High security through a technology that hides keys using algorithms with only software, without hardware.

Kuntek announced that it has launched 'whiteCryption Code Protection' and 'whiteCryption Secure Key Box,' application protection solutions from Intertrust, a global provider of digital asset management and software tamper-proof technology, in Korea to secure the personal information of mobile app users, and is strengthening its efforts to target the mobile and IoT security markets.

White-box cryptography and application code protection technologies are emerging as key tools for protecting software content and data on smart devices. White-box cryptography is a technology that completely hides keys through encryption algorithms using only software, without the need for conventional security hardware; it offers high security because the encryption key does not remain in memory.

Whitecryption solutions can be applied to the entertainment sector requiring nDRM implementation and content protection, the medical sector requiring FDA approval for proprietary algorithms, personal user information protection, and app integrity assurance, the financial services sector requiring protection for mobile payment and mobile banking apps, mobile solutions requiring security for subscription management apps, the automotive app development sector for developing secure applications for automotive manufacturers, the avionics sector for security for in-flight entertainment systems and BYOD apps, and the IoT sector requiring protection for mobile apps during inter-device communication.

WhiteCryption supports the protection of customers' software assets by enabling the easy application of embedded data encryption technology, which is certified to FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards, a U.S. regulation on encryption and security requirements), starting from the product development stage.

The application protection solutions 'whiteCryption Code Protection' and 'whiteCryption Secure Key Box' provide the latest anti-reverse engineering and cryptographic key hiding technologies to eliminate security threats to mobile apps and IoT devices, thereby protecting developers' software from hacker threats and enabling them to achieve world-class security.
 
whiteCryption Secure Key Box is a software-based white-box encryption solution that eliminates the need for security hardware (TPM, HSM, etc.) by applying key encryption technology certified to the U.S. FIPS 140-2 Level 1. Based on patented, powerful mathematical code transformation, whiteCryption Secure Key Box provides industry-leading protection by completely hiding encryption keys at all times. In particular, developers can easily apply white-box encryption technology to existing products simply by using libraries provided by whiteCryption, significantly contributing to the enhancement of product and service competitiveness by reducing manufacturing costs and increasing efficiency, development productivity, and ease of redistribution.

Whitecryption Code Protection is an application anti-hacking solution that enhances the resilience of software application code to block tampering and reverse engineering attacks used by malicious attackers to access critical information and resources contained within applications. By providing patented obfuscation and encryption capabilities, Whitecryption Code Protection allows developers to easily apply code obfuscation, anti-debug protection, and anti-piracy measures without external assistance to protect application integrity. Furthermore, Whitecryption Code Protection supports the detection of Apple iOS jailbreaks and Android rooting, as well as license protection for the industry's widest range of operating systems, including Google Play. It also supports CPUs from all vendors and various programming languages, such as Java, Android, C, and C++.
