NTT Launches Scalable, Cloud-Native Managed Detection and Response Security Service

New security analytics offering integrates threat intelligence with correlated data from various sources across the enterprise, providing threat visibility, proactive hunting, and threat response

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 30 March 2023 – NTT Ltd., a leading global IT infrastructure and services company, today announced the launch of its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) security service to help companies achieve business performance objectives through improved cyber resilience. The cloud-native, analytics-driven offering combines human and machine expertise with leading technologies and threat intelligence to reduce the mean time to detect and respond to cyber-attacks.

The MDR service is built on Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft’s leading next-gen security information and event management (SIEM) platform, powered by AI, automation, and threat intelligence. Sentinel enables organizations to collect data at scale across all users, devices, apps, and infrastructure, both on-prem and in multicloud environments.

Using analytics, machine learning, and threat intelligence, the service hunts for suspicious activities and minimizes false positives. With built-in orchestration and automation of common tasks, enterprises can respond to incidents rapidly and remotely isolate threats.

This latest offering represents another step forward in NTT and Microsoft’s multi-year Strategic Alliance Agreement (SCA) signed in 2020. Since then, the two companies have collaborated to build advanced solutions in public, private and edge cloud, data & AI, digital & app innovation, modern workplace, and now most recently in security.

With over 25 years of Microsoft experience, including 5000+ Microsoft engineers, and more than 10,000 Microsoft certifications, NTT provides an advanced combination of application and systems integration, advisory and managed cloud, and security services that are built using Microsoft platforms and can be delivered globally.

“Organizations are typically utilizing a patchwork of security technologies that lack alignment,” said Charlie Li, Senior Executive Vice President: Managed Cloud and Infrastructure Services, NTT Ltd. “This disjointed approach has left businesses often unable to detect hard-to-find threats and lacking the necessary agility to mitigate them. Many are simply adding more security layers, increasing complexity, and generating even more logs and alerts that go untreated.”

“NTT’s MDR service helps organizations stay ahead of attackers and has a direct impact on workforce productivity and customer satisfaction through real-time and long-term threat correlation, advanced analytics, and continuous monitoring of digital transactions. It delivers a strong cyber-resilience posture, directly impacting an organization’s operational, financial, and resource resilience,” he added.

“Our research indicates that IT security professionals are in high demand, largely driven by more threats that have sprouted with the expansion of today’s hybrid workforce and the magnitude of the increased volume of digital transactions impacting businesses,” said Craig Robinson, Research VP, International Data Corporation (IDC). “MDR services are greatly assisting organizations in taking a pro-active stance to protect all forms of digital transactions and providing those organizations with high-impact, real-time, advanced analytics and professionals 24X7X365.”

“We’re extremely pleased to expand on our existing strategic relationship with NTT through the launch of the new MDR service, based on Microsoft Sentinel, to further help protect and support our joint customers,” said Csaba Deme, General Manager, Global Security Sales at Microsoft.

NTT is well-positioned to enhance its strategic partnership with Microsoft, having earned the esteemed Microsoft Azure Expert Managed Services Provider status, as well as 8 Specializations. NTT is a member of the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA) and boasts a strong legacy with over 20 Microsoft Partner Awards, including the prestigious Partner of the Year.

The global managed detection and response market size is predicted to increase from $2.6B in 2022 to $5.6B by 2027. Some of the factors that are driving market growth include shortage of skilled cyber security professionals and budget constraints, government regulations, and strict compliance for adoption of MDR services.

NTT’s MDR base service includes service tiers and deployment options, as well as support for add-ons that provide additional capabilities to expand detection capabilities and response actions. Current add-ons are MDR for Endpoint and Security Device Management (SecDM) for MDR, for Security Devices and Services.

Hang Lung Properties and LVMH Group Launch Common Charter: 20 Actions to Accelerate Sustainability Progress in 2023

HONG KONG, SHANGHAI AND PARIS – Media OutReach – 30 March 2023 – Hang Lung Properties (SEHK stock code: 00101) (“Hang Lung”) and Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton (“LVMH”) (collectively hereafter, “the Groups”) are delighted to announce that the Groups have formulated an ambitious agenda for sustainability action together entitled Common Charter: Joining Forces to Accelerate Change (“Charter”), which outlines a set of 20 innovative actions they will implement in 2023 to accelerate sustainability progress. The Charter is the next important step for the first-of-its-kind sustainability partnership agreement (“Agreement”) entered into by the Groups in October 2022. It follows their inaugural Real Estate & Climate Forum (“Forum”) held in November 2022, which convened hundreds of people and generated more than 200 ideas.

Under the Charter, the Groups will pursue 20 concrete actions organized under the following four pillars:

    1. Climate Resilience, including sharing energy data, turning off lights at night, encouraging energy innovation through awards, and pursuing renewable energy;
    2. Resource Management, including a mandatory carbon footprint analysis, a shared database of low carbon materials, auditing waste streams, and innovative projects in recycling and reuse, water management, and biodiversity;
    3. People and Wellbeing, including air quality and acoustics projects, development of a shared learning agenda, and initiatives to enhance community wellbeing; and
    4. Sustainability Governance, including the use of digital platforms to improve environmental governance, and sharing of strategies for sustainable procurement.

To speed progress, leverage expertise and strengthen impact under the Charter, the Groups are partnering with a number of external organizations, including: Bluerisk on water management; CLP on renewable energy; GIGA (RESET) on carbon footprint assessment and low carbon materials; the Institute of Public and Environmental Affairs (IPE) on environmental governance; Schneider Electric on energy management; and TRASHAUS on waste audits and recycling. In addition, they are developing research projects on key challenges through the Urban Land Institute, and through Hang Lung’s association with the Hang Lung Center for Real Estate at Tsinghua University.

Mr. Adriel Chan, Hang Lung Properties Vice Chair, and Chair of its Sustainability Steering Committee, said: “Hang Lung and LVMH have already covered much ground in the five months since entering our pioneering sustainability partnership. Now, we aim to design and shape even more innovative sustainability solutions together through the 20 actions that we will implement in 2023, as detailed in the Charter. We have been able to move so quickly together because of the trust between the two Groups, our embrace of innovation and ‘learning by doing’, and our commitment to accelerating positive impacts in sustainability. In early 2024, we will report back on how we did in all 20 action areas, as well as add new ideas for even greater impact.”

“This partnership will be a model around the world, of how to create new partnerships between landlords and tenants. We need to accelerate improvements to the stores’ environmental footprint. Synergies such as this one are key to addressing sustainability challenges. The Charter is a new phase in our partnership, one of action, through our 20 concrete measures. With the support of a new kind of changemaker – our great partners such as Bluerisk, CLP, GIGA (RESET), Schneider, and TRASHAUS – the Real Estate and Climate Forum established by the Groups is really a portfolio of solutions,” said Ms. Helene Valade, LVMH Group Environment Development Director.

Some of the Charter actions have already begun. For example, the Groups are working with TRASHAUS on a waste audit covering the demolition process of a store renovation in Hang Lung’s Plaza 66 in Shanghai. The audit is collecting data on wood, metal and mixed renovation waste, and investigating waste transit and recycling facilities, in order to identify ways to reduce waste and increase circularity. The Groups will then look to apply insights gained to other tenant renovations.

In a spirit of transparency and to encourage greater innovation and collaboration among stakeholders, the Groups are making the Charter public in its entirety. It is available for download in both English and simplified Chinese on their shared Forum website. Updated versions of the Charter, reflecting learnings, progress achieved – including quantifiable results from actions undertaken in 2023 – and new ambitions, will be released in 2024 and 2025.

Spanning Hang Lung’s portfolio of properties across seven cities in mainland China, the Agreement engages 26 LVMH brands occupying over 90 retail spaces with a lettable floor area in excess of 27,000 sq. m. With plans to engage the employees and suppliers of both Groups, the partnership will run to the end of 2025, and is expected to be renewed thereafter.

First Hydrogen Canadian Plans Supported by New Canadian Green Economy Budget

Vancouver, British Columbia – Newsfile Corp. – March 30, 2023 – First Hydrogen Corp. (TSXV: FHYD) (OTC Pink: FHYDF) (FSE: FIT) (“FIRST HYDROGEN” or the “Company“) applauds the recently announced Canadian Federal budget and its strong support for clean economy investments. The 2023 Canadian budget contains several new initiatives focused on fighting climate change, helping to retool the Canadian economy and supporting the creation of the net-zero industries of tomorrow. The new federal initiatives include a set of clear and predictable investment tax credits, low-cost strategic financing, and targeted investments and programming, where necessary to respond to the unique needs of sectors or projects of national economic significance.

The Federal programs supporting First Hydrogen include Investment Tax Credits for Clean Hydrogen ($17.7 billion) and Zero Emission Technology Manufacturing ($11.1 billion) as well as lower tax rates for Zero Emission Technology Manufactures ($1.3 billion). The Federal incentives are in addition to incentive programs offered by the Province of Quebec, which the Company has picked for its first green hydrogen eco-system. Development sites for the local production of green hydrogen and the assembly of First Hydrogen’s zero-emission commercial vehicles are being assessed in the City of Shawinigan.

First Hydrogen offers a zero-emission solution via producing and supplying green hydrogen, refueling stations and next-generation hydrogen-powered fuel-cell light to medium commercial vehicles. The Company’s two hydrogen demonstrator vans are moving into commercial service trails in the UK, as well as additional green hydrogen production sites are being evaluated in the UK, the United States and Manitoba.

Balraj Mann, CEO of First Hydrogen, says: “The new policy support will help ensure a clean Canadian economy that delivers prosperity, jobs, and more vibrant communities across Canada. It should also boost investor confidence for the Canadian cleantech sector with critical investments in manufacturing and infrastructure.”

Rob Campbell, Director and CEO of First Hydrogen Energy, comments: “The New Canadian policies are very timely given our Canadian project plans for both green hydrogen and zero emission vehicles in Canada. We welcome the support as it should keep Canada at pace with the US market and help accelerate decarbonization of the Canadian economy.”
