The Economic Security Promotion Bill aims to promote economic security by ensuring a stable supply of essential goods, protecting critical infrastructure, and promoting research and development of cutting-edge technologies. The bill consists of five chapters:

1. Basic Policy: Establishes the basic policy for promoting economic security, including the importance of ensuring a stable supply of essential goods and protecting critical infrastructure.
2. Stable Supply of Essential Goods: Ensures a stable supply of essential goods by designating specific important materials, certifying business operators' plans, and providing support measures.
3. Protection of Critical Infrastructure: Protects critical infrastructure by conducting prior audits of equipment introduction and maintenance, and providing guidance and orders to prevent hindrance.
4. Promotion of Research and Development of Cutting-Edge Technologies: Promotes research and development of cutting-edge technologies by establishing a basic policy, providing financial support, and setting up a council for public-private partnership.
5. Non-Publication of Patent Applications: Introduces a system for non-publication of patent applications to prevent the disclosure of sensitive information and protect national security.

The bill also includes provisions for compensation, foreign application restrictions, and other measures to ensure economic security. The implementation period for the bill is within 6 months to 2 years after promulgation, with some provisions taking effect earlier.
