Need to unify state management focal points on cybersecurity

Quang Cường |

The drafting agency believes that it is necessary to unify state management focal points on cybersecurity for the following reasons:

Improving efficiency in management and supervision

Ensure unity and synchronization: When there is only one management unit, state agencies can operate in a unified and synchronous manner, avoiding overlap and conflict in management work. This helps create a stronger and more efficient cybersecurity system.

Focus resources: Focusing cybersecurity management on one agency will help optimize resources, including human resources, finance and technology, thereby enhancing the ability to respond quickly and effectively to cyber threats.

Ensuring transparency and responsibility

Clearly define management responsibilities: A management focal point will clarify the responsibility of state agencies in protecting network security, from policy implementation, supervision to handling network security incidents. This helps avoid shirking responsibility between different agencies and organizations.

easier monitoring and inspection: When there is a clear management agency, the monitoring and inspection of activities related to cybersecurity will be more convenient, helping to promptly detect problems and handle them quickly.

Strengthening the ability to respond to cybersecurity threats

Quick response to cybersecurity incidents: In the context of increasingly complex and dangerous cybersecurity threats, having a host agency helps improve the ability to respond quickly to incidents, while helping to minimize damage and stop the risk of attack.

Information sharing and effective coordination: A management focal point will help improve information sharing between authorities, thereby coordinating the handling of cybersecurity incidents more effectively. This is also an important factor in responding to cross-border attacks.

Ensuring the sustainable development of cybersecurity infrastructure

Developing synchronous network infrastructure: Unifying management focal points helps deploy and develop national network security infrastructure synchronously, avoiding the situation where state agencies or operating enterprises do not have close coordination.

Encourage creativity and innovation: A host agency will create a favorable environment to develop advanced cybersecurity technologies, thereby helping Vietnam reduce dependence on foreign technology and enhance autonomy in cybersecurity.

Promoting international cooperation on cybersecurity

Ensuring consistency in foreign affairs: In the field of cybersecurity, international cooperation is indispensable. Having a management focal point will help Vietnam have an official representative to participate in international forums, cooperation in information sharing and cybersecurity technology.

Unified and easy-to-implement policies: The single management focal point helps build clear cybersecurity policies, while coordinating with other countries to implement international agreements and standards on cybersecurity.

Protecting the rights of people and businesses

Protecting the rights of citizens and organizations: A synchronous management system will help protect people and businesses from attacks, intrusion and abuse of personal information, thereby creating a safe online environment for the community.

Encourage the development of digital services: When there is a unified and strong cybersecurity management system, people and businesses will feel more secure when using online services, thereby promoting the development of the digital economy.

Unifying state management focal points on cybersecurity not only helps create a solid information network protection system but also improves response to threats, protects the rights of people and businesses, and promotes the sustainable development of technology and the digital economy in Vietnam.
