Information security policies and processes
The Fujitsu Group places ICT as our core business. Our corporate vision is to contribute to creating a safe, pleasant, networked society, we work to ensure and improve the level of information security throughout the Group.
In April 2016, we established the Fujitsu Group Information Security Policy in order to share this vision and encourage action by each employee.

Complete text of the Fujitsu Group Information Security Policy (Global Security Policy)
https://www.fujitsu.com/global/imagesgig5/InformationSecurityPolicy_en.pdf

Fujitsu Group appointed a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) under the authority of the Risk Management and Compliance Committee to further strengthen security measures in the Group. Moreover, in aiming to strengthen our global information security governance we have appointed Regional CISOs around the world.

Regional CISOs report to the CISO on information security measures implemented by security teams at each group company. The CISO periodically reports to the Risk Management and Compliance Committee on the status of information security measures, and also makes additional reports whenever necessary.

To prevent information leaks, instead of simply informing our employees of the various rules and regulations, it is important to raise the security awareness and skill level of each individual employee. The Fujitsu Group holds information management training for employees.
