Cyber Security Cloud, Inc. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, Japan; Representative Director, President and CEO: Toshihiro Koike; hereafter "the Company"), a global security company that provides anti-hacker services, announces that it made a comprehensive business alliance agreement (hereafter "the Alliance") with FUJISOFT INCORPORATED (Headquarters: Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture; President and CEO: Tomoyasu Sakashita, hereinafter referred to as "FUJISOFT") .

As cloud computing advances rapidly, the number of companies introducing cloud services such as AWS is increasing year by year. Recently, the number of cyber attacks has increased dramatically and the threat has grown, making security measures in cloud environments important. However, many companies in Japan have issues with security measures due to a shortage of information security personnel. In response to this situation, we have developed and are providing a fully managed AWS environment security service called "CloudFastener" so that companies that have issues with securing information security personnel and operating systems can focus on development work with peace of mind in the AWS cloud environment.

Fujisoft uses the high "technical capabilities" of the Fujisoft Group's engineers (9,507 people, 17,686 people (as of the end of September 2023)) and the "proposal capabilities" backed by that technology as the source of valuable services, and as a software manufacturer, it utilizes its top-level development capabilities to thoroughly pursue "what is best for the customer," providing total solutions with a comprehensive system that covers everything from consulting, development, and system construction to support. In addition, it has positioned AIS-CRM* as a key technology field and is focusing on cloud and security.

*AIS-CRM Fujisoft's key technology field. An acronym for AI, IoT, Security, Cloud, Robot, Mobile/Automotive.

In collaboration with Fujisoft, which has a wealth of cloud-related technology and track record, we were able to develop "CloudFastener" as well as system development capabilities, enabling high-quality and rapid development that would not be possible with our own engineering resources. We aim to quickly support multi-cloud in addition to AWS environments and provide it to a wide range of customers. By quickly creating products that meet the needs of the market and our customers, we will continue to develop and expand services that are easy for everyone to use, based on our corporate philosophy of "creating a cyberspace that people all over the world can use safely and securely," and will continue to work hard to reduce the security risks facing companies.
