MANILA, Philippines – Ipatutupad ang karagdagang security protocols sa 49th ASEAN Summit International Media Center (IMC) sa Pasay City kasunod ng report ng data breaches sa ilang ahensya ng pamahalaan, ayon sa Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT).
“Since we’re putting additional security protocols, [I] would say it lessens the latency for the internet speed,” sinabi ni DICT Secretary Robert Joseph de Claro.
“Considering the importance of the ASEAN for our country, we needed to take additional security measures to ensure that the data and everything is secured coming from the center,” dagdag pa niya.
Ang pahayag ni De Claro ay matapos mapansin ang mabagal na Wi-Fi sa IMC.
Noong nakaraang linggo ay nasa 10 ahensya ng pamahalaan ang nagpasa ng personal data breach notifications sa National Privacy Commission (NPC).
Ayon sa Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC), natukoy na nila ang mga nasa likod ng data breach.
Samantala, sinabi ni Presidential Communications Office Secretary Lino Cayetano na walang namomonitor na anumang “specific threat” ang mga awtoridad sa ngayon.
“There’s no one specific threat, but it’s really heightened alert and focus on making sure that we do a proper assessment and evaluation [s]o there are no breaches,” ani Cayetano.
“There’s no identified threat today. But we are preparing that it might be AI-driven. So, with that, we need to put additional protocols,” dagdag pa niya. RNT/JGC
