The Bank of Nagoya, Ltd. was reported to be conducting a 1-year pilot project from October to strengthen cybersecurity measures for small and medium-sized enterprises using an NTT DATA platform, with the aim of beginning full-scale operations by the end of fiscal 2027.
Nikkei reported that The Bank of Nagoya, Ltd. plans to strengthen cybersecurity for small and medium-sized enterprises using a development platform operated by NTT DATA.

The 1-year pilot project will be conducted from October for business partner companies, with efforts made to share operational issues.
Based on the knowledge gained through the pilot project, The Bank of Nagoya, Ltd. plans to begin full-scale operations by the end of fiscal 2027. During the verification period before live operations begin, the bank is expected to share improvements based on the results of the pilot project with its business partner companies.
