Data Security Measures

Protecting your information isn't just about compliance – it's about maintaining the trust you place in us when sharing sensitive financial and personal details.

Technical Safeguards

We encrypt all data in transit using TLS 1.3 protocols and store personal information in encrypted databases with restricted access controls. Our systems undergo regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.

Administrative Protections

Only authorized staff members can access personal information, and only when necessary for their job functions. All employees receive privacy training and sign confidentiality agreements. We maintain detailed logs of who accesses what information and when.

Physical Security

Our servers are housed in secure data centers with 24/7 monitoring, biometric access controls, and redundant backup systems. We maintain both local and geographically distributed backups to ensure data availability while protecting against unauthorized access.

International Data Transfers

While NextNwtwrk operates primarily within South Korea, some of our service providers may process data in other countries with equivalent data protection standards.

When we transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including standard contractual clauses approved by privacy authorities and adequacy decisions recognizing equivalent protection levels.
