The Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) said Monday it is upgrading VISTA, an AI-powered virtual asset surveillance platform, after installing two high-performance servers in December and developing automated detection models that scan intervals from seconds to months. The agency secured a 170 million won budget for 2026 to upgrade servers and add network-detection and text analytics across thousands of crypto assets. Separately, the Financial Services Commission and Korea Exchange will launch an AI-driven cyber surveillance system Tuesday to detect stock manipulation and analyze online posts, videos and price movements.

Key Points

  • 1Deploys upgraded VISTA platform with new servers and automated detection scanning seconds-to-month intervals
  • 2Addresses sophisticated market manipulation across crypto and stocks by flagging coordinated abnormal trades and content
  • 3Enables earlier detection and accelerates investigations, prompting stronger compliance and monitoring for exchanges and firms

Scoring Rationale

Official regulator deployments increase industry relevance, but limited technical specifics and regional scope constrain broader applicability.
