FasooAI has introduced a source code security solution based on virtualization technology.

According to FasooAI on September 2, the 'DRM Source Code Security' solution adopts a virtualization-based isolation and protection method, unlike previous approaches. This allows users to securely protect the source code—which is a core organizational asset—while working in a variety of development environments without significant inconvenience.


Source code contains a company's technical capabilities, development know-how, and core intellectual property (IP), so its leakage can seriously undermine a company's competitiveness. In addition, vulnerabilities or authentication information embedded in the source code can be exploited for cyberattacks, further heightening the risks associated with a breach. However, the diverse range of development tools and applications used with source code makes it challenging to implement consistent security measures. Moreover, conventional file-level encryption methods can overload systems and slow down work processes, ultimately reducing operational efficiency. As a result, there is often reluctance to apply security solutions that are perceived as inconvenient.


By moving away from existing methods and adopting a virtualization-based approach, FasooAI minimizes system load while maintaining the development environment. This method isolates and encrypts the development environment itself, addressing traditional performance degradation issues caused by repetitive, file-level operations, and ensures work productivity. Since the solution is not dependent on any specific application, it can be applied across various development tool environments, reducing the burden of having to maintain each application individually during updates. Developers are only able to save data to designated secure drives, making it impossible to store data on unauthorized drives, thereby preventing incidents of insider leakage.


The source code security solution from FasooAI can be deployed as an expanded software option in 'Fasoo Enterprise DRM (FED) 6.' FED 6, FasooAI's flagship data security solution, encrypts documents across both local and cloud environments, offering features such as access control by user role and activity tracking. When integrated with FED 6, the source code solution enables additional capabilities, including screen capture prevention, watermark insertion, clipboard control, print restriction, and usage history monitoring.



CTO Kyungkoo Yoon stated, "FasooAI, a company that has been at the forefront of the global data security market, has launched a groundbreaking source code security solution capable of preventing persistent and fatal source code leakage incidents. With this completely new approach, it delivers the same ease of use as before implementing security, while ensuring robust protection of source code. As a result, we expect to pioneer a new frontier in what has been an underdeveloped source code security market."
