Cyber Security Cloud, Inc. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director, President and CEO: Toshihiro Koike; hereinafter, "the Company"), a global security manufacturer, has entered into a strategic partnership in the field of cloud security with Fastly, Inc. (Country Manager: Yoshihiro Konno; hereinafter, "Fastly"), the Japanese subsidiary of Fastly, Inc. (NYSE: FSLY), a provider of a high-performance CDN (content delivery network).

Through this collaboration, we will begin offering a solution that combines Fastly's high-performance CDN with our Cloud-based WAF, "Shadankun." By combining the strengths of both companies' services, we aim to achieve a high level of both "speed" and "security" in web services, further enhancing the reliability and convenience of businesses.

■ Background and purpose
In recent years, corporate digital services have become increasingly diverse and large-scale, requiring them to meet more advanced performance requirements, such as delivery optimization using CDNs, bot countermeasures, and L7-DDoS countermeasures.

Our Cloud-based WAF "Shadankun" boasts the top market share in Japan and has protected web services in all industries from cyberattacks. Meanwhile, Fastly operates an ultra-fast and highly flexible CDN on a global scale, and has a proven track record in high-traffic environments such as large-scale e-commerce sites, video streaming, and API platforms.

"Through this collaboration, we will combine the robust security of "Shadankun" with Fastly's overwhelming delivery performance to provide an optimal solution that maintains a high level of security while achieving the speed and availability required on an enterprise scale at a more reasonable cost. Through this partnership, we will maximize the strengths of both companies and contribute to creating an environment in which companies both in Japan and overseas can conduct business more safely and quickly."
