KT announced it is providing its self-developed "AI Email Security Service" to the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) to strengthen email security systems.
KAIST has adopted KT's AI security solution after technical validation, establishing a foundation for implementing a cloud-based AI email security service across the university, having passed a security review by the National Intelligence Service.
KT will provide AI-based threat detection and advanced persistent threat (APT) response systems for all KAIST members. This service aims to detect and block sophisticated email attacks, protecting the university's key research and educational assets.
The KT AI Email Security service is a cloud security solution that detects and blocks cyber threats via email, including ransomware and phishing emails, using AI technology. It employs a three-tier filtering system that includes spam blocking, AI-based threat detection, and precise APT analysis to counter intelligent threats such as phishing URLs disguised as legitimate emails and malicious files. KT also obtained Cloud Security Assurance Program (CSAP) certification for its "AI Email Security" solution this year.
Unlike traditional APT security solutions, this cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) integrates spam, AI, and APT security functions.
With this implementation, KT plans to expand its AI email security business to major research and educational institutions, including domestic universities and government-funded research organizations. The company aims to support institutions that feel burdened by the need for specialized security personnel and infrastructure, enabling them to utilize AI-based threat detection and APT analysis capabilities.
Baek Seung-taek, head of KT's Enterprise Division's Western Corporate Customer Headquarters, stated, "Through KT's AI security technology, we will safely protect KAIST members and research and educational assets, and based on this case, we will expand AI security services to universities and research institutions."
