Genians Supplies EDR Solution to E1

Genianus is expanding its influence in the EDR market by successfully securing new orders.

Cybersecurity specialist Genianus announced on the 29th that it has supplied its EDR solution to the domestic energy company E1.

Based on its LPG business, E1 is recently advancing as an eco-friendly energy company with hydrogen, blue ammonia, electric vehicle charging, and solar power generation businesses. This year, it achieved a record of 40 years without accidents. To create a safe working environment, it is actively utilizing digital technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and artificial intelligence (AI).

To respond to the digital environment, E1 is strengthening its cybersecurity capabilities. It was the first in the industry to acquire the Information Security and Personal Information Protection Management System Certification (ISMS-P), and decided to introduce an EDR solution to ensure business continuity and stability.

E1 set goals such as ▲securing threat visibility across networks, logs, and endpoints ▲early detection, blocking, and recovery from critical threats like ransomware, important information theft, and system disruption attacks, and reviewed various EDR products accordingly.

Genianus’ EDR solution, 'Genian EDR,' provides threat detection, analysis, and response through continuous monitoring and information collection on endpoints. By monitoring key behaviors occurring on endpoints and storing them in real time for analysis, it can detect and prevent advanced threats in advance and enable post-incident audit trails.

'Genian EDR' has received favorable evaluations in terms of technology and stability in various environments such as financial institutions and public organizations. The solution recorded an overwhelming 78% market share in the public procurement market last year. It is currently applied to over 600,000 agents. In 2022, it was the first domestic and international EDR product to pass the National Intelligence Service’s Security Compliance Verification System, proving its excellent security level.

As cyber threats such as APT and ransomware become more sophisticated recently, demand for EDR products that provide a safe security environment through rapid analysis and response is increasing. According to the global market research firm AMR, the worldwide EDR market size was $1.9 billion (approximately 2.5 trillion KRW) in 2021, and is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 25.3% from 2022 to 2031, reaching $18.3 billion (approximately 24.5 trillion KRW) by 2031.

Kim Junhyung, Executive Director of Genianus Endpoint Security Business Division, said, "Genian EDR is a proven product used by many clients including companies, financial institutions, and large public organizations where security is critical. We have secured various industry references and will use this opportunity to further strengthen our position in the growing EDR market."
