On July 3, Lockin Company (CEO Myung-kyu Choi, Lockin Company), a mobile app security specialist, announced that it has signed a strategic business agreement (MOU) with Fortis Distribution, a mobile software distribution and IT solution specialist in Europe, for entering the global market.

Lockin Company plans to provide its flagship security service, LIAPP, to industries with high security demand such as finance, games, and healthcare through Fortis Distribution’s distribution network.
Since its establishment in 2014, Lockin Company has been providing a wide range of security services in domestic and international financial/fintech, games, education, O2O, e-commerce, mobility, healthcare public apps, etc., centered around LIAPP, which can prevent forgery and tampering of mobile apps, detect hacking, and apply real-time security policies. LIAPP, which has secured high market satisfaction with its user-friendly structure that allows security to be applied with just one build, is contributing greatly to the operational efficiency of customers, especially with its ability to adjust security policies without redistributing apps, and is recognized for its technology and reliability in the global security market.
Fortis Distribution will be responsible for localizing, distributing, and responding to customers of LIAPP based on its distribution and customer support infrastructure across Europe, and Lockin Company will actively expand its global app security business based on its accumulated technology and security service operation experience. Fortis Distribution is a leading European IT distribution company that has continued partnerships with global security and development technology companies based on its strong competitiveness in the mobile and SaaS security sectors. Through this collaboration, it is expected to further strengthen its position in the mobile software security market.
Lockin Company said, “The partnership with Fortis Distribution is an important turning point that accelerates LIAPP’s global expansion,” and added, “We will present a new standard for global mobile app security through the synergy of our technological prowess and distribution capabilities.” Fortis Distribution also said, “LIAPP is a global security solution with proven technological prowess and stability, and is sufficiently competitive in the European market,” and added, “Through this collaboration, more companies will be able to build a mobile environment that is safe from security threats.”
Starting with this MOU, the two companies plan to continuously expand the scope of their cooperation, including technological exchanges, joint marketing, and provision of localized security packages, and develop it into a long-term strategic partnership.
That’s it. The end.
