentic AI, based on these changes, and discuss practical directions for response.
The seminar will begin with an opening address by Lee Sungyeop, Professor at Korea University and President of the Korea Society of Information and Communication Law. This will be followed by a welcoming speech from lawyer Jung Youngjin of Kim & Chang. Choi Woo-hyuk, Policy Chief of the Information Protection Network Policy Office at the Ministry of Science and ICT, and Lee Wontae, Professor at Kookmin University and Special Chairman for Security at the Artificial Intelligence Strategy Committee, will deliver congratulatory remarks.
The presentations will be divided into two sessions. First, Park Sejun, CEO of Theory, will give a presentation on "Security Issues and Challenges of Agentic AI." Next, Kim Doyeob, lawyer at Kim & Chang, will present on "Legal Issues and Challenges of Agentic AI Security." After the presentations, Kwon Taekyung, Professor at Yonsei University and Chair of the Information Security Forum, will lead a comprehensive discussion.
Panelists include: ▲ Kim Yongdae, Professor at KAIST ▲ Kim Hyungjong, Professor at Seoul Women's University ▲ Ji Eun-kyung, Director of the Information Security Planning Division at the Ministry of Science and ICT ▲ Yoon Doosik, CEO of Irowon & Company ▲ Park Sejun, CEO of Theory ▲ Kang Hancheol, lawyer at Kim & Chang ▲ Kim Doyeob, lawyer at Kim & Chang. They will discuss security controls, legal responsibilities, and operational issues related to the spread of agentic AI.
