Winner of the 2025 Cybersecurity Breakthrough Award

Sensestone (CEO Changhoon Yoo), a company specializing in authentication security, has been recognized for its contribution to leading global IoT-OT security innovation.

Senstone announced on the 13th that it was selected as the 'Comprehensive IoT Security Solution of the Year' at the '2025 CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards' through its global headquarters swIDch.

With this, Senstone has proven its technological prowess and innovation in the global certification security field by winning awards for four consecutive years since 2020.

This award is a recognition of the excellence of OTAC (One-Time Authentication Code), a proprietary technology of Senstone.

OTAC is a dynamic token method that enables secure authentication even in one-way communication environments, fundamentally resolving the vulnerabilities of existing fixed-value-based authentication.

In particular, it eliminates security gaps from ultra-small IoT devices to industrial OT endpoints with 'preemptive authentication' that blocks hacking at the initial access stage rather than through post-detection methods.

The Cybersecurity Breakthrough Awards is an international security awards ceremony now in its 11th year, with over 5,000 entries from around the world. Jung Senstone won the award alone.

Selected as an innovative company in key security fields such as cloud, web, encryption, and identity verification, Senstone was recognized for its unrivaled technological prowess in the IoT-OT intersection.

Senstone was recently selected as a "Promising PLC Security Company" at the Global Infosec Awards, and is expanding its security application cases to domestic and international industrial sites, such as promoting a project to strengthen water facility OT security with the Korea Water Resources Corporation.

CEO Yoo Chang-hoon stated, “SensTone will build a safer industrial environment through a preemptive preventive system that can block unauthorized commands before they reach OT devices.”
