Structure
The information security management system consists of the Information Management Committee made up of key executive officers from each business division and Group companies, and the Information Security Subcommittee operating under the Information Management Committee. The Information Management Committee formulates policies on investment and strategies related to information management for the entire Group.
The Information Security Subcommittee conducts policy enactment and implementation measures and activities such as employee training, countermeasures to deal with an incident when it occurs, and information sharing.
As the security officer of their respective affiliated organizations, each member of these subcommittees strives to maintain and enhance information security. In addition, as an organization that oversees IT, we established the Global IT Strategy Center in April 2021. It is headed by the chief information officer (CIO) and membership also comprises IT managers of the regional headquarters of the Anritsu Group. The office will focus on strengthening controls over IT, including security, at overseas Group companies.
