IT for WorkStyle (Location: Chofu City, Tokyo; Representative: Seiji Kimura) has begun offering "Hariti," an IT security package that complies with the "information management measures" stipulated by the Children's Sexual Violence Prevention Act (Japan DBS). This is Japan's first initiative to provide an IT security package specifically designed for information management measures under the Children's Sexual Violence Prevention Act.

This package is designed not only to comply with the requirements of the guidelines but also to satisfy the duty of care, enabling businesses to prove that they were "properly managed" in the event of an unforeseen circumstance. It is intended for a wide range of businesses involved with children, including "school operators (school corporations, etc.)" for whom information management measures are mandatory, and "private education and childcare providers (cram schools, sports clubs, after-school children's clubs, etc.)" aiming to obtain certification.

■ Background

Under the Children's Sexual Violence Prevention Act, target businesses are obligated to implement appropriate information management measures for "records confirming criminal facts, etc." (multiple requirements, including "technical information management measures" such as access control and virus countermeasures). Failure to comply may result in corrective orders, public disclosure, penalties, and for certified businesses, the risk of certification revocation.

However, it is not easy for businesses without dedicated IT staff to meet these requirements on their own. IT for WorkStyle has developed a dedicated package, the first in Japan, that enables such businesses to respond reliably and with low burden.

■ Status of Information Management Measures Compliance

This package complies with all requirements stipulated by the guidelines.

・Network management: Separation of dedicated networks

・Communication restrictions: Blocking/restricting unnecessary communications

・Access management: Introduction of multi-factor authentication

・Malware countermeasures: Introduction of endpoint protection

In addition to all guideline requirements, measures related to the duty of care are also implemented.

■ Continuous Response to Guideline Revisions

Guidelines related to the Children's Sexual Violence Prevention Act are expected to be revised in the future. IT for WorkStyle will continuously review the package configuration and corresponding requirements in response to changes in guideline content, ensuring that adopting businesses always meet the latest requirements.

■ About the Package Name "Hariti"

"Hariti" is the Sanskrit name for Kishimojin (Hariti) in Buddhism. Originally a demon who abducted children, she reformed after being admonished by Buddha and became a deity who protects all children. This name was adopted for the package because its spirit deeply aligns with the purpose of the Children's Sexual Violence Prevention Act, which aims to protect all children from sexual crimes.

■ Comment from Representative Seiji Kimura

"Responding to the Children's Sexual Violence Prevention Act is not only for obtaining certification but also for fulfilling the social responsibility of businesses to protect children's safety. However, for businesses without IT-savvy personnel, interpreting and implementing the requirements on their own is not realistic. Our office is the first in Japan to directly address this challenge and has established a system to collectively handle information management measures, allowing businesses to focus on their core operations."

■ Price and Application

Prices and plans are individually designed based on the size and existing environment of each business. Please feel free to contact us for a consultation.
