An environment where data can be used safely and securely is crucial for the continuous and steady development of the operations of the Company. For this reason, we view the assurance of information security as an important managerial issue, and continuously reinforce the protection of information about our customers and suppliers as well as confidential information on leading-edge technology. In addition, we strive to strengthen information security to ensure the stable operation of the entire supply chain.
