  2. Digitalization of society

    ・Spread of telework and web conferencing
    ・Progress of IoT/cashless

  3. The existence of risks that companies bear due to information leaks and cyberattacks

    ・Liability risk: Risk of being claimed for damages due to leakage of customer information or system outage due to cyber attack
    ・Cost risk: Risk of investigating the cause and scope of information leaks and cyberattacks, costs for setting up call centers, etc.
    ・Profit risk: Risk of suspension of the company's business due to information leakage or cyber attack, resulting in lost profits.

Risk Management for Cyber Attacks

In today's situation where cyberattacks are becoming more sophisticated and information leakage incidents are occurring, there is a possibility that you may have risks that you cannot hold on your own. In case of emergency, please consider using a "cyber protector" that compensates for damages caused by cyber attacks and information leaks as one option for passing on risk.
