Information Security

Policy

NEC recognizes that it must protect the information assets it keeps for its customers and business partners as well as its own information assets, in order to contribute to society through the provision of better products and services. NEC has codified this duty in the NEC Information Security Statement. Moreover, we will establish an information security promotion framework and information security management systems (the formulation, operation, review, and improvement of policies and measures to maintain and improve information security) and put in place information security infrastructure. Through these measures, NEC will strive to fulfill the duty set forth in the NEC Information Security Statement.


Framework

NEC’s information security implementation framework consists of the Information Security Strategy Committee and its subcommittees, as well as the promotion systems of each organization. The Information Security Strategy Committee and its subcommittees determine the direction of the NEC Group’s information security policies encompassing Japan and overseas, along with business partners.  In addition, the efforts of the overall NEC Group are directed and managed by the Security Technical Center (STC) of the Management Information Systems Division and the Customer Information Security Office of the Internal Control Division. The STC and the Customer Information Security Office implement and manage activities at each organization through the Information Security Strategy Committee and its subcommittees, while working closely with Information Security Management Supervisors and Promotion Managers appointed to each business division, corporate staff division and Group company.

Information Security Strategy Committee

Aiming to decrease the number of information security incidents throughout the NEC Group, this committee deliberates important issues such as the decision, assessment, and improvement of information security reinforcement measures, the clarification of the causes of major incidents and decision on measures to prevent reoccurrence, and the formulation of strategies for transferring achieved results into NEC's own information security business.

Promotion Committees and Working Groups

There are four sub-committees of the Information Security Strategy Committee, namely two promotion committees and two working groups. These sub-committees perform various tasks in order to maintain and improve the information security of the NEC Group as a whole. Tasks include discussion and coordination of implementation plans and measures to be executed, as well as enforcing directives and monitoring progress on various measures. By sharing information about incidents and monitoring the situation and issues faced by each organization, the sub-committees strive to enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, and feasibility of various security measures.
