HENNGE K.K. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and CEO: Kazuhiro Ogura) announces that its cloud security service “HENNGE One,” which mitigates security risks associated with SaaS usage and promotes technology adoption, now supports single sign-on to “Skillnote Skills Management System,” a skill management tool for manufacturers provided by Skillnote Corporation (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Takafumi Yamakawa).
In the manufacturing industry, the pressing challenges of labor shortages and declining technology transfer, driven by an aging population, have made it critical to visualize employee skills and implement structured personnel development programs. Designed specifically for manufacturers, the Skillnote Skills Management System is a cloud-based solution focused on human resource development and skill oversight. The platform facilitates strategic talent management and staffing by providing a centralized, transparent view of critical employee data, including professional qualifications, training records, and individual skill sets.
The integration of HENNGE One and Skillnote Skills Management System enables HENNGE One users to use a single sign-on to Skillnote Skills Management System. They no longer have to manage complicated multiple IDs and passwords. Furthermore, HENNGE One’s access control features, such as IP Control and multi-factor authentication like device certificate, contribute to safer usage of Skillnote Skills Management System, reducing the risks of unauthorized access.
HENNGE will expand the range of SaaS that integrates with HENNGE One to support companies with IT applications and foster innovation.
