National Cybersecurity Office - Japan

National Cybersecurity Office - Japan

The National Cybersecurity Office (formerly National Center of Incident Readiness and Strategy for Cybersecurity - NISC) was established in 2015 as a secretariat of the Cybersecurity Strategy Headquarters in collaboration with the public and private sectors to create a "free, fair and secure cyberspace" in Japan. NISC plays a leading role in coordinating intra-government collaboration and promoting partnerships between industry, academia, and public and private sectors.

NISC coordinates cybersecurity policy by formulating:

  • Cybersecurity Strategy
  • Cybersecurity Policy for Critical Infrastructure Protection
  • Common Standard on Information Security Measures of Government Entities
  • Cybersecurity Human Resource Development Plan
  • Cybersecurity Research and Development Strategy etc.

NISC takes a role of a governmental CERT, and NISC and JPCERT/CC, as a CERT covering private entities, work together as a national CERT.

NISC was renamed the National Cybersecurity Office in 2025.
