AhnLab held its customer technology conference, AhnLab Tech Summit 2026, at L-Tower in Yangjae-dong, Seoul, on the 22nd and shared a security strategy centered on AI. Chosun Biz, Boannews, iNews24 and EBN reported that AhnLab announced the details on the 23rd.
Outlets described the nature of the event slightly differently. iNews24 called it an annual technology event that introduces the latest cyber threats and responses to security officers at client companies, while EBN described it as an annual customer event sharing know-how on responding to the latest threats using AhnLab's products and services. Digital Daily said the audience was key security officers at public institutions and financial firms, and EBN mentioned clients from a range of industries this year, including public, financial, enterprise, manufacturing and IT.
Accounts of the strategy also vary. Chosun Biz reported that AhnLab presented a strategy of developing AI as a core pillar of its entire product and service portfolio. Datanet wrote that the company unveiled a next-generation security strategy centered on AI, and EBN's headline said it revealed a customized AI security roadmap for clients. Digital Today introduced AhnLab as an AI-native security platform company and wrote that the event covered a 2027 product and service roadmap and the latest threat trends.
Boannews gave the background that AhnLab introduced a strategy to strengthen its AI security business as AI automates and sophisticates security threats. Datanet and Boannews named Kang Seok-kyun as AhnLab's chief executive.
AhnLab also took part in GovWare 2026, a security event held in Singapore from the 13th to the 15th. Chosun Biz and Digital Today reported on the 18th that AhnLab presented items such as an AI security operations center (SOC) under its integrated brand, AhnLab AI Plus. The Tech Summit differs in that it was aimed at domestic customers rather than being an overseas exhibition.
