Private Technology said on Wednesday it signed a memorandum of understanding with IT infrastructure and information security consulting firm T&D Soft to cooperate on information security business.

The companies plan broad cooperation spanning consulting and solutions to expand joint business opportunities in the public sector market as adoption of N2SF and zero trust gains momentum.

Private Technology led N2SF and zero trust pilot projects last year for the Digital Platform Government (DPG) integrated platform as the main company.

Under the agreement, the companies plan to strengthen cooperation focused on public institutions' transition to N2SF and zero trust and to pursue joint projects combining their respective expertise. They plan to identify new opportunities based on security technologies and products needed to implement a zero trust environment and to set up a cooperation framework that extends through the adoption of solutions.

Young-rang Kim (김영랑), CEO of Private Technology, said, "N2SF and zero trust are key pillars of the transition in the public security system, and the ability to implement architecture and technology applicable to real environments is most important." She added, "We will contribute to establishing a practical security system that can help in the transition process for public institutions."
