), provided by GMO Internet, Inc. (President and CEO: Tadashi Ito; hereinafter referred to as GMO Internet), a member of GMO Internet Group, Inc., will co-host a webinar titled “Cyberattack Countermeasures Seminar for Information Systems Departments – Overlooked Security Risks and What Organizations Should Do” (URL: https://beyondjapan.com/webinar_security_20250827/
) with Beyond Co., Ltd. (Representative Director: Masahiro Haraoka; hereinafter referred to as Beyond, URL: https://beyondjapan.com/
) on Wednesday, August 27, 2025.

In recent years, cyber threats have become increasingly sophisticated and diverse, constantly putting corporate IT assets at risk. In particular, unnoticed vulnerabilities and shadow IT that falls outside management oversight can serve as ideal entry points for attackers.

In this webinar, we will introduce concrete strategies for building a robust security framework by combining “ASM (Attack Surface Management),” which visualizes the full scope of externally exposed IT assets and continuously monitors and manages risks, with “MSP (Managed Security Provider),” where security operations experts provide 24/7 support on behalf of customers to address these emerging threats in the age of cyberattacks.

Based on the latest security trends, we will clearly explain next-generation security measures that can be implemented starting tomorrow to effectively protect IT assets that organizations may not fully grasp.
