G/Governance
Information Security
Basic stance
The Nidec Group possesses information that is necessary for conducting its business activities, including not only the information produced or gathered within the Group but also information provided by its business partners. We understand that it is very important to protect and use these information assets properly and appropriately. Information that should be protected includes management information, technical information, financial information and personal information, which are extremely important. Deterioration or leakage of any such information may lead to loss of trust in us from our customers or the market, as well as a decline in our competitiveness. It may also result in a legal penalty.
We will work to prevent serious security incidents by identifying and assessing rapidly changing and increasing information security risks and taking effective measures according to the risks.

Information security structure
Strengthening physical security
Unlike cyber space, where offices are connected by networks, physical security measures such as locking, authentication, monitoring and recording have been implemented at each office to ensure that only authorized personnel can enter the relevant section, depending on the level of confidentiality. However, by establishing standard guidelines for the NIDEC Group, we will be able to ensure uniform security at all of our business sites.
Incident Response
In the case of an information security incident occurring within the NIDEC Group, we will establish standards for setting up an emergency response team, the organizations that will participate in the team, the roles of the team leaders, and the items and procedures that should be addressed, and we will develop these as standards for the NIDEC Group. We will also verify the practicality and effectiveness of the content described by conducting exercises and training in accordance with the established procedures. Through these activities, the NIDEC Group will be able to respond to emergencies in a uniform, comprehensive and timely manner.
We will continue to make improvements to achieve appropriate information security management that supports the business of the entire NIDEC Group by gradually standardizing the countermeasures that have been implemented by each company in the Group to date.
