NTT Smart Connect Corporation will begin selling an option to expand the range of supported devices to include mobile devices for its “wakucone plus” service, which provides one-stop AI-based business analysis and IT risk management.
This allows us to integrate mobile device information with traditional PC operation log analysis, enabling comprehensive visualization and analysis of the entire business environment. This contributes to business process transformation tailored to our customers’ actual business practices and further enhances IT risk management.
Background and Objectives
wakucone plus provides comprehensive support for DX promotion and security measures by offering a one-stop solution that includes not only the visualization of actual business operations but also the identification of IT assets scattered throughout the company and the detection and resolution of potential security risks.
In recent years, the use of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets has become standard practice in businesses, in addition to PCs. However, traditional management methods have failed to capture the actual state of mobile usage, leading to challenges such as relying on PC operation logs for understanding usage patterns and overlooking information leakage risks.

In response to this situation, we have added an optional feature to “wakucone plus” that enables flexible operation tailored to customers’ device usage. This will allow for a more effective understanding of actual business operations and IT risk management by integrating PCs and mobile devices.
Overview of Optional Features
With the addition of this optional feature, the following operational possibilities will be available:
- Visualization and analysis of mobile device usage In addition to PC operation logs, the visualization of mobile device information enables integrated analysis of business operations.
- Strengthening IT risk countermeasures By enabling the bulk distribution of applications to mobile devices, This allows for increased efficiency in kitting operations and the suppression of shadow IT by prohibiting the use of unauthorized applications.
- Operational control through policy setting It is possible to ensure a secure usage environment by restricting the use of external Wi-Fi networks, etc.
Benefits and Application Scenarios
The addition of this optional feature will enable optimization of actual operations, taking into account not only the operational status but also on-site activities.
- Understand the actual work situation “regardless of location” By integrating PC operation logs and mobile device usage status, we can understand the movements inside and outside the office. We will use this to make improvements that are in line with the actual situation.
- Visualization and proper operation of sales and field operations By tracking the location information of devices, it can be used to understand the actual state of sales activities, such as checking the travel history while out and about. This enables management that takes into account the actual situation on the ground.
- Balancing operational efficiency and strengthening governance Policy control over business devices, such as bulk app distribution, allows for appropriate management without burdening the field staff.
