## Yaokin Co., Ltd. Adopts Ransomware Prevention Platform "Halcyon"
Takachiho Koeki Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Takanobu Ide; Stock Code: 2676; hereinafter "Takachiho Koeki") announces that Yaokin Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Sumida-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Masahiko Kadoya; hereinafter "Yaokin") has adopted and completed the implementation of the ransomware prevention platform "Halcyon".
* An original "Umaibo" (popular Japanese snack) has been created based on the Halcyon adoption case. It will be utilized as a novelty item to help people feel more familiar with security measures. This novelty is scheduled to be distributed at the Information Security EXPO (Takachiho Koeki booth) held from Tuesday, April 8, 2026, to Friday, April 10, 2026.
Yaokin Co., Ltd., which plans and sells a wide variety of playful products, from easy snacks like "Umaibo" to innovative confectionery ideas and nostalgic sweets that have been loved across generations, delivers products that foster children's dreams both throughout Japan and worldwide through "deliciousness" and "fun". As a company handling food, Yaokin emphasizes safe food production and stable business operations. On the other hand, the ransomware damage that has become increasingly serious in recent years is expanding regardless of industry or company size, posing a significant management challenge that affects business continuity.
## [Background and Overview of Yaokin's System Adoption]
Yaokin faced challenges concerning the impact of business system downtime (excluding manufacturing sites) and insufficient clarity on recovery timelines. Particularly in system operations managed by a small team, the lack of clear roles and responsibilities during incidents was a source of anxiety. The adoption of Halcyon was evaluated positively because its concept of not only "preventing intrusion" but also enabling "rapid recovery even if encryption occurs" aligned with Yaokin's business continuity policy.
Furthermore, the fact that Halcyon could be introduced as an add-on without conflicting with existing EDR, and its subscription model which allows for reduced initial investment, were also factors that supported its adoption.
## [Effects After Adoption and Operational Aspects]
The process from the start of consideration to implementation was completed in a short period of approximately two months, with the implementation work and agent deployment to each terminal also being completed without significant burden.
Easy-to-understand management screen and alerts for abnormalities.
