[Market Focus] Hanssak Surges as KT and Samsung SDS Clients Highlighted Amid NIRS Recovery Efforts

Hanssak, a developer of inter-network data transmission security solutions, is experiencing a strong surge in its stock price. This is attributed to growing expectations that Hanssak, a client of companies such as Samsung SDS, KT Cloud, and NHN Cloud, will benefit as these firms participate in disaster recovery efforts for the National Information Resources Service (NIRS).

As of 9:47 a.m. on October 1, Hanssak's stock price had risen by 10.92% from the previous day, reaching 6,500 won.

The news that the government is pushing to transfer work to the Daegu Center's Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Cloud Zone, following the paralysis of the main computer systems at the NIRS Daejeon headquarters due to a fire, appears to have served as a positive catalyst.

PPP is a model where private cloud service providers offer resources based on the administrative network and physical security of the NIRS. As a result, the importance of technologies such as network boundary protection, encryption key management, and access control is being highlighted. Hanssak is the leading company in the inter-network data transmission solution market, specializing in controlling the flow of data and information between network domains with different security levels. Its clients include Samsung SDS, KT Cloud, and NHN Cloud, all of which are participating in the NIRS recovery efforts.
