This joint operation envisions a combination of Miracle Linux's "Functional Strengthening of a Linux Operating System for e-Japan" and SecuBrain and GeneVic's "Strengthing of System Security for the South Korean Government" programs. With progress advancing in recent years on commission of both the Japanese government-backed e-Japan project and the South Korean government's IT structuring, OS security has become preeminent. Since August 27th, Miracle Linux has begun a monitoring program for e-Japan and is also proceeding with product development on the "MIRACLE LINUX" server OS. This development is being carried out in accordance with the primary task of security aspects such as information protection, as well special requirements made by the Japanese government including Japanese language support. Secubrain, working for the rapidly growing South Korean security market, has gone beyond the limits of existing information security systems with its development of the OS-level anti-hacking and access control software "Hizard." Secubrain is currently working to strengthen security for industrial and government entities though improvements in anti-hacking research and product functionality, as well as installations for such bodies as the National Police Agency Anti-Cyber Terrorism Center. The companies' joint operation is based on a contract signed by Miracle Linux, SecuBrain, and GeneVic for the purpose of "Construction of a Strengthened Security OS Environment" that will act as a solution for the IT structuring of both governments. The major points of the contract are as follows:
