Hitachi Showcases Cutting-Edge Security Technologies for AI at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Japan 2026

Hitachi Ltd. is set to take the stage at the upcoming KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Japan 2026, taking place from July 28 to 30 at the Pacifico Yokohama. This prestigious event, organized by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), will provide a platform for discussing the latest advancements in cloud-native technologies, a critical area of development in today's digital landscape.

As a platinum sponsor, Hitachi aims to share insights into the essential security technologies necessary for the responsible application of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Given the rapid proliferation of generative AI and AI agents across various sectors, enhancing security protocols to prevent data breaches and unauthorized access has become a pressing requirement.

During the event, Hitachi will host four lectures, the most presentations by any Japanese company. This recognition underscores Hitachi's significant contributions to the global open-source software (OSS) community. Among Hitachi's offerings will be solutions that demonstrate secure data integration for AI agents through the use of Keycloak and the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Hitachi's involvement doesn't stop at presentations; it will also serve as a diamond sponsor for the KeycloakCon Japan and a platinum sponsor for Japan Community Day, where the company will elaborate on safe data management and AI agent protocols.
