According to the popular theme rankings compiled by Minkabu and Kabutan, "Cybersecurity" ranks 21st.

The government held an interministerial meeting on the 18th regarding cybersecurity measures in light of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) performance and compiled a measures package. The focus is on U.S.-based Anthropic's new AI model "Claude Mythos," which is expected to improve cyber response capabilities but also raises concerns about malicious use risks, as misuse could significantly increase the speed and scale of attacks.

Response measures include "collecting and analyzing cybersecurity-related information, such as incident reports from critical infrastructure operators, across sectors and providing it in appropriate forms to entities that need it for damage prevention," "strengthening cybersecurity personnel training functions," and "promoting further cooperation with foreign government agencies and AI developers." Additionally, businesses that develop, provide, and operate software are required to release products with reduced vulnerabilities and create and provide patch programs.

In this context, Trend Micro Incorporated <4704>, which is strengthening its collaboration with Anthropic, deserves attention. Also worth monitoring are Digital Arts Inc. <2326>, a major web filtering software company; FFRI Security, Inc. <3692>, which offers a purely domestically-produced malware detection engine; AMIYA Corporation <4258>, which develops, manufactures, and sells its own security products and services; and Cyber Security Cloud, Inc. <4493>, which develops and provides cybersecurity services.
