ISMAP registration and APPI alignment for Japanese workloads.

ISMAP is the Japanese government cloud security assessment regime. The Act on Protection of Personal Information (APPI) governs personal data handling.

About the framework

What is Japan ISMAP & APPI?

Cloud service providers selling into the Japanese central government require ISMAP registration. APPI applies to any business handling personal information of Japanese residents — including cross-border data transfers.

Who it applies to

Japanese government ministries and agencies, financial institutions under FSA guidance, healthcare providers, large enterprises with cross-border data flows, and any global vendor selling cloud services to Japanese government.
