In June, the restriction on crossing prefectural borders was lifted in Japan, and in Europe, there is a movement to gradually open borders. It seems that the world is slowly moving to the normality of the past.
However, after this unprecedented crisis, there is one thing that is unlikely to be completely restored even if the pandemic disappears: our way of working.
Three keywords for defining work in the post-Corona age
With the spread of the Novel Coronavirus, many companies experienced remote work for the first time. Now, it seems that more and more people will return to regular work in the near future, but even so, many managers believe that everything cannot be restored to what it once was.
In the post-Corona age, where productivity and work-life balance are more important than ever, the three keywords are “collaboration,” “flexibility,” and “security.”
■ Collaboration
Accelerating innovation through collaboration with other companies and the use of freelancers will become more and more common in the future. Collaboration with outside entities is an efficient way to create new value and profit in the shortest time possible.
■ Flexibility
From this experience, many will realize that remote work is in fact possible. From now on, not only large companies, but also small- and medium-sized ones, will accept more flexible work styles to some extent, according to employee circumstances and lifestyles.
■ Security
Strengthening information security is essential to promote the collaboration and flexibility mentioned above. Instead of a passive attitude of “implementing minimum measures,” a positive mindset of “always pursuing the best and latest security measures” is required.
Will cloud storage become commonplace in the post-Corona age?
In order to strengthen collaboration with others and promote more flexible working styles, it is important to create an environment that enables smooth and secure file exchange. However, project management and file version management can quickly become complicated with the use of conventional email attachments.
To meet this need, the use of cloud storage is rapidly expanding. Files can be easily uploaded and downloaded when needed and are always updated to the latest version. There is no need to keep track of which version was sent to who when. Another advantage is that it does not require labor or cost to operate the file server in-house.
Reasons to use Tsukaeru Filebako
Tsukaeru’s Filebako cloud storage service is used by many companies, organizations, and educational institutions nationwide. Here are some excellent reasons for this growing support:
■ Easy and smooth collaboration

While various social activities are now being conducted online because of the novel Coronavirus, it is still as important as ever to maintain information security measures. Especially for corporate websites, the introduction of SSL certificates is indispensable.
What is an SSL certificate?
SSL certificates are a form of technology that encrypts communication on the Internet and allows users to access websites safely. The introduction of an SSL certificate to a website encrypts all data sent and received between the server and user, making unauthorized access, data tampering, and wiretapping extremely difficult.
As an indication of greater security, websites with SSL certificates will have a URL that starts with “https://” instead of “http://.” Nowadays, when users use most major web browsers to access websites without SSL certificates, they will receive warning messages regarding security and communication.
The need to migrate SSL certificates to TLS1.2
In order to operate websites with complete peace of mind, it has become indispensable to use SSL certificates. However, since SSL (and its successor SSL/TLS) is constantly upgraded to keep pace with developments in technology, security cannot be ensured unless the latest version is installed.
Currently, there is a strong demand for the use of SSL/TLS 1.2 or later versions. Earlier versions have serious vulnerabilities and are not recommended due to security concerns.
Tsukaeru SSL Certificates: Safe and secure
Tsukaeru offers “Tsukaeru SSL Certificates,” a service that allows you to easily and inexpensively install SSL certificates. You can rest assured that the latest version of the SSL certificate, as well as full technical support, will ensure the highest level of security.

Servers are essential for running a company’s websites or systems.
While it is common to choose a “dedicated” or “shared” server, do you know about the new, popular “VPS” option?
What is VPS in the first place?
VPS stands for “Virtual Private Server,” and as the name implies, the basic idea is to create a dedicated server in a virtual environment.
What makes VPS a game-changer is that one physical server is virtually divided by “virtualization technology” for each user. By adopting this technology, it is possible to create multiple “virtual servers” in one physical server and place independent environments (individual memory, disk space, software, etc.) each one.
Since each virtual server is independent, there is little chance that one will affect another.
DIfferences between VPS, dedicated servers, and shared servers
A dedicated server is a service in which one physical server is contracted for the exclusive use of the customer’s choice. It provides the highest degree of flexibility and stability but a slightly higher cost.
A shared server is a service where multiple users share a physical server. It has the lowest price and is a popular choice with those who just want simple usage (site operation, mail account management, etc.) One disadvantage can be limited custom settings and usage may be affected by other users.
VPS is a service that balances the benefits of both, providing a similar flexibility to that of a dedicated server along with lower costs like a shared server.
What is the difference between a container type VPS and VM type VPS?
There are two main types of VPS: container type and VM type.
The container type is a method of realizing virtualization by arranging a package called a “container” (a collection of software and various operating environments ) on one host operating system.
The VM type, on the other hand, is a method for realizing virtualization by preparing a guest operating system for each user on top of the host operating system and creating a “virtual machine” like a dedicated server.
The container type VPS has the following advantages:
・Effortless operation
・Flexible and effective use of resources
・Simple and easy environment construction
The VM type VPS has the following advantages:
・User can select guest operating system
・More finely customizable than container type
Recently, users are more likely to select the flexible container type, but in some cases, VM type is the better option if more detailed settings are necessary.
Advantages of Tsukaeru Cloud VPS
Tsukaeru Cloud VPS is becoming a popular VPS service of choice. Here is a summary of some of the advantages:
・Flexibility:：Container or VM type can be selected. For VM type, Linux and Windows operating systems can be chosen.
・High availability（HA configuration）：In the unlikely event of a physical failure, relocation of services will take minutes as compared to several hours.
・Plesk：Equipped with Plesk, the latest version of the powerful and easy-to-use server management tool, you can easily manage your server from the browser window.
・Various templates: Server specifications can be selected to create combinations to suit your needs.
・Safe and secure: Tsukaeru servers operate in an extremely secure domestic data center with the highest levels of
security always maintained.

Due to the current novel Coronavirus situation, a phenomenon that can be called “last-minute remote work” is occurring. After the declaration of a state of emergency in Japan, the nationwide remote work implementation rate has risen by 27.9%. In Tokyo alone, 49.1% of regular workers are working remotely (*Persol Research and Consulting Institute). Of these, 68.7% report that this is their first remote work experience and that this unfamiliarity can cause a variety of problems.
Increasing Cybercrime
Cybercrime incidents are of particular concern for everyone. As corporate security measures are being stretched and loosened by the expansion of remote work, cybercriminals are taking advantage where and when they can.
【Increasing cybercrime】
1. Email phishing
Malicious email that attempts to trick IT department staff, management, business partners, etc. to click on links that lead to fake websites in order to steal personal and login information.
2. Malware attack
A form of cyberattack where a seemingly legitimate email contains a virus or ransomware program that is secretly downloaded when an attachment is opened or a link is clicked.
3. Video conferencing system exploit attack
This increasingly popular attack method takes advantage of vulnerabilities in widely used video conferencing software to hijack a user’s computer and send spam emails with fake video conference invitation emails.
Basic cybersecurity review
Even if your company falls victim to just one of these cyber attacks, the potential damage to finances, confidential information, social credibility, etc. is too great to risk. Now that there are greater vulnerabilities due to an increase in remote work, the basics of cybersecurity should be reviewed.
【Basic, protective security measures for remote work】
1. Thoroughly implement all email security measures
Email is the most common method for cyber attacks. In the case when there is even a small suspicion about an email, it is important to contact the sender by other means, such as telephone, and avoid clicking a link or downloading an attached file. Introducing a system that blocks such email and spam is essential.
Tsukaeru MailBuster provides email security with 100% virus and 99.98% spam blocking.
2. Avoid simple passwords
Are you using simple passwords such as “1234,” “abc123,” “qwerty,” “admin,” and even “password” to ki==log into your business computer or system? These types of simple passwords greatly increase your chances of falling victim to a cyber attack.
3. Always update computer OS and software
These OS and software updates contain very important security changes and vulnerability fixes. It is best to install as soon as the update notification is received.
4. Choose the tool with the proper security measures
The best way to effectively raise the level of remote work security is by choosing the right tools. Security should always be the top priority when making decisions.
“Tool selection” affects remote work outcomes
To achieve the high level of security needed for remote work, we recommend Tsukaeru Business Solutions. The thorough encryption using the latest protocols, detailed access permissions, and authentication system strictly blocks unauthorized logins. Tsukaeru products are equipped with the most advanced security measures for all situations.

In this seemingly never-ending Coronavirus epidemic, the ways people work in this country are changing in unexpected ways. It is obvious that remote work is expanding more than ever, and many people are seeing a shift in their work styles. However, this sudden transition to remote work also creates news challenges of overcoming difficulties in team communication.
Remote work is increasing rapid – but not without challenges
Due to the Coronavirus epidemic and the subsequent declaration of emergency, remote work is rapidly increasing. According to a survey conducted by ITmedia Inc. in mid-March, 64% of companies are currently implementing remote work, more than three times more than last year. As reported in the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper, some internet service providers have seen an increase in their internet traffic in the afternoons by approximately 60% due to remote work.
While there are many voices welcoming the introduction of remote work, there are some who are confused by the difficulties of team communication due to the lack of face-to-face communication and meetings.

As the effects of the new coronavirus spread around the world and the number of infected people in Japan rises every day, the importance of remote work for businesses is increasing. Previously promoted in the Tokyo metropolitan area as a countermeasure for congestion related to the Tokyo Olympics, the coronavirus situation makes it even more important now. If the number of cases in Tokyo continues to increase, normal business activities based on commuting may be severely restricted.
However, before starting remote work, it is necessary to prepare the right environment for everyone involved. For that reason, we recommend the Tsukaeru cloud solution for quickly and easily setting up a remote work environment at a low cost.

Globalization and the spread of smartphones have greatly changed our lives. As a result, companies have also had to shift their business models to survive. Digital Transformation (DX) is a core concept of transformation that companies need.
What is Digital Transformation (DX)?
There are many misconceptions, but digital transformation means more than just digitizing documents and moving operations online. Put simply, digital transformation means "leveraging the latest technologies that have emerged in recent years (cloud, social, mobile, IoT, AI, etc.) to bring new value to your business." For example, the change in the consumption style of music and movies to the subscription model is a case in point.
The Present Situation of DX in Japanese Companies
As things stand now, many Japanese companies are increasingly aware of the need for digital transformation, but haven’t been taking steps to develop it. According to a report by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (Note 1), one of the main reasons why DX is not progressing in Japan is that "existing systems that have become obsolete are complex and closed, data cannot be utilized, and maintenance alone is a full-time job."
"Data-driven" strategies essential for DX
Digital transformation requires not only using the latest technology, but also analyzing data and leveraging it for business. You could say that the heart of DX is utilizing data, rather than introducing new technologies. Therefore, "how to manage data" and "how to protect data" are the first and foremost things to consider in implementing full-fledged DX. No matter how modern an IT environment you have, if you lose your essential data or can’t use it freely, you won't be able to make a truly meaningful change.
The first step in implementing DX is cloud backup.
Data protection is the cornerstone and foundation of DX. If you really want to succeed in implementing DX in your company, we recommend that you first work on reforming your backup environment. For the efficient, low-cost, and secure backup essential for DX, cloud backup is the way to go. Tusukaeru Cloud Backup from Tsukaeru.net is a popular solution ideal for digital transformation and DR/BCP countermeasures.
Tsukaeru Cloud Backup is EASY! Protect all data, including the operating system, with a setting time of only 5 minutes. Restoration is also smooth.
Tsukaeru Cloud Backup is SAFE! Double encryption keeps your data secure. The highest-level security measures protect your data and your peace of mind.

It is a complete cloud system with no appliances needed and no initial cost, so it is very simple to introduce. A free 30-day trial is also available. If you are interested, please feel free to contact us.

Note 1：DX Report: Overcoming of ‘2025 Digital Cliff’ Involving IT Systems and Full-fledged Development of Efforts for DX – Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry
In response to the spread of the new coronavirus, "telework" is now attracting new attention. Since an increase in telework means a reduced risk of infection, the government has also called on industries to promote telework actively. Until now, telework has had a domestic penetration rate of less than 20% (Note 1), but that number is about to change dramatically.
Epidemics, earthquakes, fires… Now is the time to create a telework-ready environment in case of emergency.
Most people think of telework as something implemented across the board, with everyone working from home all day. Therefore, many companies dismiss it by saying "telework would never work for us." However, the most important thing is to prepare an environment where employees can switch to partial telework immediately in an emergency. That way, when an emergency occurs that makes telework essential, like the new coronavirus, you don’t have to panic, but can make a flexible response like "Let's incorporate telework in this department for one week, starting tomorrow."
Benefits of telework
The benefits of telework are not limited to the ability to hedge risks in case of infectious disease outbreaks and natural disasters. By creating a telework-ready environment, you can expect the following benefits:
・Reduced costs for the company (office space, commuting allowance, etc.)
・Reduced employee commuting time and stress
・Improved work-life balance and productivity
・Improved corporate image, leading to more effective branding and recruitment
・Decrease in turnover due to circumstances such as childcare and elder care
・Increased employee motivation and engagement
Telework Spreads to Large Companies
Telework is also being implemented in large companies symbolic of Japan. At JR East, which has started work-style reforms such as the abolition of core time, approximately 10,000 employees are eligible for telework, equaling about 20% of the total workforce. Nissan Motors has also fully introduced a telework system, and an estimated 2,400 employees have registered for it.
Other examples include Japan Airlines (JAL) which allows about 4,000 people to telework, excluding pilots and cabin attendants. Recruit gives all employees unlimited teleworking days, and Shiseido has approved telework for approximately 14,000 employees excluding beauticians.
Why cloud storage is “practically indispensable” for telework
In order to create an environment where telework can be implemented at any time, it is essential to have the necessary tools. Cloud storage (online storage) tops the list.
Cloud storage is a service that allows employees to share files and access materials easily, from home or on the go, by uploading files and folders to the cloud. With cloud storage in place, teleworkers don't have to send files as email attachments every time, or worry about losing USB memory sticks. Because it is a cloud-based service, capital investment and expensive initial investment are not required, and it can be introduced easily. It is ideal not only for telework but also for everyday use, because it backs files up automatically and makes teamwork more efficient.
The simple and speedy Tsukaeru Filebako
That said, common concerns about cloud storage include: "How do we know that an individual service is secure?" "We use a lot of foreign-made services; can it interface with those?" and "The pricing structure of business plans is complicated, and we’re worried about extra costs." The answer to all these questions is the Tsukaeru Filebako from Tsukaeru.net. It has the following characteristics:
・Familiar, easy-to-use folder-style file server. No need to spend time and effort training employees.
・Simple and easy-to-understand interface developed by Japanese companies. Comprehensive customer support by our dedicated staff.
・Simple, clear monthly or annual rate plans with no hidden costs or additional charges.
・Full security measures such as double encryption of communication and triple backup of data. All data is stored carefully in our own ISO27001 (ISMS) certified data center in Nagano (in operation for 20 years).
There is also a free 14-day trial, so please feel free to contact us at no risk!
In addition, for more than 10 years, Tsukaeru.net has established an environment in which all employees can telework securely anytime, anywhere by combining the Tsukaeru Dokodemo Office, Tsukaeru Filebako, and cloud PBX. This experience and know-how means the Tsukaeru.net telework consulting service is also highly regarded, and for a limited time, we’re offering free consultation (100,000 yen at the regular price)! We look forward to hearing from you.

Note 1: 2019 White Paper on Information and Communications – Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications
Did you know that solutions for backing up Office 365, Microsoft’s classic cloud service, are gaining popularity recently?
Office 365 is a well-known subscription-type service that allows Word, Excel, Exchange, etc.to be used anytime and anywhere via the cloud. It also works with online storage, such as OneDrive, for greater flexibility and productivity. For more and more businesses, it is the preferred solution as part of work style reforms. However, why is backup needed when Office 365 data is in the cloud in the first place? In this article, we will discuss five reasons.
1. Office 365 does not provide support for user errors or problems in local environments.
As Microsoft only provides a platform, it does not take responsibility for data loss due to user errors or problems with customers’ computers or servers. For example, if a file is mistakenly deleted by an employee or a company computer error, the file will automatically be deleted from the Office 365 cloud. It is dangerous to rely solely on the trash function to recover a file as it will only be stored for 30 days in the cloud. After that time, it will be permanently erased and unrecoverable.
2. All Office 365 user data is lost if the account is deleted.
If employees leave a company and delete their Office 365 accounts, all user emails, etc. will be completely lost. In many cases, the email data of former employees can be valuable at a later date. It is possible to keep the account of former employees but that will increase license fees indefinitely, creating an unnecessary cost.
3. Backup is indispensable to protect against cyber attacks, such as ransomware.
If a PC is infected with ransomware and files are maliciously encrypted, those files will be uploaded to the Office 365 cloud. It is possible to restore files up to several previous generations, but there is a limit to the time period and generation that can be restored. It is impossible to restore files to their most current state before infection unless it is noticed immediately.
4. As service failures are surprisingly common, overconfidence is a risk.
Microsoft’s cloud is certainly stable, and there are almost no serious problems on the service side. However, minor service failures often occur, so it is important to not become too overconfident. In fact, a number of companies were affected, including several failures in a row in the fall of last year, creating email system instability. Regular backups are vital to prevent business interruptions even in the event of a service failure.
5. Countermeasures are required for internal threats.
Corporate security threats come from both internal and external sources. External backup of Office 365 data is the most effective way to protect against all threats, such as deliberate file deletion by disgruntled or vindictive employees.
For Office 365 backup, we recommend the low cost and popular Office 365 Protection from Tsukaeru, which can completely protect and backup Office 365 emails, files, and folders quickly and easily. For more information, please visit our Office 365 Protection service page.

2019 saw many changes in Japan. A new emperor ushered in the Reiwa Era, bringing the 30-year Heisei Era to an end. The consumption tax increased to 10%. Looking at changing trends in the cloud market, it was the year of cloud solution adoption among companies. In this article, we will examine the future of the cloud market in 2020 with a focus on the upcoming Olympic Games.
Full-scale in 2020? Cloud adoption by Japanese companies
In Japan, business use of the cloud has been less prolific than in Europe and the United States; however, this tide is likely to change this year. One indication of the adoption of cloud systems began in the central government. At the end of last year, the Japanese government announced a new policy to completely shift core systems used by ministries and agencies to the cloud. While the actual system change is scheduled to begin in the fall of this year, it is likely that this “endorsement” of cloud usage by the government will encourage large companies and local governments to follow suit.
The cloud is key to addressing labor shortage and improving productivity
As labor shortages will continue to be an issue in various industries in 2020, the cloud is attracting attention as a solution. The labor shortage problem in Japan has been increasing in recent years, and with the decreasing birthrate and aging population, dramatic improvement is not expected in the future. As a result, there is a growing need to increase productivity as a way to maintain and grow business – the key to that is the cloud.
By utilizing the cloud, it is now possible to automate and improve the efficiency of conventionally manual tasks or those that require a great deal of time and labor, something especially important for small and medium-sized companies that account for the majority of Japanese economy. According to the 2018 White Paper On Small and Medium Enterprises in Japan, the labor productivity of small and medium enterprises is about 56% in the manufacturing industry, about 64% in the information and communication industry, and about 57% in the specialized and technical services industry as compared to large enterprises.(*1) The cloud is expected to play a major role in overcoming this problem in 2020.
Growing importance of cyber security
As cloud adoption in companies is in full swing, the importance of cyber security has never been greater. In particular, a greater focus on Japan because of the Tokyo Olympics later this year may increase the risk of companies being targeted by cyber attacks, increasing the need for caution. In the past, the Rio Olympics and London Olympics saw a sharp increase in cyber attacks in the host countries. Every company will need to implement more thorough security measures in 2020 than ever before.
