Information security management
Our company is built on a relationship of trust with our customers, business partners, and other stakeholders.
In order to maintain and improve this trust and provide good quality services, all employees, including management, must be aware of the value and importance of information assets, sufficient safety measures must be enacted, and information’s completeness, confidentiality, and availability must be preserved.
Information security basic policy
For this reason, we have established an “Information Security Fundamental Policy” for the improvement of information security to provide appropriate protection for various threats to our information assets.
- We establish internal standards and implement risk evaluation, maintain awareness of threats and vulnerabilities related to important information assets, enact appropriate risk countermeasures for risks, and make efforts to prevent information security incidents such as fraudulent access, losses, damage, modification, or leakage of information assets.
- We have decided benchmarks for information security, and while working toward their achievement, we are also spreading awareness of the importance of information assets and information security to all employees, ensuring that proper usage of information assets, devices, and equipment becomes common knowledge.
- If information security problems do occur, we promptly carry out investigations to determine the cause, making efforts to minimize damages and stop them from spreading, implement the ideal countermeasures, prevent recurrences, and improve maintenance.
- We implement continuous activities related to the aforementioned Information Security Fundamental Policy and have also established a management system to ensure new threats can be handled.
- If any employees are found to have violated legal requirements or internal company regulations, applicable penalties specified in internal rules such as the Employment Regulations are applied.
- This fundamental policy is reviewed regularly, and we make efforts to continually improve it.

Prevention of Illegal Copying
As such, before the user can install (copy) software, they must first obtain the necessary permission/authorization from the software manufacturer (who is also the copyright holder). This permission/authorization is called a "license" and can generally be obtained by agreeing to the license agreement at the time of installation.
For this reason, installations exceeding the permitted number of devices the program can be installed in, which is defined in the license, are illegal copies, in other words, copyright infringement.
This means that even if the user purchases genuine software, if the number of software installations exceeds the number of licenses held by the user's organization, the said user will have violated the license agreement, as well as the copyright law. If the user has been discovered to have done this, they may become liable for damages, or worse, be subject to criminal penalties, such as imprisonment or fines. Being found to have committed illegal copying will also damage one's reputation and credibility.
Copyright
Copyright is the right given to the creator (author) of works (copyrighted material), including music, paintings, novels, and movies.
Aside from audio and video, copyrighted works also include computer programs and digitized files of such.
The copyright is granted to the author at the time of creation, with no special registration required.
Copyright is defined by the Copyright Law.
The copyright given to the author is defined in detail in the stipulations of the Copyright Law, and as a general rule, third parties cannot use copyrighted work without permission. Because of this, in principle, it is necessary to obtain the permission of the author (or copyright holder) to use the copyrighted work.
Unauthorized use of copyrighted materials constitutes infringement and is subject to criminal penalties.
