Welcome to the 32nd Cybersecurity Seminar by VLC Security

VLC Security Corporation, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, is set to host the 32nd session of its highly acclaimed "Thorough Live Explanation Series Seminar" on cybersecurity. This initiative aims to educate audiences about the rapidly changing cyber landscape, presenting up-to-date information for organizations and individuals alike.

Seminar Overview

The upcoming session will take place on February 20, 2026, from 16:30 to 17:30 JST. The title of this seminar is "Think from Attackers’ Perspective Rather Than Assets: A Comprehensive Explanation of Next-Gen ASM and Risk Management Revisited." The session will feature Masashi Kawamura, an Executive Trainer at VLC Security Arena, who possesses the prestigious CYBERGYM White Hacker qualification.

This series has garnered praise for its accessibility and clarity, making complex cybersecurity topics understandable for a wide audience. Masashi Kawamura’s extensive experience and expertise will provide attendees with invaluable insights into the mindset of cyber attackers.

Why Attackers’ Perspectives Matter

In today’s cybersecurity climate, attackers evaluate organizations not by their assets but by their vulnerabilities. They utilize Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) and AI to gather information and identify weak supply chains. This evaluation method is becoming more refined and accelerated each year. The traditional approach—assessing risk based on asset value—is insufficient to predict the realities of potential attacks.

The widening gap between actual attack scenarios and the assumptions behind risk assessments leads to the oversight of visible threats. A fundamental reevaluation is required, focusing on understanding how attackers think, what they observe, and where they target.

Seminar Content

The seminar will delve into recent high-profile incidents and the latest trends in CTI, keying into the thought processes of attackers and how AI can be leveraged to enhance our understanding of potential threats. Furthermore, participants will explore actionable strategies to shift from an asset-centric view to one that prioritizes the analysis of cyber attacks in managing risk effectively.
