SEOUL, March 11, 2026 – SecurityScorecard, the global leader in threat-informed third-party risk management (TPRM), today announced it is expanding its operations into South Korea and outlined plans to expand its market strategy and customer support across the South Korean market.
The move reflects the increasing importance of supply chain cybersecurity as global enterprises, regulators, and investors demand the intelligence and automation to stay ahead of growing supply chain threats.
A New Security Paradigm for Supply Chain Resilience
Twelve years ago, SecurityScorecard pioneered cybersecurity ratings, giving organizations a measurable way to understand and improve their cyber hygiene. While many teams have the expertise to protect their organizations, legacy tools often reinforce a reactive, “check-the-box” approach where compliance is mistaken for true risk reduction. SecurityScorecard’s threat-informed third-party risk management helps organizations move beyond compliance, enabling them to identify and reduce real supply chain cyber risk.
Threat-informed TPRM extends beyond traditional TPRM by:
- Giving foundational visibility to actually understand your risk
- Automating the manual grind with AI
- Operationalizing threat-informed prioritization across your entire supply chain
This framework combines automated assessments with proprietary threat intelligence to continuously monitor vendor and third-party risk, enabling organizations to anticipate and address risks before threats materialize.
“Supply chain security is no longer simply an IT issue. It has become a core business factor that determines revenue, contracts, and even corporate survival in the global market. Customers and investors around the globe increasingly choose to work only with companies whose cybersecurity posture has been independently verified. Supply chain security is emerging as a measurable indicator of corporate trust,” Arthur Woo, Country Manager of SecurityScorecard, South Korea, said. “Korean companies have world-class technological competitiveness, but improving transparency and visibility across their supply chains remains an important challenge. SecurityScorecard will help Korean organizations identify supply chain risks early and build cybersecurity capabilities that meet global standards.”

MAX: Managed Services for TPRM Outcomes
SecurityScorecard also provides MAX, a managed service that identifies high-risk vendors, continuously monitors active threats, and drives vendor remediation to strengthen organizations’ third-party cyber resilience.
MAX supports organizations by:
- Streamlining TPRM processes
- Meeting compliance requirements
- Mitigating supply chain cyber risks
This service ensures that risk management teams can efficiently assess, monitor, and respond to risks across the entire vendor ecosystem.
Expanding Operations in South Korea to Address Global Supply Chain Security Regulations
Global regulations such as the SEC’s (Securities and Exchange Commission) cybersecurity disclosure rules, the European Union’s Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), the NIS2 Directive, PIPA (Personal Information Protection Act), and FedRAMP have significantly increased expectations around cybersecurity transparency and accountability. As a result, supply chain security has become a requirement for doing business globally, not simply a best practice.
Many multinational companies now restrict partnerships with vendors whose cybersecurity posture does not meet required standards. Supply chain security now directly impacts revenue, investment decisions, and global market expansion.
SecurityScorecard’s expansion into South Korea represents a strategic investment to help Korean companies meet these evolving global requirements.
Growing Presence in South Korea
SecurityScorecard has already secured several major Korean conglomerates as customers across industries, including:
- Semiconductor
- Automotive
- Energy
- Manufacturing
- Information Technology
These companies use SecurityScorecard’s Ratings and supply chain risk management platform to strengthen cybersecurity credibility in global business relationships and systematically manage supply chain risks.
To help Korean enterprises operate leading supply chain security programs, SecurityScorecard plans to significantly expand:
- Technical support
- On-site response capabilities
- Professional consulting services
- Customer success programs
“South Korea plays a critical role in the global supply chain ecosystem, with globally influential industries including semiconductors, automotive, shipbuilding, defense, and IT,” Matthew McKenna, President of International Sales at SecurityScorecard, said. “With our expansion into South Korea, we plan to position South Korea as a central hub for supply chain cybersecurity strategy in Asia while continuing to expand long-term investments and technical support across the region.”
Arthur Woo Appointed Country Manager
SecurityScorecard has appointed Arthur Woo as Country Manager to lead its South Korea operations.
Woo brings more than 25 years of experience in the global cybersecurity industry and previously helped establish and grow the Korean businesses of companies including SentinelOne, Verkada, and FireMon.
He is widely recognized for leading organizational development, go-to-market strategy, partner ecosystem expansion, and enterprise customer acquisition.
To strengthen supply chain cybersecurity capabilities for Korean enterprises, SecurityScorecard is partnering with the following companies:
- Goodmorning ITEC
- Pinolike
- Donghoon ITEC
