Authorised Personnel Only—How This Korean Access Management System Can Level Up Your Cybersecurity

SINGAPORE - Nov. 11, 2021 - PRLog -- Companies in Singapore have been rapidly digitalising their work processes, a change that has only been sped up by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has redefined our standard ways of working. However, technology has its risks, and in 2020, the Smart Nation and Digital Government Office (SNDGO) reported 108 cases of data leaks (https://www.straitstimes.com/tech/tech-news/public-sector-data-leaks-total-108-last-year-up-from-75-cases-in-2019) by the Singapore Government, up 44 per cent from 75 occurrences in 2019.

As the usage of technology becomes the norm in our day-to-day work, there is an increasing need for secure access management systems, especially when employees are working remotely. Recognising that IT security threats are increasing alongside technological advancement, NETAND (https://netand.co.kr/en/), Korea's leading access management vendor has brought HIWARE, its patented Identity and Access management solution over to Singapore.

HIWARE consists of six solutions— System Access Control, System Identity Management, Database Management System (DBMS) Access Control, DBMS Identity Management, AD Identity Management and Mobile OTP, which can be integrated into a single user interface for ease of security management. As with all access management systems, users can be programmed to be either administrators or workers, and can only perform tasks matching their designation. Passwords are automatically managed and all user activity is logged.

With more than 1,200 customers in South Korea, HIWARE is actively protecting reputable esteemed international companies such as Samsung, Hyundai and LG, and is the premier choice for corporations dealing with sensitive information and data. Its access management system is also employed in large banks in Southeast Asia, such as the ACLEDA Bank in Cambodia and the Philippine BPI Bank. Now available in Singapore, HIWARE can be purchased directly from NETAND, or through DIGINIUS, its local partner.
