Professor Yoo Il Sun (Department of Information Security, Cryptography and Mathematics) achieves consecutive milestones: elected chair of IEEE P3751 “6G-IoT Quantum Security Standardisation Subcommittee” and selected among the world's top 2% researchers
- 25.11.21 / 전윤실
Professor Yoo Il Sun of the Department of Information Security, Cryptography and Mathematics at Kookmin University (President Jeong Seung Ryul) has been elected chair of the “6G-IoT Quantum Security Standardisation Working Group” (WG 8.4) under the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP). This follows his selection among the world's top 2% researchers for five consecutive years. (International Federation for Information Processing, hereafter IFIP) and the 6G-IoT Quantum Security Standardisation Subcommittee (P3751) under the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
IFIP, which involves over 100 countries worldwide, is often referred to as the “United Nations of ICT” and exerts significant influence on global technological trends and policy directions within the ICT sector. IFIP WG 8.4 is an authoritative organisation that conducts multifaceted research into the development of information systems within advanced ICT environments – such as e-commerce, digital platforms, and online services – from technical, managerial, and sociological perspectives. Professor Yoo Il Sun plans to present a vision for next-generation e-business information systems integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum security (Q-Security), building upon his established international research capabilities in cybersecurity, data protection, and trust-based service design.
The IEEE P3751 Standards Subcommittee will propose a quantum security-embedded 6G framework combining cutting-edge technologies such as post-quantum cryptography (PQC), quantum key distribution (QKD), and quantum artificial intelligence (Q-AI), positioning itself at the forefront of global standardisation competition. Professor Yoo's leadership is expected to play a decisive role in establishing a turning point for the Republic of Korea to secure technological sovereignty in the international standard competition for 6G and quantum security.
Kookmin University plans to strengthen cooperation with leading domestic and international research institutions and industry alongside Professor Yoo. This will drive the international standardisation of 6G-based quantum security architecture, research into AI and blockchain-converged e-business platforms, and enhanced global joint symposiums and technology policy collaboration. This achievement is regarded as a symbolic milestone demonstrating Kookmin University's position as a global technology leader spearheading the “era of securing quantum and 6G security sovereignty”
.
Meanwhile, Professor Yoo has also been named on the “Top 2% Scientists 2025” list, jointly published by Stanford University and Elsevier, for five consecutive years. This list, based on Elsevier's Scopus database, comprehensively evaluates citation metrics and academic influence of researchers worldwide to select the top 2% scientists in each field, representing a globally authoritative ranking.
