Expansion of Cyber Threat Intelligence, Supply Chain Risk and Social Media Analysis Services

「コンステラセキュリティジャパン社, a Group company, advanced numerous projects for government agencies, including the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' technology development and demonstration project for combating false and misleading information on the internet, projects related to the Ministry of Defense and projects for the National Police Agency. Adoption of proprietary technologies developed based on expertise accumulated within the Group also progressed steadily, further expanding the business and building its track record, particularly in the government agency sector.」

「The Group's proprietary cyber threat intelligence analysis services continued to win government agency projects steadily and maintained a firm order environment. In addition, activities by the Group company コンステラセキュリティジャパン社 in the cognitive warfare and information warfare fields were featured in multiple news media outlets, further increasing market and public attention to these areas.」

「In addition, as major elections are being held around the world this year, information warfare using disinformation to interfere with those elections has become a major challenge for the Group's proprietary security services. Demand for the Group's cognitive warfare analysis services has consequently increased substantially. Orders from government agencies have been particularly strong, accelerating growth together with the existing cybercrime countermeasure services.」

「The Group's proprietary security services operate mainly in 3 areas: responding to cybercrime, including ransomware; defending against attacks on social infrastructure by APT groups and the theft of sensitive information such as intellectual property; and analyzing disinformation and information operations conducted by state-backed groups.」

「Ransomware-related services are provided mainly to major domestic companies, while threat intelligence on APT groups and information operations are provided mainly to government agencies, and both activities are growing steadily.」

「In addition to the adoption of Cyber Threat Intelligence Services by government agencies and other organizations, orders for automated cyber risk assessment services that visualize supply-chain risks remained firm.」

「Orders for Cyber Threat Intelligence Services, which collect and analyze malicious information exchanged by highly sophisticated attack groups such as APT groups and cybercrime groups on highly anonymous networks known as the dark net and provide it to subscribing companies, and for automated cyber risk assessment services that visualize supply-chain risks remained firm. In addition, the company fully launched a service that uses AI to analyze SNS platforms, which are frequently used in various crimes, to identify hidden relationships between criminal groups and undisclosed accounts, while its software supply-chain risk services, pursued as the next major theme, also got off to a smooth start.」
