DataUniverse Co., Ltd., an ICT company providing essential data-driven services to address social issues, announced that it has provided "new financial fraud prevention content" free of charge to the Jincheon Police Station in Chungbuk.

The background for DataUniverse providing this content lies in its flagship service, "Smart Phishing Protection." Smart Phishing Protection offers features for phishing prevention, such as "voice phishing suspicious call alerts," "smishing suspicious text alerts," and "malicious app and URL scanning."

To quickly detect and help prevent new phishing techniques, Smart Phishing Protection combines and analyzes big data related to phishing scams from domestic and international internet sources with types of phishing scams reported to financial institutions. Based on this analysis, it publishes and provides "new financial fraud prevention content" twice a week.

The phishing prevention content provided to Jincheon Police Station includes types of scams that people can easily fall victim to in daily life, such as the increasingly prevalent "prosecutor impersonation voice phishing schemes" using pretexts like court registration or card delivery, as well as cases of voice phishing exploiting personal information leaks. Jincheon Police Station plans to use this content to create promotional leaflets for public distribution, utilizing them in external voice phishing prevention education and store visit campaigns.

Kang Wonseok, CEO of DataUniverse, stated, "It is crucial to quickly recognize the latest information in order to respond to increasingly sophisticated phishing techniques," and added, "We will continue to expand our activities to eradicate voice phishing and contribute to building a safer society free from phishing scams."

Meanwhile, since 2023, DataUniverse has been conducting a subway voice phishing prevention campaign and is actively fulfilling its social responsibility by providing the Smart Phishing Protection service free of charge to partner subscribers aged 65 and older. In addition, next year, the company plans to hold a competition to discover new service concepts for AI-based phishing and scam prevention.
