Keynote Themes
The keynote presentations will cover critical issues relevant to the current landscape of IT and cybersecurity. Below are the selected speakers and their respective topics:
1. Hiroki Habuka, CEO of Smart Governance Inc., Special Professor at Kyoto University, Visiting Professor at the University of Tokyo, Lawyer in Japan and New York State
Topic: Governance in the Age of Agentic AI — Risks and Strategies for Businesses to Address Autonomous AI Agent Operations
Overview: As the adoption of shadow AI and autonomous AI agents increases rapidly, new threats such as prompt injection have emerged, raising the required control levels for businesses significantly. In this session, Mr. Habuka will explore the current trends in domestic AI governance, detailing the issues related to the proliferation of shadow AI, the required compliance levels for operators, and the integration of agentic AI with security measures and risk management.
2. Kunihito Matsumoto, Senior Evangelist at Fujitsu Ltd.
Topic: Shifting Security Measures into Business Strategy — New Era of IT Departments Driving Management and Field Operations
Overview: Cyberattacks are becoming increasingly professionalized, and security has often been viewed as a form of insurance against incidents. This disconnect between management and operational staff has presented challenges in Japan. With over 250 annual presentations, Mr. Matsumoto will focus on the realities of global cyberattacks and their impact on businesses, urging a shift in perspective to recognize security measures as crucial as office security protocols.
3. Atsuo Inomata, Professor and CISO at Osaka University
Topic: Designing the Blueprint for a Resilient Organization in the Age of Cyber Risks
Overview: The rising sophistication of cyberattacks has compelled organizations to evolve from a defensive stance to implementing resilience management integrated with business strategy. As an authority in security system building, Mr. Inomata will discuss how IT security departments can spearhead the creation of resilient organizations and what strategic value they can provide to management.
4. Toshio Nawa, Cybersecurity Advisor
Topic: Practical Guidelines for CISO and IT Security Managers: Initial Response and Reporting under the Cyber Capability Enhancement Act Starting October 2026
Overview: The Cyber Capability Enhancement Act will take effect on October 1, 2026, transitioning corporate security responses from voluntary measures to protocols that need to be explicable to partners, authorities, and customers. Mr. Nawa will elucidate the practical judgment criteria that CISO and IT managers should evaluate before implementation, focusing on operational responses from detection to reporting.
