We invest ahead of the curve in growth fields such as PQC, countering fake content, 3D/AR/VR, and next-generation identity, aiming to be a "trusted infrastructure company" that supports the digital society of the future. Leveraging our indispensability as social infrastructure, strong synergies with our existing businesses, and the potential for sustainable earnings growth, we will achieve enhanced corporate value over the medium to long term.
Public-key cryptography widely used today, such as RSA and ECC, is exposed to the risk of being broken by quantum computers.
Anticipating this challenge, we are accelerating our preparations to migrate to PQC (Post-Quantum Cryptography). Through the validation of compliant algorithms and the issuance of test certificates, we are building a robust security foundation adapted to the quantum era. In doing so, we aim to capture new market opportunities and contribute to the social infrastructure of the future.
As AI-generation technology advances, fake videos and images have become a social issue.
In collaboration with international standardization bodies such as C2PA, we are contributing to the development of frameworks for content tampering detection and authenticity verification. Leveraging our trust foundation as a certification authority, we are taking on the challenge of building a global ecosystem for the trustworthy distribution of information, playing a central role in this rapidly growing market.
AI is accelerating the generation of 3D objects, making the use of digital twins increasingly realistic.
User interfaces are also evolving from text-centric to real-world-oriented ones that leverage voice and AR/VR.
We position these trends as a pillar of our business growth, exploring new forms of "authentication" for the AR/VR era through the fusion with next-generation identity technologies.
As the internet ecosystem transforms, new forms of identity verification that go beyond conventional certificates are in demand. We are actively investing in research and development of standardization trends and implementation technologies for next-generation identity. We are strengthening our position as a Global Endpoint ID Provider that delivers "trust" to every device, service, individual, and organization, supporting the digital society of the future.
