The invisible threat of “technology leakage”: Data security, a time to protect with GLUCK.

 

In my previous article, “Survival Strategies for Korean Manufacturing,” I emphasized the importance of “technology internalization” and “securing technological sovereignty” as the direction our manufacturing industry should take in response to China's “Made in China 2025” strategy. Recently, a very concrete and realistic threat has emerged to support this argument. Specifically, by outsourcing 3D printing to Chinese companies, our core data and design data are being leaked without any safeguards.

Industry > SME & Venture News: While the use of Chinese industrial 3D printing equipment is increasing in domestic manufacturing sites, there are concerns about technology leakage to China...)

 

 

Did you know that outsourcing 3D printing services based solely on price competitiveness could become a “Trojan horse” threatening the future of our companies?

The trap of “data leakage” hidden behind “price”

Most companies conduct 3D printing outsourcing through price comparisons. The problem arises precisely at this point. When outsourcing to Chinese local 3D printing companies under the guise of low costs, or even disguising it as domestic production while actually conducting the work through Chinese companies, the company's most important assets—design data and all technical capabilities—are leaked to China without the customers' knowledge.

This goes beyond simple hacking. The design data we entrust could lead to competing companies launching similar products, unauthorized replication in China, and long-term technological dependence, ultimately having a devastating impact on the technological competitiveness of the industry and the nation. This is a clear threat that accelerates the “decline into a technology-exporting nation” warned about in the previous article.

 

• Security complacency: The complacent mindset of “There's no way our company's design drawings would be leaked” leads to technology leakage that cannot be quantified in monetary terms.
• The vicious cycle of low-cost outsourcing: Relying on low-cost Chinese outsourcing ultimately leads to a vicious cycle where all technology is leaked overseas.
• Collapse of the domestic manufacturing ecosystem: Unauthorized replication and the release of similar products due to technology leakage undermine the competitiveness of domestic companies and shake their foundations, inevitably weakening the roots of South Korea's manufacturing industry.

 

GLUCK's Proposal: The Most Reliable Way to Protect Data Security

In the face of these threats, GLUCK aims to be more than just a 3D printing service provider; we strive to be a “security partner” that protects our customers' data security.
