- FY2026MitigatedAnnual report
「As technical measures, in addition to introducing tools to prevent, detect and eliminate cyberattacks and unauthorized access and implementing multilayered backups, we have established a continuous monitoring framework through a SOC (Security Operations Center) operated in cooperation with an external specialist organization, working to detect anomalies at an early stage and accelerate initial response. As physical measures, with the systems department located in a separate building, we strictly manage entry to the building and individual rooms through dual authentication card-key controls. As personnel-based measures, we provide regular employee education and conduct simulated targeted-email exercises to improve information security literacy.」
