South Korea's National Security Office (NSO) held a joint public-private-military cybersecurity meeting on November 15 to review IT asset management and system architecture mapping.
The National Security Office (NSO) announced on November 15 that it held a "joint public-private-military cyber security response meeting" presided over by Song Kee-ho, Third Deputy Director of National Security. The meeting reviewed the management status of all information technology (IT) assets across various sectors.
System Architecture Review
During the meeting, an interim review was conducted on the complete survey of system and network architecture maps that has been underway since August across the private, public, and defense sectors. A joint situation assessment was also carried out regarding recent major domestic and international cyber incidents.
Through this interim review, we plan to swiftly establish a management system that keeps system and network architecture maps up to date.
Preventive Measures
The NSO plans to prepare various measures to preemptively prevent cybersecurity breaches, including acquiring vulnerability information at the pre-disclosure stage through foreign government agencies, software vendors, and relevant communities. The agency will also accelerate the implementation of the "Software Bill of Materials (SBOM)," which contains detailed software components to quickly identify systems that could be affected when vulnerabilities arise.
