On October 13th, over 200 attendees dialled in from Asia and around the Globe for the Charter of Trust Tokyo Virtual Roadshow: “How the industry is reshaping cybersecurity in our connected world”, an event hosted by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and NTT.
Shinichi Yokohama, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of NTT and Dr. Eisaku Ito, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries opened by highlighting the impact of the pandemic: “We have seen an increased decoupling of movement of goods, services and people paralleled by a surge in online communications, making trust-based communication matter all the more today”. Mr. Yokohama advocated for a collective emphasis on detection and response – a considerable but necessary paradigm shift given that a perfect protection is no longer possible. That is why Charter of Trust establishes Trust through people and processes.
Julian Meyrick, Vice President at IBM Security and Dr. Stefan Saatmann, Global Coordinator of Cybersecurity Policy at Siemens provided the audience with an introduction into the Charter of Trust’s vision and activities. They outlined the Charter of Trust’s 10 principles and its global collaborations with government agencies and research institutes, notably through the Associated Partners Forum.
Toshikazu Okuya, Director of the Cybersecurity Division at the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI) presented the advances of the Cyber-Physical Security Framework (CPSF). Atsushi Umino, Director, Office of the Director-General for Cybersecurity at the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) shared Japan’s various policy initiatives on cybersecurity, from 5G to IoT, and safer teleworking measures.
Lastly, Benjamin Ang, Senior Fellow, Deputy Head of Centre of Excellence for National Security (CENS), RSIS, emphasised the importance and benefits of cross-sector information-sharing between academia, public and private sectors.
As panellists shared their insight on the state of cybersecurity regulation in Japan through the lenses of the private sector, academia and the regulators, all agreed that the fast pace of this sector requires agility from all actors.
Stay tuned for more Charter of Trust virtual events with online roadshows planned in Geneva and Madrid, as well as deep-dive webinars on the Charter of Trust Principles such as “Education,” “Security by Default,” and “Transparency and Response.”

36th Cyber Security Day: Working together for more resilience in the digital future
Strong networks and effective cooperation are the key to successfully shaping the digital future in Germany. Cybersecurity is a team effort, and that was again visible last week at the 36th Cyber Security Day in Berlin.
🌐On 26 September 2024, the Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI), Alliance for Cyber Security, and the DIHK invited experts, companies, authorities and political decision-makers to jointly strengthen Germany's cyber resilience.
The event was a great mix of policy debate, practical exchange, workshop and networking under the motto ‘Stronger Together: Greater Resilience through Cooperation’.
✨ One of the highlights of the day was the closing panel with Claudia Plattner, President of the BSI, Dr. Stefan Saatmann, Deputy Head Berlin Office at Siemens, Konstantin von Notz, Member of the Bundestag for B90/Greens, and Alexander von Gernler, German Informatics Society, interchanging ideas to foster resilience through collaboration. Initiatives like the CoT baseline requirements and its huge potential for international harmonizing cybersecurity regulations were discussed as well.
Let’s all work together so that closer cooperation between the BSI and businesses bring more tangible effects to increase digital resilience. Special thanks to Nils Hasenau for providing the excellent photos and also to Simon Ulmer and Ralf König for attending the event.

Nordic Cyber Summit 2024
The Charter of Trust at the Nordic Cyber Summit
What a great opportunity for Morten Kromann, Head of Industrial Security Denmark at Siemens, to present the Charter of Trust perspective on cybersecurity regulations like Hashtag#NIS2 at the Nordic Cyber Summit in Copenhagen.
This year the summit was again a formidable event to engage with top cybersecurity experts, share insights, and discuss strategies to navigate the ever-evolving threat landscape in the Nordic region with the theme “Fortifying the Future: Building Cyber Resilience in a Transformed World”.
A main aspect highlighted by Morten was the discrepancies between the NIS2 directive’s incidents reporting timeframe and related provisions adopted in other legislations. These regulatory overlaps create difficult compliance environments for industry and costly operational pressures which add to the fragmentation of the market instead of harmonizing it. That is why the Charter of Trust emphasizes streamlining reporting requirements stemming from these different legislative frameworks and developing single entry points for reporting on the national level.
These and more points have been discussed during our Security-by-default Webinar on the 29th of October. See the events section on this website to find the recording of the webinar.
