Fujitsu launches generative AI service that analyzes source code and automatically generates design documents
Fujitsu announced the launch of Fujitsu Application Transform powered by Fujitsu Kozuchi, a generative AI service that analyzes source code and automatically generates design documents, contributing to a reduction in work time of approximately 97%. Fujitsu will begin offering Fujitsu Application Transform powered by Fujitsu Kozuchi as a SaaS in Japan starting March 30, 2026. This service supports the modernization of companies and organizations by leveraging Fujitsu’s extensive system development expertise, proprietary technology, and generative AI to analyze COBOL and other source codes within existing legacy systems, automatically generating design documents to understand the system’s content.
Building on the achievements of its predecessor, a software analysis and visualization service launched in February 2025, this new offering standardizes analysis technology and design document generation know-how. In this service, Fujitsu proprietary technology leverages code analysis techniques on remaining design information and existing programs and manages RAG using Fujitsu Knowledge Graph–Enhanced RAG for Software Engineering. By linking large volumes of source code, it prevents omissions and hallucinations, and automatically generates highly accurate, easy-to-read design documentation.
This service reduces the time-consuming process of understanding programming languages and generating design documents, which previously required extensive human effort, by approximately 97%, even without expert knowledge. Furthermore, compared to analysis solely by general generative AI, Fujitsu’s proprietary technology generates consistent design information without omissions from existing system source code, even for complex COBOL language. This has improved comprehensiveness by 95%. These accuracy enhancements have also led to a 60% improvement in the readability of design documents compared to conventional methods, confirming the generation of high-quality design documents.
Moving forward, Fujitsu plans to begin offering support services for the introduction of this service. Additionally, beyond automatic design document generation, Fujitsu plans to sequentially introduce features for rebuilding existing source code for future use, automatically rewriting source code, and supporting operation and maintenance, starting in fiscal year 2026. Through this service, Fujitsu aims to generate high-quality design documents, enabling a clear understanding of current system specifications and characteristics, and strongly supporting the formulation and implementation of system modernization and migration strategies.
Mr. Toshihiro Horiuchi, Managing Executive Officer, SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. comments, “We see this announcement as an initiative that realistically advances the modernization of our legacy systems by combining Fujitsu’s deep system development expertise built up over many years with generative AI. From fiscal year 2025, we have been conducting joint verification with Fujitsu on reverse engineering design documentation for legacy languages, including COBOL, and through this collaboration we have come to recognize the significant potential of this technology. Going forward, we hope to continue working closely with Fujitsu to achieve more practical and effective modernization.”

India Set to Ban Sale of CCTVs of Some Prominent Chinese Brands from April 1, 2026
India is set to block some Chinese CCTV giants from selling internet-connected cameras from April 1, 2026, as new STQC certification rules make approval mandatory.
India is reportedly preparing to bar Chinese video surveillance giants from selling internet-connected CCTV cameras and related hardware from April 1, when the new certification rules under the Standardization Testing and Quality Certification (STQC) rule will take effect, making approval mandatory before CCTV products can be sold in India. Do note that these rules apply to all brands offering CCTV cameras and video surveillance products in India. Authorities worry about vulnerabilities and possible unauthorized remote access in imported devices.
This move is said to be part of a broader government push to tighten security standards for connected devices. Authorities are reportedly refusing to grant certification to products from these firms, as well as any devices using Chinese-origin chipsets. Without STQC clearance, such products are effectively barred from the Indian market.
The government is blocking the sale of many Chinese internet-connected CCTV cameras by denying them mandatory certification. The ban will bring in a significant blow to Chinese brands, which once dominated the sector in the country. The Chinese brands account for roughly a third of all CCTV sales in the country. However, the landscape has shifted rapidly as domestic manufacturers have stepped in to fill the void.
Recently, Indian brands like CP Plus, Qubo, Matrix, and Sparsh have expanded aggressively. These brands have reworked their supply chains to rely on non-Chinese components, favoring Taiwanese chipsets, and have localized their firmware. According to sources, Indian players now control over 70% of the market, while the premium segment remains the stronghold of multinationals. Indian CCTV makers, obviously and for business reasons, are likely to welcome the government move.
These rules for CCTV cameras stem from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology’s (MeitY) Essential Requirements (ER) norms introduced in April 2024. The rules require manufacturers to disclose the country of origin of key components, such as the System-on-Chip (SoC), and ensure devices are tested for vulnerabilities that could allow unauthorized remote access.
Companies were given a two-year transition window to comply. So far, more than 500 CCTV models have been certified under the new regime.

World Backup Day 2026 – Industry Leaders Stress Data Resilience as a Business Survival Imperative
On World Backup Day 2026, NCN highlights industry insights on rising cyber threats, stressing strong backup, recovery, and data resilience as essential for business continuity and trust.
Dr. Sanjay Katkar, Joint Managing Director, Quick Heal Technologies Limited
“World Backup Day arrives as a reminder that in a threat landscape recording 265.52 million detections in a single year, data recovery is not a luxury. It has become a survival imperative. Our Cybersecurity Maturity Survey shows that, even though many organisations report having backups in place, too few regularly test restores or design for ransomware scenarios, leaving backup and recovery as one of the most dangerous gaps in enterprise resilience. Ransomware campaigns like Weaxor and Xelera have already shown why: encryption-based attacks don’t just disrupt operations; they permanently destroy irreplaceable data. At the same time, the DPDP Act is raising expectations around how responsibly personal data is governed, protected, and restored after an incident, making backup a mandatory security safeguard for any organization handling personal data.
It is important to understand that while backups themselves are not a compliance silver bullet, it doesn’t diminish their importance. Rather than treating backup purely as a technical task, Indian businesses now need to see it as part of broader data stewardship, where availability, integrity, and privacy all matter together. At Seqrite, our advanced solutions, including services such as Ransomware Recovery as a Service that sit on top of customers’ existing backup strategies, are built to ensure organisations can recover rapidly, maintain data integrity, and strengthen trust in how they handle data in a DPDP-aligned India.”
Mr. Prakash Ravindran, CEO & Director, InstiFi
“World Backup Day is a reminder that in a digital payments ecosystem, resilience is as critical as security. As financial transactions become real-time and data-intensive, the ability to securely back up and rapidly recover information is crucial for maintaining business continuity and user trust. Data loss, whether caused by cyber incidents, system failures, or human error, can disrupt operations and impact confidence in digital platforms. We view backup as a core component of a broader cyber resilience strategy, ensuring that merchants and users can rely on uninterrupted, secure financial experiences while facing evolving threats. As digital adoption accelerates, organisations that prioritise robust backup and recovery capabilities will be better positioned to safeguard trust, ensure compliance, and sustain long-term growth in a high-stakes digital economy.”

eScan Enterprise EDR Wins AV-TEST Award 2025 for Best Advanced Protection Against Ransomware and Infostealers
eScan (MicroWorld Technologies Inc.), a global cybersecurity company, has announced that itsEnterprise EDR solution has been honoured with theAV-TEST Award 2025 forBest Advanced Protection in theCorporate Users category. This recognition highlights the solution’s consistently superior defense against ransomware and infostealer attacks throughout the year, reinforcing eScan’s commitment to delivering robust, enterprise-grade cybersecurity.
The AV-TEST Institute, an independent German cybersecurity testing laboratory with over 20 years of rigorous product evaluation, presented just 25 awards to 12 manufacturers worldwide this year, marking the 15th edition of these prestigious honours. eScan Enterprise EDR’s recognition places it among an elite group of security solutions that demonstrated exceptional performance in Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) testing – the most demanding evaluation category in enterprise cybersecurity.
What Makes This Award Significant
Unlike basic malware detection tests, AV-TEST’s ATP evaluations simulate real-world attack scenarios using the latest techniques deployed by ransomware gangs and infostealer operations. Each ATP test comprises 10 distinct real-life scenarios where security products must not only detect threats but also demonstrate effective multi-layered defense mechanisms that prevent attackers from achieving their objectives even after initial compromise.
“The awards in the category of Best Advanced Protection for corporate users are particularly coveted, as they recognize security products for the difficult battle against ransomware and infostealers,” said Mr. Erik Heyland, Head of Testing Labs at AV-TEST. “After all, these classes of malware have been considered the biggest threats in IT security for years. We are therefore delighted to be able to present MicroWorld and its product eScan Enterprise EDR with the Best Advanced Protection 2025 Award for Corporate Users.”
The distinction is particularly noteworthy: only two solutions earned Best Advanced Protection Awards among all tested corporate security products in 2025, with eScan Enterprise EDR achieving top recognition. While global vendors including CrowdStrike, Sophos, and Trend Micro achieved perfect 35-point scores in individual ATP tests throughout the year, eScan’s award recognizes consistent excellence across the entire 2025 testing cycle – a significantly more stringent standard than single-test performance.
Comprehensive Defense Architecture Sets eScan Apart
Unlike pure EDR solutions such as CrowdStrike Falcon that rely primarily on endpoint sensors forwarding behavioural data to cloud servers for analysis, eScan Enterprise EDR integrates endpoint protection (EPP), network security, device control, and behavioural analysis into a comprehensive unified platform. This architectural difference proved decisive in maintaining perfect ATP scores consistently throughout 2025’s rigorous testing regime.
The solution demonstrated exceptional capability in detecting and neutralizing sophisticated attack chains, preventing lateral movement, blocking data exfiltration, and maintaining system integrity under sustained assault from advanced persistent threats – all while maintaining top scores across Protection, Performance, and Usability categories, a prerequisite for ATP award consideration.
Defending Against the Threats That Matter Most
The award arrives as organizations globally face unprecedented ransomware pressure. India alone experienced a 55% increase in ransomware incidents during 2024, with attacks targeting critical infrastructure including AIIMS Delhi, Jaguar Land Rover’s production facilities, and numerous government organizations. Globally, ransomware gangs demanded an average of Rs. 4.5 crores ($464,000) from educational institutions in 2025, with total stolen data exceeding 241 terabytes across all sectors.
“For 25 years, we’ve built eScan to solve actual problems facing Indian and global organizations,” said Mr. Govind Rammurthy, CEO & Managing Director, eScan. “This AV-TEST recognition validates what our customers already know: when ransomware operators spend days inside your network hunting backups before deploying encryption, when infostealers silently harvest credentials for weeks, you need defense mechanisms that work at every stage of the attack – not just initial detection. That’s exactly what eScan Enterprise EDR delivers.”
eScan’s ATP performance is particularly relevant given recent high-profile breaches. The March 2025 tj-actions GitHub compromise exposed CI/CD secrets across 23,000 repositories. The Mercedes-Benz GitHub token leak granted unrestricted access to complete source code repositories. Operation Sindoor in May 2025 launched 200,000 coordinated attacks on India’s power grid infrastructure. Each incident demonstrated attackers’ sophistication in bypassing basic security controls – precisely the scenarios ATP testing evaluates.
Proven Performance Where It Counts
eScan Enterprise EDR’s award-winning capabilities extend beyond laboratory testing into real-world deployment. The solution currently protects critical infrastructure across multiple large and critical Government and Private sector organizations, maintaining operational security under continuous threat from nation-state actors and sophisticated criminal organizations.
The solution’s comprehensive approach includes behavioural analysis that detects never-before-seen malware variants, process monitoring that identifies credential theft attempts, network traffic analysis that spots command-and-control communications, and automated response capabilities that contain threats before they propagate. This multi-layered architecture – validated through AV-TEST’s rigorous ATP scenarios – provides the defense-in-depth required for modern enterprise environments where pure endpoint monitoring proves insufficient against sophisticated attack chains.
The AV-TEST Award joins eScan’s portfolio of international certifications and recognitions, reinforcing the company’s position as India’s leading cybersecurity solutions provider with enterprise-grade capabilities validated by independent third-party testing. The award certificate and detailed ATP test results are available on the AV-TEST Institute website.
For organizations evaluating endpoint security solutions, the AV-TEST Award provides independent verification that eScan Enterprise EDR delivers measurable, tested protection against the most dangerous threats in contemporary cybersecurity – ransomware and infostealers that have caused billions in damages globally and show no signs of diminishing.
