The Arasaka Tower dominates the Tokyo skyline and is easily recognizable, not from the shape or size, but for the giant backlit Arasaka Logo at the top. The lobby interior decorations has a tasteful blend of modern and contemporary Japanese artwork and sculpture.

This is a highly secretive installation where the five customized supercomputers containing the huge Arasaka database (thousands of MU) are located.

The most noteworthy Arasaka R&D facilities can also be found in China and Kazakhstan, as well as the southern continent of Antarctica. Smaller R&D facilities are also located in South America, North America, Europe, Africa, and Serbia.

Hokkaido Training Camp
Located in the Northern island of Japan in the cold wilderness of the forested mountains of central Hokkaido is Arasaka's main troop training facility. There on a wide expanse of inhospitable land, several thousand potential guards, soldiers and agents go through tough courses in combat, security techniques, survival, infiltration, counter infiltration, espionage and counter espionage.

Benkai Island Training Facility
The Arasaka Benkei Island Training Facility is located on a small tropical island somewhere in the vicinity of Indonesia. Its exact location is kept a secret, for although it's used to train very few people at a time, it's very important to the corporation's covert operations. Because of this secrecy, access to Benkei Island is highly restricted. People and supplies are brought to the island by submarine.

Training Facilities
Arasaka maintains other, more specialized training facilities in several areas around the world. The four month courses in specialized combat and security techniques are given at these schools. The Maritime Security and Combat school is in Yokohama, the Jungle Operations School is in Brazil, the Winter Operations Camp is in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, the Airport Security School is located near Narita Airport in Narita City, Chiba Prefecture, and the fledgling Space Operations School is at Crystal Palace, where it is run under strict watch by the ESA. Most Arasaka Towers maintain basic training facilities in or near their home cities, but those agents and troops who wish to advance within the company eventually ship out to the secretive Hokkaido camp.

This impregnable fortress was built in the style of feudal Japan and acts as a headquarters for Saburo Arasaka and his family. The twenty acres is divided up by the main house, a gymnasium, Shinto shrine, a cherry grove garden and an Osprey landing pad. The facility was commanded by Shintaro Takayama, a close friend and loyal ally of Arasaka, and employs thirty live-in staff, all trained as both servants of the house and security guards. Only the most loyal, highly trusted and distinguished staff are placed here at the compound.

Arasaka Estate
The Arasaka Estate is a Mansion located in North Oak, Night City. The estate was constructed for the purpose of housing the Arasaka family while visiting the Arasaka Tower within the city.

Arasaka and the Net
Arasaka is, by nature of its information base, heavily tied into the Net. All Arasaka offices and installations around the world communicate through the Net, and there is always a large amount of activity centered out of the corporation's data processing, storage and control centers. Arasaka also has some of the tightest Net security to be found anywhere in the world. The corporation is well known among netrunners for its liberal use of black ICE, much of which is developed in-house. Also, Arasaka uses more of its own netrunners for security purposes than almost any other corporation. All of this makes penetrating Arasaka computer systems a formidable task indeed.

Of special note is the security surrounding the northern Honshu R&D facility's database. The legend among netrunners is that the security programs and intrusion countermeasures on that particular subgrid have claimed the lives of more netrunners than any other single installation. It is not known if anyone has ever penetrated to the data core without authorization.
