PRIBIT Technology: Providing a Safe Data Transmission Environment
Young-Rang Kim, CEO and FounderThat’s where the Zero Trust model has emerged as a counter strategy to these fundamental problems in networking and communication.
One of the proponents of this push is PRIBIT Technology, changing the game with its PacketGo solution. Complying with Zero Trust principles, it eliminates the possibility of unauthorized access for identified users, authorized applications, data, devices, infrastructure and networks. This forward-thinking approach discards outdated network communication practices and embraces a proactive security stance.
PacketGo ensures that all access requests are premised on strict and persistent verification and identification. This means that no one, regardless of location or role, is trusted by default. Every access request is scrutinized to ensure it meets the stringent criteria set forth by the system, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and potential security breaches. This method has proven to be a more effective means of securing data and systems, especially in environments with limited protection.
“Zero Trust represents a paradigm shift in security architecture, moving away from the traditional model that relied heavily on one-time authentication. Through PacketGo, we employ many advanced technologies to solidify the Zero Trust architecture,” says Young-Rang Kim, CEO and founder of PRIBIT Technology.
At its core, PacketGo has three key components. First is the software-defined perimeter (SDP), which dynamically creates secure perimeters around user groups, applications and data.
It hides critical resources from unauthorized users so that only verified entities interact with the network.
The second component is micro-segmentation. This technique involves dividing the network into smaller, isolated segments that operate independently, allowing for more granular control over data flow and access permissions. Lastly, PacketGo uses advanced identity governance to ensure every access request is continuously authenticated and authorized, which forms the third component, enhanced identity governance (EIG). This involves rigorous monitoring and management of user identities and their permissions, ensuring that access rights are always up-to-date and aligned with security policies.
All the three components work in tandem to provide robust security for complex hybrid cloud environments, local networks, remote users and devices, applications, data and infrastructure across various locations.
A prime example of this transformative approach is PRIBIT’s collaboration with POSCO International.
POSCO International, with its extensive network of 80 affiliates and subsidiary offices worldwide, faced significant challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. The surge in remote working and the need for secure international connections across its business units underscored the requirement for a safe and effective remote access platform. By leveraging PacketGo, POSCO registered a 70 percent reduction in unsecured access attempts, a 56-fold increase in communication bandwidth efficiency, a twofold increase in access speed and a remarkable 95 percent reduction in costs.
PRIBIT’s success is rooted in the fact that the company primarily focus on security alone controlling communication and data flow. This approach, combined with the company’s proprietary technology, ensures robust user identity management, network connectivity and policy management across network layers. PacketGo is also backed by over 158 patents and trademark rights across Korea, the U.S., Japan, the EU and other regions.
Another point of differentiation stems from PRIBIT’s extensive range of services—consulting, training, on-site support, 24/7 support, monitoring, reporting, and regular updates—which provides clients with the peace of mind that comes from knowing their digital assets are secure. Along these lines, to ensure long-term security and success for its clients, PRIBIT plans to expand the product roadmap and lineup to evolve its business into an MSSP (Managed Security Service Provider) model.
Looking ahead, PRIBIT is also poised to expand into next-generation technologies such as 5G telecommunications, radio access networks and smart city infrastructures. The goal is to enhance user experiences by optimizing resources in collaboration with network security appliances and telecommunications companies while maintaining stringent security standards.
