In recent years, advanced ransomware attacks exploiting AI and damage targeting supply chains have become increasingly serious. In particular, there is a growing trend to use related companies and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with weak defenses as "stepping stones" rather than targeting large corporations with robust defenses. However, many SMEs have faced significant hurdles in security measures due to "high introduction costs" and "lack of specialized personnel to operate them."

To protect business environments from increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, RSUPPORT will deploy the ransomware countermeasure system "WhiteDefender" as an ASP service (cloud-based). By eliminating the need for dedicated server construction and achieving both overwhelmingly low costs and operational convenience, it reduces the burden of endpoint protection and implementation hurdles for SMEs.

WhiteDefender is a "ransomware countermeasure solution" that employs a behavior-based algorithm specialized for the threat of "ransomware," which traditional antivirus software cannot fully prevent. It rapidly blocks even unknown ransomware and safely protects corporate information assets from attacks such as PC locking, file encryption, and data hostage-taking.

As a pioneer in remote control technology, RSUPPORT, which has provided solutions such as the remote access service "RemoteView" and remote support tool "RemoteCall," has adopted "WhiteDefender" to ensure customers can continue their business "safely" regardless of location in the hybrid work era.

Moving forward, RSUPPORT will combine WhiteDefender's powerful behavioral detection engine with its remote control technology to contribute to customers' security improvements through initial remote response in case of an incident.

*WhiteDefender is a ransomware countermeasure system developed by Everyzone Inc.

Reasons why "WhiteDefender" is optimal for SME ransomware countermeasures:

1. **Overwhelming Cost Performance with Reduced Initial Costs** Priced at an annual fee of 7,800 yen per PC (approximately 650 yen/month, excluding tax), it is designed for easy adoption by SMEs. Even in environments where expensive EDR products are difficult to implement, it can be used in conjunction with existing antivirus software to build an inexpensive, up-to-date ransomware defense layer.

2. **Centralized Management via ASP Service** Provides the cloud-based management platform "WDP (WhiteDefender Platform)." Even companies without dedicated IT staff can easily check the protection status of all terminals and formulate security policies through their browser.

3. **Support for "One-Person IT Departments" through Integration with Remote Support Functions** Integrates remote support functionality. If ransomware precursors are detected on a terminal at a branch, the head office administrator can use the remote support function from the WDP screen to assist the affected terminal. This allows for immediate status checks, isolation, and recovery actions without needing to travel to the site, thereby lowering the psychological and physical hurdles for incident response. (*Remote Support Function integration scheduled for completion within FY2026*)
