Updata Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Atsushi Ogawa; hereinafter 'Updata') will co-host an online webinar with Passlogy Inc. on Thursday, May 28, 2026, from 13:00 to 14:00, titled '[For School ICT Proposals] How to Prevent Information Leaks When Staff Security Awareness Lags: Achieving Secure Cloud Utilization in Compliance with Guidelines.' Participation is free of charge.
The Changing Educational Landscape under the GIGA School Concept and New Security Challenges
Driven by the GIGA School Concept, the utilization of the cloud for efficient school administration and the creation of flexible learning environments are steadily expanding. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) explicitly promoted a 'Cloud-by-Default' principle in its revised guidelines in March 2025, pushing educational digital integration into a new stage.
However, incidents related to lost or stolen devices and access management continue to be reported. While trying to comply with these guidelines, many administrators are actively searching for practical next steps, struggling with 'specific implementation methods for strong authentication,' 'operational structures with limited personnel,' and 'on-site adoption.'
This webinar provides a forum for those already implementing measures, as well as those planning to, to explore ideas and practical implementation examples based on real operational contexts. It focuses on a two-tier approach: 'Data-less' PCs multiplied by 'Strong Authentication.' Attendees can utilize this session to confirm their compliance with guidelines and refine their current strategies.
Webinar Overview
Centered around the two-tier approach of 'leaving no data on PC terminals (Data-less)' and 'preventing unauthorized logins (Strong Authentication),' this webinar aims to provide frontline administrators and ICT solution providers with actionable insights for their next strategic steps.

About Shadow Desktop
Shadow Desktop is domestic software that makes PCs 'data-less' simply by installing it. It links with cloud storage and internal servers without compromising the operational feel of standard PCs (FAT-PCs), leaving zero data on the device itself. In the event of loss or theft, remote access blocks can be activated, simultaneously achieving information leak prevention and improved operational productivity.

About PassLogic
PassLogic is a multi-factor authentication (MFA) solution supporting all three authentication factors: knowledge, possession, and biometric. It offers versatile MFA by freely combining 9 types of authentication methods, starting with its matrix-based 'PassLogic Authentication.' It allows long-term usage by adapting authentication methods according to changing environments. It can enforce deviceless authentication for Microsoft 365 and supports SSO integration, SASE/SSE/VPN, and enhanced authentication for Windows OS terminals.
