A LAWMAKER has called on his colleagues to work on the speedy approval of pending bills that aim to protect the country’s digital infrastructure from cyberattacks.
“The National Cybersecurity Plan adopted by the President, complemented by strengthening multilateral ties with our allies, and passing pending bills in Congress that aim to transport our country’s safety into the digital era will help fortify our defenses against increasing cyberthreats and other intrusions,” Yamsuan said.
On the other hand, HB 8199 designates the National Computer Emergency Response Team as the government’s centralized reporting mechanism for information security incidents. Yamsuan said while several government agencies already have some sort of mechanism to boost their cybersecurity capabilities, a unified system of setting up minimum security standards, monitoring, detecting and mitigating threats needs to be established.
