Korea's defense industry has grown rapidly since the establishment of Agency for Defense Development for self-defense in the 1970s, ranking ninth in defense science and technology in 2021, and accounting for 2.7 percent of global arms exports. In order to steal these technologies, information detection by domestic and foreign competitors as well as technology leakage by hacking are increasing. In the case of defense companies, the level of technology protection is high due to security support from government agencies as well as integrated survey under related laws, while in the case of defense-related companies, the level of technology protection is relatively low. In order to improve the security level of defense-related companies, some defense-related companies are surveyed by the Korea Industrial Technology Protection Association, but each company has different evaluation items and the Korea Industrial Technology Protection Association's evaluation items are difficult to improve the security level. Accordingly, it analyzed the evaluation items of the original company's survey and the evaluation items of the Korea Industrial Technology Protection Association, as well as the evaluation items of the defense-related company's security measurement and SME technology protection level, Based on the results of this study, it is expected to improve the security level of defense-related companies by analyzing the security measurement items of the original contractor, the Industrial Security Association, and the technical protection level diagnostic index of small and medium-sized companies.
