Our paper submitted to the IPSJ JIP has been published and is now available online. This study investigates the actual instances of fraudulent transfers in online banking services provided by an existing Japanese bank. Furthermore, we propose and evaluate detection methods for such activities. We believe that this research, targeting real-world services, is of significant value. Congratulations, Asomura-san!

Our paper submitted to Journal of Information Processing has been accepted for publication! In this study, we employed bidirectional encoder representations from transformers to assess 1,298 privacy and 139 security policies of Japanese companies. Results indicated over 90% covered user rights and security well, but lacked in data retention details. Despite recent law changes, many policies remain insufficiently updated. Congratulations, Mori-san!
