LRM Inc. will raise a total of 200 million yen through a third-party allotment of new shares to Global Security Expert Inc. and Japan Cyber Security Fund No. 1 Investment Limited Partnership, in which GSX participates. LRM will also enter into a capital and business alliance agreement with GSX.
By realizing synergies with the 25 security-related companies participating in NCSF, we will contribute not only to the growth of our company but also to the development of the security industry as a whole.
Furthermore, by mutually utilizing the knowledge and resources of both companies based on our partnership with GSX, we will be able to flexibly respond to increasingly diverse customer needs while achieving growth and expansion for both companies.

We are a company that supports organizations in their information security. We operate the “Securio” security education cloud service and security consulting services, and by systematizing and raising people’s awareness, we work to help our customers achieve both the protection and utilization of information, thereby achieving sustainable improvements in corporate value.
The investment from this round of funding will be used for recruiting personnel and research and development of “Securio,” with the goal of having a total of 3 million users of the service by 2030.
As IT advances, digital transformation (DX) is accelerating with the use of cloud services and generative AI in a variety of industries and occupations.
On the other hand, malicious attackers’ use of generative AI and the dark web has led to cyberattacks becoming more sophisticated, ingenious, and large-scale, resulting in organizations around the world facing unprecedented security risks.
To address such risks, it is of course necessary to take physical and technical measures, but it is also essential to raise the security awareness of those who handle information through security education and to create a security culture throughout the organization.
There are many services offered in Japan, such as e-learning aimed at raising security awareness and targeted email attack training, and in recent years, foreign companies have also been expanding into these areas.
However, many services remain merely formal education, and there are not many services that can actually contribute to improving security standards.
“Securio,” offered by our company, is an all-in-one security education cloud developed by LRM, a security consulting company, based on its many years of track record and experience, and incorporates know-how to improve employees’ security awareness and change their behavior.
We are raising funds with the aim of having more companies use Securio and realizing a world where the damage caused by information leaks is eliminated.
