OREANDA-NEWS. Fujitsu announced that it has organized its security-related products and services to bolster ICT safety and security for its customers and society into its new FUJITSU Security Initiative. This newly organized collection of products and services will initially only be available in Japan but will roll out globally in stages.

With the FUJITSU Security Initiative, Fujitsu will provide integrated security support to customers by combining the advanced products and services it has been offering with its expertise in building and executing security measures as well as education and training for staff that was developed for its own operations. Fujitsu will also establish the new Security Initiative Center staffed with security experts. Through a lifecycle consisting of services for customers' security environments, from threat identification and consideration of appropriate countermeasures, to building and operating solutions, Fujitsu will provide support to maintain constant security against increasingly sophisticated cyber-attacks.

Through its FUJITSU Security Initiative, in cooperation with security vendors and other external organizations around the world, Fujitsu will deliver a comprehensive package of security products and services for the safety and security of its customers and society as a whole.

With the spread of cloud computing and smart devices, ICT is used in an increasingly wide range of environments. At the same time, however, cyber-attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated. In creating countermeasures against such attacks, making ICT both easy to use and secure is a significant challenge.

Fujitsu has continuously been developing and providing security-related products and services. Through appropriate countermeasures and operations, Fujitsu, which is comprised of approximately 300 companies worldwide, currently deals with several hundred million individual cyber-attacks each day on its own Intranet. In order to apply this expertise to the security measures of its customers and deliver integrated support, including enhanced systems and operations as well as education and training of a company's personnel, Fujitsu has organized its line of products and services into the new FUJITSU Security Initiative. It is also establishing the Security Initiative Center to provide a one-stop shop of support functions for constantly maintaining the optimal level of customer security environments.
