Japan's Information-Technology, Promotion Agency (IPA) has a policy of collecting information from informers and, either by itself, or through JPCERT/CC, passes that information onto the relevant parties. IPA handles website vulnerabilities and JPCERT/CC handles software vulnerabilities. According to IPA, the process is in alignment with ISO/IEC 29147:2014 (which as noted with regards to the US FDA's regulations, was updated in 2018). In 2024, Japan's "Standards for Handling Vulnerability-related Information of Software Products and Others" were partially amended to enhance the coordination and communication processes among stakeholders, including finders, software developers, and website operators, thereby improving the overall management and disclosure of vulnerability-related information.
