Introduction

The KS X ISO/IEC 9798-4-2018(2023) standard, published by the Korea Agency for Technology and Standards (KR-KATS) on December 28, 2018, is an integral part of a series of standards designed to ensure robust security in information technology systems. Specifically, this document addresses entity authentication mechanisms that incorporate password verification functions. As part of ISO/IEC 9798-4:2018 (E), it offers guidelines and technical specifications aimed at enhancing the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of data within IT environments.

The standard outlines methods for implementing secure entity authentication systems which utilize cryptographic techniques to verify user identities based on passwords. It provides recommendations for designing systems that are resistant to common security threats such as password guessing attacks, replay attacks, and other forms of unauthorized access attempts. By adhering to the guidelines set forth in KS X ISO/IEC 9798-4-2018(2023), developers can create more secure authentication mechanisms tailored for various IT environments including cloud computing platforms, enterprise networks, and mobile applications.

This standard is particularly relevant in today's digital landscape where the protection of sensitive information has become paramount. It supports organizations in developing compliant security practices that align with international standards while also addressing specific requirements of the Korean market.
