Web technology has been used for decades, but after the era of Fourth Industrial Revolution, the technologies such as mobile, cloud, IoT&NAS, mail server, CCTV, source repository have proliferated explosively as well as web technology. However, security professionals to manage these systems are totally insufficient to ensure security. On the other hand, requirements from standards and compliances are on growth and checklists include well-known standards such as OWASP Top 10, PCI DSS(6.5.1-6.5.10), CWE/SANS Top 25 as well as common vulnerabilities such as Exposures(CVE), Common Weakness Enumeration(CWE), and Common Vulnerability Scoring System(CVSS). 

The level of security competence of South Korea is comparably high than other countries in Southeast Asia, but still many enterprises, even if they are in large scales or have qualified technical capabilities, have struggled to deal with security incidents due to the lack of security personnel. To solve the difficulty, High-Tech Bridge SA and NSHC will launch the Automated Web Scanning Service(ImmuniWeb® On-Demand) and Security Monitoring Service of digital assets on the cloud(ImmuniWeb® Discovery) in South Korea and Southeast Asia market.
