Introduction of new technologies such as fingerprint anti-magnification and surface structure control technology
Marking its 15th anniversary this year, the Japan Nanotech Exhibition is the world's largest nanotechnology exhibition, featuring exhibitors from diverse fields including materials, IT and electronics, biotechnology, environment and energy, and measuring instruments. Over 600 companies and organizations from around the world are participating in this exhibition across approximately 800 booths to showcase cutting-edge nanotechnology and products. CEKO plans to promote its proprietary vacuum deposition coating technology and surface modification capabilities to manufacturers of IT and electronic products, automotive glass, touchscreen panels used in various display fields, and optical lenses.
In particular, this exhibition introduces new technologies such as anti-fingerprint coating technology and surface structure control technology. The anti-fingerprint coating agent is a hydrophobic and lipophilic coating that disperses the lipid components of fingerprints to reduce reflected light, making fingerprints less visible even when they are applied. Surface structure control technology is a biomimetic technique that creates nano-protrusions on the substrate, similar to a moth's eye, to induce light scattering and provide anti-reflective functions as well as enhanced transmittance. CEKO has applied the water-repellent 'TopCleanSafe™' coating to these moth-eye structured surfaces to create a hydrophobic surface, improving durability and stain resistance while enhancing easy-clean characteristics.
The water-repellent product 'TopCleanSafe™' is coated with a thin film 10 to 20 nm thick on the surface of a substrate to exhibit excellent effects such as stain resistance, scratch resistance, and excellent surface slip, and can be applied to materials such as tempered glass, plastic, and metal. NanoPrimer™, which exhibits hydrophilic properties by increasing the surface energy of materials, enhances adhesion between the coating layer and materials such as tempered glass, plastics, and metals, and demonstrates excellent resistance to impact and high temperature and humidity. Additionally, water film coatings such as 'AWF' and 'CSC' are highly effective in preventing surface scratches and contamination.
CEKO's nano surface treatment agent is highly durable and significantly reduces the occurrence of fingerprints and contamination on display surfaces, so it is being applied in numerous domestic and international display and optical fields, including smartphone screens, tempered glass, and automotive rear cameras. In addition, through a technology that minimizes substrate surface roughness to create a smooth surface, it demonstrates a distinct difference in slip properties compared to other companies' products, earning recognition for its technological prowess from the relevant industry.
Meanwhile, CEKO has been officially designated as an internationally accredited testing laboratory by the Korea Accreditation Organization (KOLAS), having received recognition and evaluation of its quality system and technical capabilities in accordance with KS Q ISO/IEC 17025 legal and international requirements, and is accepting requests for accredited testing. In particular, it is the only organization in Korea to have obtained ISO/IEC 17025 certification from the KOLAS Accreditation Committee in the field of contact angle measurement (wetness of substrate glass). It provides a variety of testing services, including contact angle measurement, salt spray, high temperature and humidity, artificial climate, and antibacterial testing.

SalePoint Signs Multi-Year Partnership Agreement with AWS… Promoting Identity Security that Integrates Even AI Agents
Sailpoint has entered into a multi-year strategic partnership agreement with AWS and is moving forward with establishing an integrated governance system that manages both human and non-human identities together. The plan is to consistently manage access permissions in an environment where AI agents are increasing as work execution entities, while applying the principle of least privilege and automated policy enforcement. The two companies plan to jointly expand capabilities to manage the identities of various entities, including AI agents, within a single layer in the AWS environment. This collaboration is interpreted as a move to design security and governance together in corporate environments where AI adoption is expanding.

Databricks Unveils Open AI Security Monitoring 'Lakewatch'
Databricks entered the security market on March 24 by unveiling LakeWatch, an open-source agentic SIEM. The core functionality of this product is to integrate and analyze security, IT, and business data in a single environment to support AI-based threat detection and investigation. The company explained that it reduces the limitations of existing security operations centers, which have had to forgo some data due to high cost structures, and enables large-scale data analysis and automation based on open formats and ecosystems. LakeWatch is currently offered as a private preview, with Adobe and Dropbox mentioned as early customers. Databricks also announced an expanded partnership with Anthropic as well as the acquisition of Antimatter and SiftD.ai.

ETRI Develops Multimodal AI Technology That Retains Existing Information Even When Learning New Knowledge
The Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) has developed a technology that reduces the "catastrophic forgetting" problem, where multimodal AI loses existing information while learning new knowledge. This technology works by separately storing image and text information and connecting them only when needed, focusing on reducing knowledge loss in existing models while improving response accuracy to complex questions. The research results were accepted at the NeurIPS 2025 artificial intelligence academic conference, and potential applications were suggested for fields requiring continuous updates, such as policies and regulations, product information, and industrial data.
