What is the reason a long-established painting company in Atsugi City chose "AppGuard" for ransomware countermeasures!?

In 1970, we spoke with President Oguchi of Ivy Reform Co., Ltd., a long-established painting company in Atsugi City! Aisel: Can you tell us how you became interested in AppGuard? President Oguchi: It started with a newspaper article. The article explained that traditional virus protection, which relies on past information, is reaching its limits. Until then, I had been using pre-installed antivirus software on my PC or purchasing packaged antivirus software from retail stores, but this made me feel a sense of crisis. AppGuard was mentioned as an effective measure that can protect PCs from unknown viruses, so I gathered information online, contacted the manufacturer, and became convinced that it was safe to implement. Aisel: Are there any points you particularly like? President Oguchi: The key point is that it "prevents viruses from activating even if they enter the PC." No matter how much employee training we do, the risk of inadvertently launching cleverly disguised malicious software cannot be eliminated. AppGuard helps prevent accidents caused by such human errors. Aisel: Thank you!

What is required in future recruitment activities is not the traditional method of "simply posting job advertisements and waiting for applications." What is urgently needed now is "proactive recruitment," which involves partnering with companies as their "best No. 2" to consistently promote everything from the planning of recruitment strategies to the establishment of systems that yield results.
