Japanese tech giant Fujitsu has announced plans to set up a research center for data and security in Israel as part of efforts to strengthen its Research and Development (R&D) strategy as well as increase its presence in the country.

The center, which will go operational from April 2023 according to the announcement, highlights Fujitsu’s objectives of meeting the data security and trust requirements of companies and businesses at a time when many people are performing more transactions online.

Fujitsu says the center, to be based in Tel Aviv, will bring together about 10 research experts from Israel, Japan and Europe and their work will be focused on improving security technology for communications networks as part of its global strategy for data and security – a key area in its global R&D strategy.

Research at the center will focus on two main areas, namely developing technology that can ensure and enhance trust for network security, and technologies which can be used for a wide range of real-life situations like autonomous driving, self-checkout, as well as public safety, including anti-attack technologies for object detection AI…………

The company is also planning to develop its IDYX (or “IDentitY eXchange”) technology, which is intended to enable secure distribution of digital identity and attribute information between companies and individuals………………………………. https://www.biometricupdate.com/202211/new-fujitsu-security-research-center-in-israel-to-further-develop-digital-identity-tools?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR0JsxUA-U2OxTaWJA0wn9bVwz6ZrES6Ud3yJbBiyJ7-0pgqbW6TaOodx50_aem_AUNuP6qXKQDr6xEGOrL9tLaha_3Jq5bni6IsXT-5B63IYytKZyPOG_gwYYdcMStOmz7Fcy3mf3NxTz4PKcttQPiC
