Obigo Selected as Lead Company for National Automotive Security Project
Obigo has been selected as the lead company in the automotive sector for the 'Supply Chain Security Model Establishment Support Project,' which is overseen by the Ministry of Science and ICT·and Korea Internet & Security Agency (KISA).
According to Obigo on July 15, 2026, the core objective of this project is to resolve blind spots in the security of automotive software supply chains. For this purpose, Obigo has formed a consortium with cybersecurity firm MCure to undertake the task of 'building an intelligent supply chain security model for automotive software security integration.' The Obigo consortium aims to address this challenge by developing a domestic, on-premises security system that is implemented within the organization, eliminating concerns about external data leaks and thereby securing data sovereignty.
The intelligent security model to be developed by the Obigo consortium will automatically extract automotive-specific security specification sheets (SBOMs) that meet government-recommended standards by analyzing source code, and will apply VEX (Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange) automatic generation technology based on analysis of potential vulnerability exploitation paths. Moving beyond conventional methods that simply notify the existence of vulnerabilities, this model will accurately identify only genuine threats on actual execution paths, drastically improving the accuracy rate for security error judgments. In particular, the system will automatically proceed with patching and verification upon threat detection, with the goal of greatly reducing the average response time in the event of a security incident and establishing a self-reliant defense mechanism for vehicle software.
Obigo plans to complete security validation for its in-vehicle AI content platform 'Pix Series,' which is set for global launch in response to requests from major global partners. Based on this, the company intends to proactively respond to increasing country-specific export technology barriers, such as SBOM submission requirements in the United States and Europe and global automotive security standards, thereby maximizing the global contract competitiveness of its platform.
