Founded in 2017, we are a security solution company specializing in PUF (Physical Unclonable Function) technology. Since the company began mass-producing PUF chips shortly after its establishment, it has been building and delivering various security platforms to leading domestic and foreign companies. ICTK is the only company in Korea that has met all the 'RoT' (Root of Trust) requirements of the Internet of Things (IoT) Security Division of the Global Semiconductor Association (GSA), and our unique technology, 'VIA PUF', is now officially registered with GSA. In particular, in December 2020, PUF technology was officially established as an international standard (ISO/IEC 20897), and we are looking forward to the accompanying growth of the related domestic industry. In July 2021, we were also certified as a CMVP by the Korea National Intelligence Service. As a result of 10 years of R&D, we have registered a total of 109 domestic and foreign patents as of the end of 2022. 55 patents have been filed and are currently undergoing the registration process. In addition to design assets (IP) for system-on-chip (SoC), we are continuously enhancing our RoT technology, which is the root of security, including RoT chips, security modules, security networks, firmware security updates (FOTA), device firmware protection, and PUF embedded USIMs and eSIMs. Recently, we have been introducing world-class security products, such as next-generation VPN equipment that combines our unique Via PUF technology with quantum-resistant encryption (PQC). ICTK would like to do our best to provide a safer foundation for smart life by providing powerful security solutions based on hardware (HW), from security chips to services. Thank you.
