AI-based cyber threat intelligence (CTI) specialist SANDS Lab (KOSDAQ 411080, CEO Kim Ki-hong) announced that its MNX NDR solution has been officially registered on the Public Procurement Service’s Digital Service Mall.
Public-sector organizations can now purchase and use MNX through third-party unit-price contracts. Two versions, 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps, are registered, allowing selection according to internal network traffic volume.

MNX is an NDR solution that provides visibility into protocols and applications through an AI-based deep packet inspection (DPI) engine.
It captures network packets at high speed in real time, identifies more than 480 IT Layer 7 protocols, performs in-depth file maliciousness analysis and detects anomalies and behavior, giving administrators an at-a-glance view of detailed information on otherwise unseen network traffic.

Advanced search, scenario-based identification and AI-driven automated playbook responses further improve administrator efficiency, enabling more systematic threat management and tracking.
Insight generation and network forensics detect unusual activity or behavior, immediately alert administrators and present relevant information as insights. This automated internal assistant reduces workload and supports faster decisions and threat response.
Another advantage is the enhanced performance achieved by integrating MNX with CTX, SANDS Lab’s flagship cyber threat intelligence service. This reveals related attack groups and detailed campaign information, helping security staff build defenses aligned with threat objectives and intent. Integration between the solution and service enables effective responses to increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.
MNX has earned the highest rating, Grade 1, under Good Software (GS) certification, and organizations using the Public Procurement Service can purchase it through third-party unit-price contracts. Digital Service Mall registration expands SANDS Lab’s reach in the public sector. A representative said, “Registration took longer because we devoted considerable time and effort to validating technology and stability through multiple projects and ongoing R&D to strengthen public-sector competitiveness. Customers can expect excellent performance.”
CEO Kim Ki-hong said, “We hope MNX will reach public institutions that have yet to adopt NDR or are considering it through the Digital Service Mall, further strengthening public-sector security. We will continue to provide optimal security solutions tailored to diverse institutional needs and working environments.”
To mark the procurement registration, SANDS Lab is specially extending its MNX adoption support promotion through the end of this year. Details are available on its website and official online channels.
