E-Guardian Launches Entertainment Risk Shield
E-Guardian Inc., a comprehensive cybersecurity company based in Minato, Tokyo, has announced the launch of its new service, the
Entertainment Risk Shield, which will begin on September 29, 2025. This service aims to provide talent agencies with necessary resources to navigate the increasing complexity of content management in the entertainment industry amidst the rise of social media platforms.
As artists and performers find new outlets for their work beyond traditional media such as television and magazines, the demand for effective management solutions has surged. Talent agencies must juggle various tasks, including auditioning, business operations, and talent management, leading to resource shortages. The growing prevalence of social media has also introduced new challenges, including misinformation, defamation, and copyright infringement. Therefore, establishing a robust risk management system has become increasingly crucial for protecting both talent and agencies.
To address these challenges, E-Guardian introduced the
Entertainment Risk Shield as a safeguard, or shield, to protect talent agencies from a multitude of risks. This comprehensive support service focuses on internet risk management and includes various strategies tailored to the unique needs of each agency.
The Entertainment Risk Shield will leverage E-Guardian's years of experience in internet patrol and content verification to deliver social media education for talent and employees. By checking social media posts for potential incendiary content and undisclosed information before they go live, agencies can prevent unnecessary controversies. Additionally, the service enables timely detection of harassment, illegal reselling, and impersonation accounts through routine internet monitoring and collaboration with legal firms for prompt and comprehensive responses.
Beyond internet monitoring, the Entertainment Risk Shield offers 24/7 customer support and fan correspondence management for fan clubs, e-commerce sites, and agency websites. In instances when extra personnel are needed for events or unexpected issues, spot workers can be deployed flexibly, alleviating the burden of tasks and resource constraints on agency staff. This service can be customized according to individual agency needs, providing just the right amount of support required.
Acting as a shield for the entertainment sector, the Entertainment Risk Shield is set to assist talent agencies in managing risks and resolving challenges 365 days a year, allowing artists, creators, and talent to concentrate on nurturing their skills, creating content, and promoting their work. This commitment is expected to contribute positively to the growth of the entertainment industry.
E-Guardian remains dedicated to providing high-quality services while pursuing its mission,
