In any other country the company would be fined, not Japan.

IT people in Japan suck. They cannot protect anything. Why?

JapanGal: Because J companies don't budget for security or IT, they hire the cheapest of cheap and as long as it works it's fine, forget testing or security.... Japanese internet is 5-10 years behind the rest of the world, just hit up any government website, or the fact Japanese companies don't use URL's in their TV commercials but search terms makes my mind boggle.

@Japangal: Its Information Security not Information Technology...often lumped together but really different departments with different responsibilities.

@gogogo: Japan has one of the best and fastest internet technology in the world and is(almost literally) light years ahead of US and UK. Just because the J-gov isn't up to speed with technology, doesn't mean that the whole country is behind.

In reality its the information security side that is lacking.

@Mirai Hayashi, hahahahahah hahahahahahah!!!!!

come on!! because you have fiber optic in the home do not mean you are advance!!

i know that the network in Japan from NTT to KDDI is run by Cisco System routers and switches and the Mobile cell network are from Nokia, qualcomm, Erikson Remember the US made the Net every internet Tech was born in the US or EU, so please!!

go to any basement of a big corp, and what you find is Cisco or Juniper, you sometime find Fujitsu, but remember that Fujitsu only license everything from SUN Microsystem i didn't know those are Japanese Company.

@The_True

uh...yes it does. What other country besides South Korea offers fiber to home users? Other countries are still on either ADSL or dial up which is 15 year old technology. A modern infrastructure means better throughput and a better development platform for newer technology.

Mobile cell network are from Nokia, qualcomm, Erikson Remember the US made the Net every internet Tech was born in the US or EU, so please!!

You can preach that US/UK were first all day long, but at the end of the day, it doesn't mean squat unless you're using it. Lets face it, US's internet infrastructure needs a lot of upgrading before its considered "world class".

You should also remember that most of the "American" software are developed outside of America, India etc. Hardware is developed in China, Taiwan. Just like many other things, the US invented the Internet but now they are behind many other nations.

I do agree with Mirai, that security is pretty bad with Japanese orgs and applications.
