CyLogic and CCRC of Keio University Deploy Keio JRAMP Cloud in Japan
Through a new partnership with Keio University Global Research Institute's Cyber Civilization Research Center (CCRC) Project Professor Satoru Tezuka, the Keio JRAMP Cloud is now available to enterprises and government contractors in Japan, providing a demo of the highest level of data protection and compliance.
The new proof of capability project between CyCloud and CCRC demonstrates the ability to deliver secure enterprise cloud services in Japan, which has seen a 35-fold increase in cyber attacks.
Tokyo, Japan and Chevy Chase, Maryland--(Newsfile Corp. - April 9, 2025) - CyLogic, the security-first cloud, today announced a strategic partnership with Keio University Global Research Institute's Cyber Civilization Research Center (CCRC) Project Professor Satoru Tezuka. Through this partnership, CyLogic and CCRC have deployed a proof of capability, the Keio JRAMP Cloud. Through this program, CyLogic's flagship offering CyCloud will be available to CCRC for usage and testing.
'CyLogic and CCRC have joined forces to demonstrate to Japanese enterprises and government that the highest level of data security could be rapidly available in Japan, as demonstrated by the implementation of the Keio JRAMP Cloud,' said Louis Mayberg, CEO of CyLogic. 'We're proud to be working with the Project Professor Satoru Tezuka at CCRC. Together, we are ushering in a new era of data protection and control that was previously not available to businesses or government in Japan.'
Japan has experienced a 35-fold increase in cyber attacks over the past decade. Like many other nations, it has struggled to evolve its cybersecurity and data privacy regulations to keep pace with the proliferation of attacks. The Japanese government is preparing to strengthen data security regulations to bolster its cyber defense capabilities. While Japan works on this new framework, security leaders and researchers are partnering with international cybersecurity experts to offer more secure ways for businesses to protect their most sensitive data.
Project Professor Satoru Tezuka of CCRC is a member of Japan's Data Strategy Task Force of the Digital Government Ministerial Conference and holds advisory positions on many other Japanese government committees related to cybersecurity and critical infrastructure. His research at CCRC focuses on various aspects of Digital Trust. The research will use the Keio JRAMP Cloud as a training and education platform, demonstrating the abilities of a FedRAMP High cloud for secure content collaboration and workflows with its partners. Usage will include enabling the safe sharing of sensitive information with colleagues, efficient management of research project documents, and ensuring that only authorized individuals can access critical data. Additionally, the partnership aims to leverage the Keio JRAMP Cloud to educate industry and government leaders about how the adoption of secure cloud architecture that incorporates FedRAMP High security controls can safeguard valuable data from unexpected events like natural disasters, human error, and cybersecurity threats, minimizing downtime and preventing permanent data loss.
'We chose to collaborate with CyLogic because of their unparalleled expertise with the U.S. FedRAMP process, which Japan urgently needs to emulate through a JRAMP program,' said Project Professor Satoru Tezuka. 'CyLogic's extensive experience providing cloud services and cloud security to large enterprises in Japan, along with their commitment to assisting both the commercial and government sectors in adopting stringent security controls and highly secure cloud services, makes them the ideal partner for our research initiatives in cybersecurity policy, governance, and adoption.'
CyLogic was the first company to take VMware Cloud Foundation into the FedRAMP High-Ready process on its CyCloud platform ( FedRAMP Package ID FR2108731521).
'The world today is in a constant state of cyber conflict, where businesses and government agencies must contend with persistent threats from adversaries targeting sensitive data for financial, political, or strategic gain. Organizations need modern, comprehensive solutions that are highly distributed to safeguard their most valuable asset,' said Chris Grady, CTO at CyLogic. 'With the launch of the Keio JRAMP Cloud proof of capability, Japanese enterprises and government contractors now have access to a validated sovereign cloud solution based on VMware Cloud Foundation and other validated technologies, designed to meet the highest levels of security and compliance. This capability represents a significant step forward in protecting Japan's essential national security infrastructure and supporting its cyber resilience.'
Built to deliver VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) software, Dell hardware, and Equinix data centers, CyCloud combines the ease of use of a public cloud, the control of a private cloud, with the highest levels of security and compliance. With its simple, predictable pricing and cost structure, ease of use, and low latency, CyCloud is changing the concept of cloud from a destination to an operating model by offering Public cloud, Edge cloud, Private cloud, and industrial edge appliances solutions at the highest levels of security and compliance.

KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to WBHT 2025-WBM
NEW YORK, June 09, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA announces the assignment of preliminary ratings to six classes of WBHT 2025-WBM, a CMBS single-borrower securitization. The collateral for the transaction is a $340.0 million non-recourse, first lien mortgage loan that is expected to be co-originated by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and Goldman Sachs Bank USA. The floating rate loan is expected to have a two-year initial term with three 12-month extension options and require monthly interest-only payments. The mortgage loan will be secured by the borrower's leasehold interests in the Waikiki Beach Marriott located in Honolulu, Hawaii. The subject property features 1,307 keys, 10 food & beverage outlets, 24,572 sf of indoor meeting and ballroom space, 54,287 sf of retail space, two outdoor pools, a full-service spa, a fitness facility, game room, and a business center. The hotel was constructed between 1971 and 1979. Since 2017, the sponsor has invested approximately $118.4 million ($90,572 per key) on capital improvements at the property. The most recent comprehensive renovation was largely completed in 2022 when the sponsor spent $95.2 million ($72,863 per key) to renovate all guestrooms, the third floor terrace and pool deck as well as construct the Luana Lounge to cater to Japanese tour groups. For the TTM 3/2025 period, the subject property achieved an occupancy of 83.6% with an ADR of $262.96, resulting in a RevPAR of $219.87. As of the TTM 3/2025 period, the property achieved occupancy, ADR and RevPAR penetration rates of 98.0%, 102.6% and 100.5%, respectively. KBRA's analysis of the transaction included a detailed evaluation of the property's cash flows using our North American CMBS Property Evaluation Methodology, and the application of our North American CMBS Single Borrower & Large Loan Rating Methodology. In addition, KBRA also relied on its Global Structured Finance Counterparty Methodology for assessing counterparty risk in this transaction, and its ESG Global Rating Methodology, to the extent deemed applicable. The results of our analysis yielded a KBRA net cash flow (KNCF) for the subject of approximately $28.8 million, which is 22.3% below the issuer's NCF, and a KBRA value of approximately $288.4 million, which is 59.3% below the appraiser's as-is value. The resulting in-trust KBRA Loan to Value (KLTV) is 117.9%. In our analysis of the transaction, we also reviewed and considered third party engineering, environmental, and appraisal reports, the results of our site inspection of the property, and legal documentation review.

Casablanca's First-Ever Store Is a Colorful Parisian Boutique
Parisian luxury labelCasablancahas opened its inaugural physical boutique with the opening of its colorful store on 62 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. NeighboringComme des GarçonsandHermès, the 2018-born label inaugurates its public-facing presence in the historic fashion capital, representing a new generation of Gen Z-focused luxury labels. Cast in a palette of blue, red, and green, he 5,000 sq ft store spans three levels and centers on a deconstructed tennis court inspired by architectCarlos Scarpa, according toWWD. Much like the eclectic influences of the label's North African heritage, the design draws from varied Japanese and Greek aesthetics, as well as the sport of tennis. The sleek space features Carrara marble mosaic floors, a futuristic illuminated ceiling, velvet finishes, and high-gloss lacquered wood applications. The lower floor is blanketed by a plush green carpet that extends to the walls, where transparent product displays reside, evocative of the clean modernism recently popularized by Apple TV'sSeverance. Elsewhere, arched niches and wall moldings are placed throughout the perimeter, rooting the space back in heritage with a mixture of traditional Parisian design elements. Following the opening of its inaugural Paris boutique, Casablanca will ready its Beverly Hills store, slated to open in that the brand aims to open more stores in cities including New York, Miami, London, Milan, and Dubai. See the gallery above for a closer look at the new space.
