Enhancing Data Security: Ibaraki Water System Corporation's Adoption of RunDX
In response to amendments made to Japan's Personal Information Protection Act, the Ibaraki Water System Corporation has taken significant steps to safeguard individual data. As of April 1, 2023, local governments, including water utilities, are subject to the revised law, emphasizing the critical need for robust data management and privacy adherence. The organization recognized that just having rules for USB flash drive usage was insufficient; thus, they sought a more systematic solution to control device access and maintain data integrity.
As a result, Ibaraki Water System Corporation has adopted
RunDX, a device control software offered by Runexy. This tool leverages USB flash drives while ensuring a higher level of security, enabling the organization to address data leakage concerns while lowering costs. Notably, many municipalities nationwide have already successfully implemented RunDX, providing Ibaraki Water System with confidence in its reliability and effectiveness.
Compliance with Security Regulations
The reform of the Personal Information Protection Act compelled the local governments to enforce effective data management strategies. Prior to this change, the organization operated in offline settings with limited control measures, merely establishing guidelines for USB usage rather than implementing a comprehensive security system.
Recognizing this gap, the Ibaraki Water System evaluated various solutions and chose RunDX after a successful trial period. This decision allows the organization to implement
secure USB usage by enforcing that only approved devices can access sensitive information.
Key Resolutions Offered by RunDX
1.
Restricted USB Access: RunDX enables the organization to allow only those USB memory devices pre-approved by administrators, effectively minimizing the risk of unauthorized access.
2.
Audit Logging: The system tracks device operation logs, allowing for precise identification of origins in case of any challenges or breach attempts. This function is pivotal for accountability and transparency, especially under the new regulatory framework.
3.
Maintained Efficiency: While enhancing security measures, RunDX does not compromise on the efficiency of operations, allowing employees to operate seamlessly while ensuring the protection of sensitive data.
Ultimately, the implementation of RunDX has facilitated compliance with the revised law and enhanced the organization’s accountability. This initiative not only improves the safeguarding of community residents' information but also streamlines staff operations, assuring quality service delivery.
