Policy and Basic Concept

While the use of IT and digital technology is advancing, cyber attacks are becoming more sophisticated and complex year by year, increasing the possibility of shutdowns and other disruptions to business activities such as pharmaceutical research and development, manufacturing, and sales. ¾«¶«Ó°Òµpossesses a great deal of important information, including the personal information of patients and the people in the daily living domain, as well as undisclosed management information. Should a data breach result in a leak of sensitive information, it would result in the instant loss of public trust. Moreover, leaks of unreleased structural formulas for projects in the drug discovery phase would have a negative impact on the value of our intellectual property rights. In the event that such information security risks become apparent, the loss of credibility or competitive advantage could have a major impact on business results. However, we recognize that the use of digital technology in building hhc eco (hhc Concept + eco-system) is becoming increasingly important in order to realize the social good that we advocate under our management concept.

We regard information security as an important issue (materiality), and will create opportunities by effectively utilizing information while ensuring its security, as well as fulfilling our social responsibility and providing value to society.
