Cybersecurity is central to building digital trust
The year 2025 marks an important turning point for the country, when institutional reform, digital transformation and international integration are strongly promoted.
Cyberspace has become an essential infrastructure for all activities of national life. However, the rapid development of technology also poses challenges to network safety and security such as: organized attacks, personal data leaks, information manipulation, etc.
Following the direction of the Party, State and Ministry of Public Security leaders, in the first 6 months of 2025, the National Cyber Security Association has carried out many tasks.
Regarding policy and law development, the Association has actively participated in providing comments on important legal documents, notably the Draft Law on Personal Data Protection. At the same time, the Association is also proactively researching and providing comments on the Draft Law on Cyber Security 2025, following the direction of merging the Law on Cyber Security 2015 and the Law on Cyber Security 2018.
Key areas of work such as policy consultation and criticism, training and product development, communications and foreign affairs, and preparations for the signing ceremony of the Hanoi Convention were all implemented on schedule.
Regarding capacity training and awareness raising, the Association has deployed the online training platform nCademy - Digital Academy on cybersecurity and digital transformation, contributing to raising awareness, skills and developing high-quality human resources.
The Association also officially established the Vietnam Cyber Security Magazine – a specialized media outlet on cyber security. At the same time, the “Press Talkshow” series has also become a regular forum for professional exchange, promoting dialogue and spreading awareness of cyber security in the community.
