Problem

Following the Coupang data breach, the Personal Information Protection Commission has announced emergency inspections targeting small and mid-sized e-commerce businesses. Online store operators with annual revenue of $3.75M-37.5M who want to assess their privacy protection status face consulting fees of $3,750-15,000 from specialist firms, or 40+ hours just to understand the 100+ ISMS-P checklist items for self-assessment. Non-compliance penalties can reach up to 3% of annual revenue.

Solution

(1) Select your shopping platform (Cafe24, Shopify, custom-built) to auto-generate a platform-specific privacy protection checklist, (2) Automated scanning of critical items like DB access controls, encryption, and log management via API integration, (3) Platform-specific configuration change guides with one-click application when vulnerabilities are found, (4) Auto-generated diagnostic report ready for submission during regulatory inspections.
