Optima Solutions, a specialist information security firm based in Minato-ku, Tokyo, led by CEO Koji Naka, has officially launched its new 'Cybersecurity Consulting' service to address escalating cyberattacks and supply chain risks, protecting corporate foundations and maintaining trust with business partners.

Leveraging over 20 years of experience in supporting the construction of corporate management systems, this hands-on consulting service goes beyond mere implementation of information security measures. It provides end-to-end support, from the identification of information assets and risk assessment to policy development, employee education, internal auditing, and continuous improvement.

The service aims to support companies in complying with the 'SCS (Supply Chain Security) Assessment Scheme,' which many businesses are now required to address, while simultaneously building highly effective security systems that function practically in the field, rather than just meeting formal requirements.

To commemorate the launch, a free seminar will be held on July 28, 2026, in Otemachi, Tokyo.

Background of the New Service

In recent years, cyberattacks targeting ransomware vulnerabilities and supply chain weaknesses have surged, making security reinforcement—not just for the company itself, but for its business partners as well—a critical priority. Consequently, there is an increasing demand in the business field to comply with the 'SCS Assessment Scheme.'

However, traditional security measures often focus on 'introducing the latest security tools or systems' as an end in itself, leading to formalistic rules that do not align with actual business operations. Relying solely on system implementation makes it difficult to continuously counter evolving cyber threats and ensure the safety of the entire supply chain.

Therefore, we have developed a service that prioritizes 'system building' rather than focusing on the implementation of specific tools. Based on our know-how and frameworks cultivated through supporting numerous companies in information security management, we provide end-to-end support from creating information asset inventories and implementing security measures based on risk assessments, to developing policies, conducting employee training, and performing internal audits to establish a PDCA cycle for continuous improvement.

We are launching an essential 'Cybersecurity Consulting (Hands-on Support Type)' that can be operated seamlessly in the workplace.

Overview and Three Key Features of 'Cybersecurity Consulting'

1. Risk-Based, Efficient and Highly Effective Design By conducting an inventory of information assets, we clarify what the company needs to protect. We then perform risk assessments to identify priority risks. This approach ensures that, rather than simply introducing the 'latest security products,' the company implements optimized, lean, and highly effective security measures tailored to its specific needs.

2. Support for Establishing PDCA Operations We do not stop at developing policies and measures. We establish a PDCA cycle that includes employee education, the standardization of operational rules, internal audits, and improvement activities. Through periodic reviews and hands-on support, we prevent the formalization of security systems and realize organizational operations that function continuously.

3. Practical System Building Aligned with the SCS Assessment Scheme We provide robust support for clearing the benchmarks of the 'SCS (Supply Chain Security) Assessment Scheme,' which is increasingly being requested by major business partners and parent companies. By simplifying complex requirements and integrating them into internal structures as concrete management controls, we support the acquisition of trust from the entire supply chain and the creation of business opportunities.
