Cybersecurity Management Report
Cybersecurity Management Report 2025
As our world becomes increasingly interconnected and the use of AI continues to expand, both governments and businesses are facing new and complex cybersecurity challenges. These include the growing sophistication and commercial scale of cyberattacks, the increased risk of data breaches resulting from greater reliance on cloud services, and new issues in information management crucial for economic security.
Against this backdrop, NEC has adopted the slogan “MAKE JAPAN CYBER SECURE” and published the Cybersecurity Management Report 2025. The goal of this report is to help stakeholders understand the key cybersecurity initiatives that support the NEC Group’s business operations.
Reflecting changes in the business environment and recent trends, and to better demonstrate the management value of cybersecurity, we have renamed this publication from the Information Security Report to the Cybersecurity Management Report for 2025 onward.
Our cybersecurity initiatives are aligned with the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry’s Cybersecurity Management Guidelines Ver. 3.0 and The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 developed by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which was significantly revised in February 2024 for the first time in a decade. Guided by these standards, we are strengthening our intelligence (preemptive defense) and resilience (recovery from attacks) capabilities and building robust structures to counter increasingly serious cyber threats.
Our latest efforts focus on deploying a Zero Trust security platform and proprietary cyber threat intelligence to support the NEC Group’s cybersecurity and digital transformation, leveraging advanced AI technologies developed in Japan to balance safety and functionality, strengthening supply chain security, and developing the security talent driving our digital transformation forward.
Looking ahead, NEC remains committed to practicing effective cybersecurity management. Through our “Client Zero” approach—where we act as the very first user of our own advanced technologies and operational expertise, then share the resulting insights and value with customers and society—we aim to continually earn the trust of the communities we serve.
- Note:“Client Zero” is NEC’s initiative where the company first implements new technologies and operational know-how within its own organization, enabling us to deliver proven value and expertise to our customers and society.
