SoftwareOne to Present at Microsoft Webinar on Ransomware Defense for Educational Institutions

SoftwareONE Japan K.K. (Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representatives: Kenji Hasegawa / Raphel Hermann Erp) will participate in a webinar hosted by Microsoft Japan on June 23, 2026, titled 'First Step in Ransomware Defense for Educational Institutions: Security Enhancement Starting with Visibility.'

Ransomware attacks targeting educational institutions are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and the damage is growing severe. However, many organizations struggle with where to begin and fail to fully comprehend their own security risks.

This webinar will analyze recent domestic incidents to explain the security threats surrounding educational institutions and provide specific methodologies for achieving baseline visibility.

Furthermore, the session will demonstrate how to visualize hybrid environments—including both on-premises and cloud infrastructures—using Azure Arc and Microsoft Defender for Cloud, featuring actual system interface concepts. In the latter half, speakers will outline how to prioritize risks and efficiently implement security measures under resource constraints, drawing from SoftwareONE Japan's extensive support history.

The online webinar is free of charge (prior registration required). Speakers include Yusuke Kodama from Microsoft Japan, as well as Taima Ishizone and Tetsuji Suzuki from SoftwareONE Japan.
