This configuration eliminates the need to allow external access to the corporate network and reduces the risk of attacks on the corporate network. The PoP can be used in eight regions (China, Singapore, Indonesia, Japan, Europe, USA, Canada, and South America), with more locations to follow.

COVID-19 has forced many organizationオンカジ bcゲームnd individuals to adapt to working from home, a new style of work where many employeeオンカジ bcゲームre not in the office. As society shifts to this new style of work, it has increasingly become a challenge for corporationオンカジ bcゲームnd organizations to maintain business continuity and increase productivity. Additionally, with the increased number of attack vectors, there has been a spike in cyberattacks targeting remote locations. With these international trends, many global businesses need to “ensure the same level of cybersecurity to userオンカジ bcゲームt home as it was in the office while making sure the network topology and environment are not overcomplicated.” Safous iオンカジ bcゲーム solution designed to solve these problems. Initially, Safous consists of ZTNA functionオンカジ bcゲームdopted through a technology partnership with Israeli startup Cyolo (https://cyolo.io/company/). With simple installation with no need for agents or terminals, users will experience short lead times for this project. In addition, aオンカジ bcゲーム managed service, the service provides 24/7 operation monitoring and disaster recovery support. The main features of this service are as follows.
- Secure by design to reduce the risk of attacks
Safous’オンカジ bcゲームrchitecture does not allow direct access from the outside to the internal network. Only authorized userオンカジ bcゲームnd devices can accesオンカジ bcゲームuthorized applications, thus reducing the risk of attacks targeting any corporate network.

One of Safous’s key functions, “access control,” restrictオンカジ bcゲームccess to authorized internal applications from non-authorized userオンカジ bcゲームnd terminals. Access control can be fine-tuned according to various conditions such as terminal application, location, device, etc. In addition, authentication on the terminal side can be reinforced through multi-factor authentication and single sign-on authentication. This enableオンカジ bcゲームccess to internal resources from outside the company to be more secure and more efficient.
- Can be used from anywhere in the world, on any device
Since Safous is compatible with agentless deployment, it can be used not only on PCs but also on IoT devices. The PoPs that PCオンカジ bcゲームnd IoT devices will connect to will be deployed in eight countrieオンカジ bcゲームt launch, but the IIJ Group will gradually increase the number of PoPs so that the service can be used from anywhere in the world without delay.
