Japan Aims For 50,000 Cyber Experts By 2030

The Japanese government aims for 50,000 cybersecurity experts by 2030. This initiative addresses a pressing personnel shortage. It also enhances national resilience against cyber threats. As of April 2025, Japan had 24,000 Registered Information Security Specialist (RISS) holders. RISS is a national cybersecurity license established in 2016. These professionals are vital for implementing security measures. The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) plans to double RISS holders. This involves better training and promoting cybersecurity education.

Obtaining RISS certification requires a financial commitment.

License holders pay over ¥100,000 every three years for renewal. An expert panel proposed exemptions from some renewal courses. This change is planned from fiscal year 2026. It acknowledges the burden on cybersecurity professionals. Japan’s cybersecurity market is experiencing significant growth. The market was estimated at USD 8.65 billion in 2024. Projections indicate a 13.5% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2025 to 2030. Increased government investment drives this expansion.

Japan’s cybersecurity strategy includes international collaborations. A notable partnership is with the European Union. The third EU-Japan Digital Partnership Council met on May 12, 2025. Both parties committed to enhancing cybersecurity cooperation. This includes information sharing and joint training initiatives. They also aim to develop common standards. Collaborative research in AI, 5G/6G, and quantum computing was highlighted.

Data governance and trusted data flow were also emphasized.

Japan’s strategy has several key objectives for 2030. Expanding the cybersecurity workforce is a primary goal. Integrating advanced technologies like AI is also crucial. This will improve threat detection and response capabilities. Strengthening international partnerships remains a key focus. Policy reforms will support cybersecurity professionals. Japan’s proactive approach aims to accelerate national growth. Investment in human capital and global collaboration are vital. This will create a secure and resilient digital environment.
