Macnica (hereafter Macnica, head office location: 1-5-5 Shin-Yokohama, Kohoku-ku, Yokohama, President: Masahiro Miyabukuro), which imports, develops, and sells network equipment, is considering countermeasures against targeted attacks. From April 1, 2015, we will begin offering the "Cybersecurity Workshop for Enterprises," an exercise aimed at end-user companies that are

Targeted attacks are attacks by attackers with a clear purpose against specific companies or organizations, unlike general attacks that target an unspecified number of people. Attackers are fully aware that target companies have introduced conventional security countermeasure products, and they use techniques to evade their detection and innovate their attack methods on a daily basis.
In this way, targeted attack methods are becoming more complex and sophisticated, making it difficult to grasp the scope of countermeasures. In order not to repeat attacks and countermeasures, it is extremely important to understand the essential scope of countermeasures.

The exercise "Cybersecurity Workshop for Companies" that Macnica has started offering is aimed at end users who have already introduced conventional security products and want to understand the weaknesses of their company's security measures in countering targeted attacks. We ask engineers who are in charge of planning security measures for companies to understand the details of targeted attacks, attack methods, and attackers' aims, become aware of their company's weaknesses, and provide the essential scope of countermeasures against targeted attacks. The purpose is to help you understand.
In this service, we will explain malware's intrusion routes, methods of hiding and expanding infiltration, and attacker behavior patterns and techniques based on Kill Chain (*). We also offer specific exercises such as searching for suspicious emails among received emails.

Macnica will leverage its knowledge gained through many years of experience in security to help customers strengthen their security measures.
