Naver said on April 30 it held its first "Naver Security Seminar" at its Green Factory headquarters in Seongnam, introducing a range of security technologies designed to protect its services and users. The inaugural seminar was organized to discuss more advanced security strategies with industry experts as security issues become more complex alongside the development of artificial intelligence technologies. The event brought together not only Team Naver security personnel but also IT industry practitioners, developers interested in cybersecurity and students, who shared insights applicable to real-world operations. Team Naver presented its efforts to safeguard services and users, along with various security technologies, through six sessions. Topics included AI red-teaming strategies for building secure large language models, efforts to ensure safe offline payment environments and cloud infrastructure operations, and trends in phishing attacks. Naver also held its "Naver Bug Bounty Awards" offline for the first time, after previously conducting the event online. In 2025, a total of 126 domestic and international security researchers participated in the bug bounty program, submitting 255 reports. As the security quality of Naver's services improved, the number of reported bugs declined 13.8% year on year, while the average remediation period fell 28.5% to 25 days, the company said. Naver added that it paid participants rewards totaling about $33,900 annually, depending on the impact and difficulty of the reported bugs.
