Citizen Watch Company seleccionó a Tenable para proporcionar visibilidad hacia el riesgo cibernético

Tenable®, Inc. the Exposure Management company, today announced that Citizen Watch Co., Ltd (CITIZEN), a well-established name and brand leader in the watch industry for over 100 years, has chosen Tenable Vulnerability Management to reduce business risk related to its move to the cloud.

Founded in Japan in 1918, CITIZEN is renowned for creating quality timepieces at a superior value. With a commitment to its rich legacy, CITIZEN saw the need to adapt to modern demands while upholding the highest standards of cybersecurity. CITIZEN decided to transition its business systems to the cloud revealing challenges in managing on-premises IT assets effectively.

The expense of conducting traditional penetration tests typically amounted to several million Yen for every hundred IP addresses, limiting CITIZEN’s ability to assess its systems to once a year. This delay posed a problem, especially for newly built servers awaiting evaluation. To address this, CITIZEN reallocated their budget towards deploying a vulnerability management solution to assess assets, visualize internal servers, and identify vulnerabilities promptly.

With its leading vulnerability detection capabilities, intuitive user interface, and seamless integration with CITIZEN’s existing infrastructure, Tenable emerged as the preferred solution to assess assets, visualize internal servers and identify vulnerabilities promptly. 

Since its deployment in June 2023, Tenable Vulnerability Management has empowered CITIZEN to conduct monthly assessments of internal assets within its data center. The platform provides real-time visibility into vulnerabilities, enabling CITIZEN’s IT team to promptly address security issues and mitigate potential cyber risks.

"We can now visualize previously unidentified nodes with a high degree of precision, allowing us to comprehensively understand vulnerability information," said Mr. Yoshitaka Yuuki, Information Systems Department at CITIZEN. "Tenable Vulnerability Management also empowers us to evaluate whether system owners are proactively addressing vulnerabilities. If not, we can leverage this information to initiate discussions and drive efforts towards resolving these issues."

Furthermore, Tenable’s unified management console simplifies the monitoring and management of on-premises assets, eliminating the need for separate consoles and streamlining operational workflows. The platform’s user-friendly interface and comprehensive reporting capabilities have received praise from CITIZEN’s board members, facilitating informed decision-making and proactive risk management.

“Not only has Tenable Vulnerability Management enhanced our ability to identify and remediate vulnerabilities, but it has also fostered a culture of security awareness and collaboration across our organization,” said Mr. Yoshitaka Endo, Information Systems Department at CITIZEN.

"As organizations modernize their infrastructure, the need for real-time visibility of all blindspots cannot be understated,” said Naoya Kishima, country manager for Tenable Japan. “Having a full, continuously updated and comprehensive understanding of all assets, whether on-premises or in the cloud, is the gold standard for any successful security program. We are honoured to be part of CITIZEN’s cybersecurity journey.”
