Lomin, a document AI company led by CEO Ji-Hong Kang, announced on the 21st that it would supply its AI-based personal information detection and de-identification solution, Textscope® Privacy Guard, to KB Kookmin Card.

This solution is part of KB Kookmin Card’s project to establish an "Automated Electronic Document Processing System," aimed at automatically detecting and de-identifying personal information during document processing. This enhances data privacy by reducing the risk of personal information exposure and improves document processing efficiency.

The supplied Textscope Privacy Guard leverages Document AI technology using Natural Language Processing (NLP) and a deep learning-based OCR engine to accurately detect and de-identify personal information in image documents. It can identify a wide range of personal data, including core items such as resident registration numbers, and can be customized to meet institutional and corporate requirements.

Notably, the solution accurately detects information even in graphic fonts, handwritten text, and low-quality images. With parallel processing on GPU servers, it supports large-scale documents and allows users to review de-identified information in a document viewer or manually add de-identification areas.

Previously, Lomin collaborated with KB Kookmin Card to advance its ID image system, providing models for the recognition of three types of foreign identification: alien registration cards, residence cards, and permanent residency cards.

CEO Ji-Hong Kang stated, “We are pleased that this project allows KB Kookmin Card to elevate its personal information protection level and significantly improve operational efficiency through document automation. Moving forward, we will continue to lead digital transformation in the financial sector and beyond with unparalleled Document AI technology, ensuring the safe protection of valuable personal data.”

In addition, Lomin recently deployed its AI-based personal information filtering and de-identification solution for the Korea Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation, contributing to the prevention of data breaches.
