(hereinafter referred to as "AWS").

This award recognizes AWS partners who have created customer value through their expertise, innovation, and collaboration over the past year. Partner companies are selected for their outstanding contributions to building solutions using AWS and promoting customer innovation.

We were selected as a finalist forthe "Marketplace Partner of the Year - APJ" award, which is a category given to companies that have achieved particularly outstanding results in the Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ) region, based on a comprehensive evaluation of their transaction performance, customer value, and continued contributions to the AWS Marketplace.

■Our efforts in AWS Marketplace

Since launching its services on AWS Marketplace in 2019, the company has steadily expanded its presence in the global market. Starting with the launch of "Cyber Security Cloud Managed Rules for AWS WAF," the company continued to expand its lineup on AWS Marketplace, providing customers around the world with the launch of "WafCharm for AWS Marketplace," an AWS WAF automation service, in November 2022, and "CloudFastener," a fully managed security service for AWS environments, in May 2024.

As of the end of September 2025, our services have been rolled out to over 100 countries and regions, and are used by over 4,000 customers. In recognition of these ongoing efforts and achievements, we were awarded the "Marketplace Partner of the Year - APJ" at the 2022 Regional and Global AWS Partner Awards. In addition, our past achievements and ongoing contributions to the AWS Marketplace have been highly praised, and we have been selected as a finalist for the "Marketplace Partner of the Year - APJ" award in 2025.

■About "WafCharm"

"WafCharm" is a service that allows you to automatically operate AWS WAF. The greatest benefit of "WafCharm" is that it automates the complicated and important WAF operation tasks. With a wide range of functions, such as 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; you can leave it to "WafCharm." 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.
