Fujitsu's Know-how and Latest Technology for Measures against Information Leakage by Cyber Attacks

While the scope of application of information and communications technology (ICT) is expanding, finding a way to take measures against cyber attacks, which are becoming increasingly advanced and sophisticated, is posing a significant challenge for enterprises. These cyber attacks call for measures premised on intrusion, not to mention measures to prevent intrusion. In the event that a company's defenses are breached, the speed and reliability with which it can respond has a great impact on the risk of information leakage and spread of infection. Fujitsu has developed and offered FUJITSU Software Systemwalker Security Control, which navigates and automates the response according to the specified operation process as a means to deal with this problem. This middleware reduces the cost of the procedure from formulating an operation process to actual security management and allows reliable operation with the elimination of human error by automating response. This paper uses an information leakage accident caused by a cyber attack that occurred in Japan in 2015 as a case example to describe measures that utilize Fujitsu's know-how in internal operation. It also describes the latest technology for measures against cyber attacks, and presents middleware that integrates such operational know-how and the latest technology of Fujitsu.
