Briefing by News4U · First published

Today Sanae Takaichi said on X that Japan held a cybersecurity ministers meeting and formulated an emergency package after a wave of serious cyberattacks. She said the package has 4 pillars: stronger basic defenses that also use AI, better collection and analysis of threat information, more strategic responses to attacks, and stronger victim support and damage prevention. She said the Cabinet this morning already approved reserve funds for urgent needs, and that Tokyo will keep securing funding for the full package, consider amending the cyber response capability law, and aim for critical infrastructure operators to report attacks within hours, at least the same day.
