Individuals continue to avail services as face-to-face operations and transactions continue at the Philippine Health Insurance Corp. in Quezon City on Tuesday amid recent cyber attack.MANILA, Philippines — All government agencies and the private sector must beef up their protection against cybersecurity threats, said Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian, as he pointed out that the hacking of state health insurer Philippine Health Insurance Corp. remains unresolved.
He said more Filipinos and businesses rely on digital technologies to perform their daily tasks, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. “The adoption and implementation of minimum information security standards is a globally accepted best practice to provide guidance, which would lead to more efficient use of resources, improved risk management, consistent delivery of critical and essential services and effective protection of the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information that is vital to the nation,” he added.
Gatchalian said the bill also intends to mandate the National Computer Emergency Response Team to act as the central authority for computer emergency response teams in the country, and to administer the centralized information security incident reporting mechanism that would cover industries that include banking and finance, broadcast media, emergency services and disaster response, energy, health, telecommunications and transportation.
