  "account": "A Reuters survey conducted from October 27 to November 6 revealed that one-third of Japanese firms have been targeted by cyberattacks either on their own systems or those of external service providers this year. The findings prompted companies to increase their spending on cybersecurity. About 10% of respondents reported that cyberattacks disrupted their operations, while 22% said the attacks caused no damage. Just over half of the companies had not been targeted, with the rest unsure. On cybersecurity spending, 3% anticipate a sharp increase, 59% expect a moderate increase, and 22% expect little change. The survey contacted 508 companies, with 214 responding anonymously.",
