KELA Japan, part of the Israeli cyber threat intelligence firm KELA, announced that Sysmex Corporation has adopted all of KELA Group’s solutions. Sysmex is based in Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture, with Kaoru Asano as President and CEO. Its stock code is 6869. The following are key solutions: “KELA Threat Intelligence,” “ULTRA RED,” the ASM/CTEM solution, and “SLING SCORE,” a system for supply chain risk management and security scoring.” This initiative aims to set up a strong global security system. It covers both domestic and international operations and has now been fully implemented.
Enhancing Cybersecurity Amid Rising Threats
Cyber threats like ransomware are rising. In 2020, Sysmex responded by creating the Sysmex-CSIRT, a team focused on cybersecurity incidents. The goal was to boost security for the Sysmex Group. This includes protecting over 70 years of intellectual property and knowledge. It also aims to ensure business growth and continuity.
Sysmex knows that threat intelligence is key for managing risks. So, they have added KELA’s cyber threat intelligence solutions. This implementation helps the company see threats in real-time. It allows them to quickly assess risk levels and prioritize mitigation efforts.

The “ULTRA RED” ASM solution also helps Sysmex-CSIRT spot risks linked to IT assets that might have been overlooked before. When the system finds vulnerabilities, it sends alerts and gives urgency scores. This helps the team tackle the most serious threats first.
Improving Global Security Coordination
Before, Sysmex’s headquarters managed security at its global offices. They also provided instructions for countermeasures when necessary. KELA’s solutions let overseas teams use a single security dashboard. This helps them respond to threats faster and work together better.
KELA gives Sysmex-CSIRT regular reports. These reports highlight new cyber threats and attack methods. This ongoing knowledge build-up helps the team monitor, triage, and respond to threats better. It also boosts Sysmex-CSIRT’s skills and operational maturity.
