Japan Society of Security Management (JSSM)

 Purpose:

 

JSSM was organized in 1986. At that time, it was, in fact, the only academic organization that explicitly included the word “Security” in its title. The purpose of the organization is to contribute to IT and network system‘s security. JSSM covers many approaches to solving security problems from a managerial point of view, and providing solutions in the area of risk management.

The role of the Department for Foreign Contacts is to handle all issues that are related to foreign affairs. For this purpose, JSSM prepared this site in English for Non-Japanese people around the world.
