TOKYO, JAPAN - NTT Communications Corporation (NTT Com) announced today that it will launch on November 1 the Global Workplace Security Training Service, a solution to educate overseas employees of multinational corporations to raise awareness of IT security requirements in the workplace.

Under the service, NTT Com plans and executes seminars, measures the results and advises multinationals on how to strengthen awareness of IT security among their employees.

The service initially will be offered in the People’s Republic of China, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore and Vietnam. Instruction can be provided in Chinese, Thai, Indonesian, English or Japanese.
