IssueHunt Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kazumasa Yokomizo), provider of "IssueHunt One"—a unified security platform integrating bug bounties, vulnerability assessments, and DevSecOps—announced on February 27th that it will co-host a webinar with Conoris Technologies on practical ISMS (Information Security Management System) strategies.
The webinar is scheduled for Thursday, March 26th, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM JST, and will be held online.
The theme of this webinar is: "Are your ISMS measures exhausting your team? Mastering third-party and development risks through systematic frameworks."
As companies adapt to new ISMS standards, many find that formal check-box exercises for vendor management and development control are placing an undue burden on frontline staff. This seminar will explain how to move away from "management just to pass audits" and shift toward "management to protect the business," which is the true purpose of the standard.
On the day of the event, Fumiya Miura from Conoris Technologies will discuss key control measures under the new ISMS standards and practical points for managing third-party risks. Kazumasa Yokomizo from IssueHunt will introduce methods for continuously visualizing development risks from a vulnerability management perspective. Attendees will gain concrete insights on shifting from manual, labor-intensive checks to tool-driven "continuous monitoring."
This event is designed for IT departments, security professionals, and development leads who face challenges in ISMS operations. By combining the expertise of both companies, the webinar proposes an approach that balances efficient audit compliance with substantive risk reduction.
IssueHunt remains committed to supporting Japanese companies in improving product security and establishing autonomous security operations through partnerships with various industry leaders.
■ ICT Startup League
Launched in FY2023, this support program originated from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' "Project for Supporting Seed-stage R&D for Startup Creation."
The ICT Startup League supports startups through four main pillars:
1. R&D Funding & Hands-on Support
Provides up to 20 million yen in R&D subsidies. Furthermore, the selection committee members remain involved after the evaluation process to foster growth. For companies that committee members are particularly passionate about, they provide ongoing support—similar to a "fan-driven" mentorship—by offering advice on business plans and creating growth opportunities.
2. Discovery & Nurturing
Providing opportunities for learning and networking to accelerate the business growth of league members. The program also focuses on discovering future entrepreneurs to expand the startup ecosystem.
3. Competition & Co-creation
Operating like a professional sports league, it creates a positive competitive environment where startups learn and challenge each other to secure the funding they need (up to 20 million yen). It also serves as a platform for co-creation, where league members collaborate and expand their businesses through sessions with committee members.
4. Promotion
The league partners with media outlets to broadcast the efforts of its members. By increasing visibility, the program aims to create new matching opportunities and business prospects.
