Hancomwith said on the 15th it is joining the Medical AI Alliance (MAA), a group of Korea's leading medical artificial intelligence (AI) corporations, to launch a new business that fuses security and healthcare.
Hancomwith will take part in the MAA to help build the next-generation medical data platform Life Networks. The MAA is a consortium of leading bio and medical AI corporations in Korea and abroad, including SELVAS AI, Mediana, HLB Global, JLK, and Indonesia's Siloam Hospitals Group, and aims to create an independent data platform capable of competing with global big tech corporations.
Hancomwith will be responsible for the core security infrastructure of Life Networks, based on public key infrastructure (PKI) cryptographic authentication and data security technologies it has accumulated for more than 20 years. It also plans to help raise the security level of the data utilization ecosystem to global standards and strengthen trust.
Specifically, it will provide an encryption- and authentication-based security infrastructure for the safe storage, distribution, and use of medical data. Through the AI facial authentication solution Hancom Auth, it will enhance the accessibility and security of medical services. It will also play a role in building an essential security system for personal information protection and the use of public healthcare data.
Life Networks, which the MAA is building, is an innovative platform that encompasses data held by participating companies, personal health information (medical MyData), and daily activity records (lifelog). Based on integrated data, the platform is expected to dramatically improve participants' R&D efficiency by supporting new drug development and clinical design optimization.
Song Sang-yeop, CEO of Hancomwith, said, "The more valuable medical data becomes, the more important data trust and security are," and added, "With Hancomwith's unrivaled security technology, we will help Life Networks establish itself as the safest and most reliable global medical data platform."
