In light of the evolving East Asian geopolitical landscape—where “Taiwan’s security is Japan’s security”—Taiwan and Japan are both strategic hubs for cybersecurity in the Asia-Pacific region and crucial players in the global supply chain. There is a growing consensus on the need for regional joint defense and mutual growth. Since establishing its Japanese subsidiary in 2019, CyCraft has built strong partnerships with major Japanese trading companies and listed enterprises, offering localized professional services. Drawing from its deep experience serving Taiwan’s semiconductor, financial, and public sectors, CyCraft delivers innovative, practical cybersecurity solutions tailored to Japanese clients.

Key achievements include:

• Supporting the Tokyo Metropolitan Government’s SME Cybersecurity Support Program, helping over 100 SMEs adopt AI-driven endpoint defense.
• Assisting a major nationwide Japanese service provider in implementing IASM (Identity Attack Surface Management) to strengthen account security.
• Over 60 large enterprises in Japan have adopted CyCraft’s AI-powered EDR as their incident response (IR) solution.

The event focused on the current state of the Japan-Taiwan cybersecurity landscape, with CyCraft sharing its insights into emerging threats. In his speech, CEO Dr. Benson Wu highlighted how in an era where “everything is AI,” hackers are also leveraging AI to identify vulnerabilities and devise new attack strategies. Defenders, he noted, must abandon traditional mindsets and embrace AI to build a more secure and resilient digital society.

CISO and Co-founder PK Tsung shared CyCraft’s practical experience helping Taiwan’s government, financial, and high-tech sectors adopt exposure management systems. He stressed that cybersecurity should shift from a reactive to a proactive strategy, using autonomous AI to preempt threats and achieve “victory without battle.”

Moreover, during the event, CyCraft announced the upcoming launch of its integrated XASM (eXtended Attack Surface Management) solution in Japan. This comprehensive cybersecurity framework combines External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Internal Attack Surface Management (IASM), and Endpoint Detection and Response/Managed Detection and Response (EDR/MDR) to deliver a one-stop, fully autonomous defense architecture for enterprises.

The event also marked the first public unveiling of CyCraft’s in-house developed Japanese-language LINE bot. This AI-powered assistant enables users to query free exposure intelligence or summarize cybersecurity news using natural language—an ideal companion for security professionals in the era of AI.(Download link: https://go.cycraft.ai/craftyjp)
