Fasoo AI supports overseas expansion of K-defense with U.S.-validated cryptographic module

[Financial News] Fasoo AI has equipped its supply chain data security collaboration platform, ‘Rhapsody Eco,’ with a cryptographic module certified under the U.S. Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP). The move addresses the strict data security standards required by North American government agencies and the defense industry, supporting South Korean defense companies as they expand their overseas businesses.
Fasoo AI announced on the 10th that it had equipped Rhapsody Eco with a CMVP-certified cryptographic module.
The CMVP is a cryptographic module validation program operated by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Canada’s Communications Security Establishment (CSE). It is used as a key security requirement in procurement by the federal governments and public institutions of the United States and Canada.
Rhapsody Eco is a collaboration platform that prevents data leaks when companies share important documents with external partners or research institutions. It allows access permissions to be set for each user and changed or revoked even after documents have been shared. The platform also tracks document usage history and automatically syncs documents to the latest version when they are viewed.
With the addition of a U.S. CMVP-certified module alongside its existing module certified under the National Intelligence Service Korea Cryptographic Module Validation Program (KCMVP), Rhapsody Eco can now meet domestic and international security requirements. The platform is particularly aimed at demand from defense companies that need to share sensitive data, including design drawings, research materials and test documents, with overseas partners.
Kang Bong-ho, head of the Service Business Division at Fasoo AI, said, “Data protection capabilities are now essential for entry into global supply chains,” adding, “We will support global collaboration for defense companies through Rhapsody Eco’s validated encryption and granular access controls.”
