Cyber Security Cloud, Inc. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director, President and CEO: Toshihiro Koike; hereinafter referred to as "the Company"), a global security manufacturer, is pleased to announce that it has achieved the No. 1 position (*1) for the first time in terms of revenue share in the domestic WAF operation monitoring service market in fiscal year 2024 in the market research report "ITR Market View: Gateway Security SOC Service Market 2025" published by ITR Corporation.

■ The market is expanding due to increased demand for strengthened WAF operations
In recent years, cloud usage has accelerated, with an increasing number of companies using public clouds such as AWS. However, to prevent incidents caused by increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks, many companies are introducing WAFs (Web Application Firewalls) provided by public cloud vendors, such as AWS WAF.
However, public cloud WAFs require continuous operation, including rule updates and customization, and many companies are faced with the challenge of operating their WAFs in a trial-and-error state due to a shortage of security specialists, or of putting off burdensome operational tasks such as manually managing IP block lists.Many companies also do not fully understand the effectiveness or detection status of their WAFs.

■ Our problem-solving solution has achieved the No. 1 market share in the domestic WAF operation monitoring service market
To solve these issues, we have developed and are providing "WafCharm," a WAF automation service that automates the complex and important operational tasks of public cloud WAFs, and "Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules for AWS WAF," a rule set specifically for AWS WAF that is available on the AWS Marketplace, where users have been using the service in over 100 countries and regions.
Our technical capabilities, which we have cultivated over many years, and our feature updates that capture market needs have earned us the trust of many customers, and as a result of these efforts, we have achieved the No. 1 sales revenue share in the domestic WAF operation monitoring service market for the first time in fiscal 2024.
Going forward, we will continue to leverage our cutting-edge technology and extensive know-how to provide security solutions that address ever-evolving cyber threats, thereby strongly supporting the safety and growth of our customers' businesses.

■About the WAF automated operation service "WafCharm "
The WAF automation service "WafCharm" is a service that can automatically operate WAFs provided on public clouds. It is compatible with AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.
The greatest benefit of WafCharm is that it automates the complicated yet important work of WAF operation. With a wide range of functions, including automatic rule application and automatic IP block list addition, there is no need to manually create and update WAF rules or add IP block lists; WafCharm can handle the work for you. This significantly reduces the time and cost required for WAF operation.
In addition, the dashboard analysis function allows anyone to intuitively understand the threat situation and the defensive effectiveness of the WAF, making it possible to visualize and improve the security level of the entire organization, even without security expertise or advanced log analysis skills.
Furthermore, Japanese technical support is included, so you can use it with confidence even in the event of false positives or any other problems that may occur.
By utilizing WafCharm, you can strengthen the security of your cloud environment while minimizing the workload involved in operating a public cloud WAF with limited resources, without the need for a dedicated security engineer.
