KB Kookmin Bank to verify next-generation authentication security technology with Aton

KB Kookmin Bank will move to verify next-generation authentication security technology to respond to security threats stemming from the commercialisation of quantum computers. The bank said it signed a memorandum of understanding with Aton on June 4 to test an authentication system based on post-quantum cryptography. It plans to check whether secure authentication services can be provided in a quantum computing environment and whether the technology can be applied to logins, transfers and electronic signatures.
