Survey: One-Third of Japanese Firms Hit by Cyberattacks This Year

The spending signal is the more telling one: a third of firms reporting attacks, paired with nearly two-thirds planning to raise security budgets, suggests cyber risk is being priced into corporate planning rather than treated as an exceptional event. For crypto and RWA businesses, Japanese counterparties and service providers are likely to face tighter vendor scrutiny and more demanding security assurances. Whether that spending translates into measurable resilience — and whether the wage expectations noted alongside it hold — is the open question.
