is moderate — few non-Japanese vendors target [[id:b852ec69-0fc2-435c-ae1e-6b83e49b3ca3][APPI]] specifically, and the 2022
amendments added requirements that created compliance gaps.
** ISMAP (Government Information System Security Management and Assessment Program)
Japan's government cloud security program — analogous to [[id:e6993701-3c67-49bf-82f3-06907572cbf3][FedRAMP]]. Cloud services
used by Japanese government agencies must be ISMAP-authorized. Managed by the
Digital Agency and the Information-technology Promotion Agency (IPA).
Who must comply: Cloud service providers selling to Japanese national and local
government agencies.
Why it matters: Like FedRAMP, ISMAP is a procurement gate. Authorization is
time-consuming and expensive. A [[id:3c6b0449-a8fb-5b89-b82a-34efb21ef5b5][compute marketplace]] provider with ISMAP
authorization has exclusive access to the Japanese government market. First-mover
advantage is significant — as of 2025, fewer than 100 services are ISMAP-registered.
