Naver has established response processes tailored to specific types of disasters, such as floods, typhoons, earthquakes, terrorist attacks, and fires. It is also focusing on ensuring service continuity by refining detailed recovery procedures in accordance with company-wide service recovery priorities.

Going forward, Naver plans to conduct regular disaster recovery drills based on its Business Continuity Plan (BCP). It will also continue improvement initiatives to ensure service stability.

Internal training and campaigns will also be conducted to enhance employees’ understanding of the Business Continuity Plan. Through these efforts, the company aims to strengthen its disaster response system and infrastructure stability.

Naver also operates a company-wide crisis response governance system. Through the BCP Committee, it regularly reviews its disaster response system and refines measures to ensure service stability.

Yoo Bong-seok, Naver’s Chief Risk Officer, stated, “In a situation where various types of disasters occur—including natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and heavy snowfall, as well as terrorism and fires—Naver has fulfilled its responsibility as a platform company and enhanced its response systems to ensure service continuity.” He added, “Through the BCP Committee, we will regularly review our company-wide crisis response governance to further enhance service stability.”
