Algomatic Inc. operates under the vision of 'Transforming Japanese society through an AI revolution,' supporting businesses in transforming their operations, organizations, and systems using generative AI technologies. As multiple projects and services launch simultaneously and cutting-edge AI-driven development accelerates, the company has faced growing challenges in gaining comprehensive visibility into vulnerabilities and establishing rapid response mechanisms across its expanding and diverse cloud environments.

To address these challenges, Algomatic adopted 'yamory' as a foundational platform to centrally visualize infrastructure-wide risks and efficiently manage continuous vulnerability remediation. By enabling rapid impact assessment and transparent tracking of response progress, the company has successfully balanced enterprise-wide vulnerability mitigation with high-speed development.

In this case study, we interviewed Ryosuke Hagiwara from the Corporate Division, discussing the background of the adoption, current usage, post-implementation changes, and future outlook.

Case Study Summary

[Challenges]

- Difficulty in cross-functionally assessing the impact of vulnerabilities across multiple cloud environments where numerous projects run in parallel - Security responses were often delayed due to workload concentration on a few engineers in a system where IT responsibilities are shared - Lack of a structured system to log and manage the rationale and history of responses to detected vulnerabilities

[Key Factors in Adoption]

- Ability to objectively prioritize risks based on concrete data such as proof-of-concept (PoC) availability - Comprehensive Japanese documentation and FAQs, enabling smooth operation even without deep technical expertise - A dedicated tool that enables continuous vulnerability management across the organization, fostering improved security awareness

[Post-Adoption Benefits]

- Impact assessments, previously time- and labor-intensive, are now completed swiftly through centralized dashboard management - Increased internal discussions on vulnerabilities and security trends, raising overall team security sensitivity - Recognized as a strategic initiative toward certification readiness, enabling clearer visualization and sharing of risk management status with executive leadership
