This service supports the effective and efficient formulation of a BCP (Business Continuity Plan) specifically for responding to cyberattacks, addressing the challenge that while the targets of cyberattacks are expanding to small and medium-sized enterprises, "sufficient preparedness is not in place due to a lack of personnel, budget, or specialized knowledge."

1. Background of Service Release

In recent years, the threat of cyberattacks has become increasingly serious, with a surge in attacks targeting not only large corporations but also the small and medium-sized enterprises that support their supply chains. In the event of a system failure leading to business interruption, it can escalate to a situation that shakes the very foundation of management, not only leading to a loss of corporate social credibility but also causing damage to business partners and posing risks of substantial damages.

For these reasons, it has become essential for companies of all sizes to establish BCPs that anticipate the unique damages caused by cyberattacks, in addition to traditional BCPs focused on natural disaster preparedness.

However, in reality, small and medium-sized enterprises face the challenge of "not knowing how to proceed" despite recognizing the need for countermeasures, due to constraints such as limited personnel, budget, and lack of specialized knowledge.

Against this backdrop, we are releasing this service to enable even small and medium-sized enterprises with limited resources to formulate effective plans in a short period. This service is characterized by a simple design that systematizes key points based on extensive support experience and knowledge, enabling effective BCP formulation through 5 sessions. By utilizing simple exercises and simulations, we support the efficient formulation of a "BCP that can be activated in times of crisis."

2. Service Features

◆ Formulation of an "Actionable" Cyberattack Response BCP Reflecting Management's Intent and On-site Opinions

To make a cyberattack response BCP functional, the involvement of management and on-site personnel is indispensable, while the information systems and security departments take the lead. This service is promoted through a unified system involving management, on-site personnel, and the information systems/security departments.

◆ Simple Design Formulated in 5 Sessions

Key points are systematized based on extensive support experience. Matters for consideration are divided into 5 sessions, designing a BCP that delivers maximum effectiveness in the shortest possible time.

◆ Consensus Building Among Stakeholders in a Short Time

By repeatedly experiencing simulated disaster scenarios through simple exercises and workshops, stakeholders can reach consensus on the rules necessary for their organization and clarify areas for improvement in a short period.

◆ Covers Both Security and Business Aspects

Supports the continuation of overall business operations, including not only system recovery procedures but also business continuity through alternative means and external public relations responses.

◆ Utilization of Simple Exercises and Simulations to Enhance Effectiveness While Formulating

Simple exercises and workshops are effectively incorporated into essentially all sessions. By having core members who will take leadership in times of crisis engage in direct dialogue, the formulation of the BCP and the improvement of its effectiveness are promoted in parallel.
