Assured Cloud Evaluation, a security credibility assessment service for cloud services operated by Assured Co., Ltd., has been adopted by H2O Retailing Co., Ltd. An interview article detailing the adoption case study has also been published.
H2O Retailing Group operates a wide range of businesses, from department stores and supermarkets to building maintenance companies.
The IT Management Office, which oversees security measures for the entire group, faced challenges in evaluating cloud services adopted by each company, including the limitations of traditional checklists and the workload on staff due to interactions with service providers. Therefore, they introduced “Assured Cloud Evaluation,” which enables objective risk assessments by security experts. This quantitative and unbiased evaluation has reduced the workload on staff and improved their satisfaction, while also achieving advanced cloud service management, such as classifying services according to risk.
