Providing comprehensive measures, employing state-of-the-art technologies, including AI with a view to protecting business continuityCorporate security measures should be ongoing, not just a temporary fix. Types of security measures and priorities will vary

the industry, business type and work you do.

There are various scenarios when implementing security measures, such as cases where the issues are clear or where the

target of the measures is determined, but implementing the measures is not the end. What’s important is to establish a life

cycle of the system, including planning, implementation of measures and support until operation.

operation and monitoring for security measures for which appropriate system design is required for each customer. Also, in

Social responsibility as a member of Hitachi GroupMore than ever, IT is becoming an indispensable element for the resolution of social issues that are increasing in complexity such as environmental and

resource problems. As a key player in the information and telecommunication systems business of the Hitachi Group, we will further strengthen our

awareness of our role and continue to meet the demands and expectations of society.

Diversity managementIn order to leverage the differences of each person and link that to the creation of value, Hitachi Solutions promotes diversity management driven by the

commitment of top management. We aim to create new value by striving to develop an organization where the diverse human resources working at our

company will be able to display their abilities to the greatest extent possible regardless of gender, nationality or disabilities.

Basic concept of Corporate Social ResponsibilityThe corporate philosophy of Hitachi Solutions promises our contribution

to the resolution of challenges faced by the global community and our

customers by leveraging diverse management resources of our company,

as indicated in the word “Solutions” (i.e. resolving problems) in our name.

Indeed, we believe that our CSR goes hand in hand with the actualization

of this corporate philosophy. We will constantly think what we can do

through IT to resolve the various challenges in society and provide

solutions that create value together with society.

Corporate Social Responsibility through business (security solution)In recent years, there has been an increase in inter-business cooperation

for the creation of new value, causing diversification in work styles, IT

infrastructures and the handling of information assets; thus, security risks

are also changing. Meanwhile, information leakage risks such as cyber

attacks and internal fraud are also growing in complexity. Hitachi

Solutions provides a secure information infrastructure environment

tailored to the purpose of each company’s security solution, so that you

can carry out your company activities securely, whenever and wherever

you are.

Hitachi Solutions holds support event to endorse the “Science & Technology Challenge” promoted by the Cabinet Office of JapanEndorsing the “Science & Technology Challenge”, a program run by the

Cabinet Office of Japan to help support the career options of female

junior/senior high school and university students interested in the field of

science and technology, Hitachi Solutions held a summer support event

“Jobs creating the future ☆ Experience the excitement of IT”. The event

took on a workshop format where young female employees gave

participants the chance to experience what it is like to work as an SE,

introducing themes that were close to home and easy to understand. The

workshop was designed to increase the participant’s knowledge of the IT

industry and help expand career awareness among junior and senior high

school students through an exchange of opinions on the theme of “job

satisfaction”.

Rigorous implementation of complianceThe corporate standards of conduct of Hitachi Solutions sets forth that we

must firmly understand that the company is a member of society and that

we must aim to secure fair and transparent corporate activities.

At Hitachi Solutions, we have set October of each year as the Corporate

Ethics Month, and we are striving to implement corporate ethics and

compliance even more rigorously, such as by holding an e-learning

training for the entire Hitachi Group.

Environmental activitiesIn line with the three pillars of Hitachi Group’s environmental vision

consisting of “Prevention of Global Warming”, “Conservation of

Resources” and “Preservation of Ecosystems”, Hitachi Solutions has

established an environmental management system to promote our

environmental activities. Through the provision of products and solutions

that take the environment into consideration, we are carrying out efforts

towards reducing our environmental impact on society.

Participating in the community and developing the communityA brass band comprised of employees carries out music activitiesHitachi Solutions holds a regular recital for the purpose of providing a

place for music appreciation and cultural exchange. Also, by holding joint

performances with middle schools in Shinagawa ward, we are also

providing a place for people in the community to enjoy music.

Information security and protection of personal informationAll employees are striving to prevent information leakage based on the

understanding that the company’s technical information as well as

information related to transactions with customers is strictly confidential.

Also, in terms of internal system, we have implemented the following

measures company-wide: embedding PC encryption functions and

medium control functions, executing central management of virus

countermeasures, applying thin clients, and taking measures against

cyber attacks. We are striving to implement these measures rigorously as

part of our information security policy and rules.

In terms of the protection of person information, Hitachi Solutions was a

forerunner in the industry to acquire the “privacy mark” in 1998.

We will make continuous efforts to protect and appropriately handle the

personal information of all employees and stakeholders by setting forth a

“Hitachi Solutions Personal Information Protection Policy” and operating a

“Personal Information Protection Management System”.

Hitachi Solutions was selected in the “Diversity Management Selection

100” awarded by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry （Japan） to

companies that have increased value through diversity management. This

communication towards advancing the roles played by foreign nationals

and workers with disabilities.
