Prime Minister Le Minh Hung, head of the National Cybersecurity Steering Committee, shared this message at a rally marking Vietnam Cybersecurity Day.
The prime minister emphasized that ensuring cybersecurity requires a synchronized approach, integrating both "system protection" and "human protection." The ultimate goal is to measure all policies by the safety, peace, and happiness of the people.

Addressing the National Cybersecurity Steering Committee, Prime Minister Hung called for completing the legal framework and removing bottlenecks related to cybersecurity, data, and personal data protection. He stressed the immediate need for strong sanctions to strictly address legal violations in cyberspace, fostering a safe, healthy, and reliable digital environment.
He also urged technology, telecommunications, and financial enterprises to embrace their "social responsibility." Specifically, banks should proactively adopt human-centric security architectures and integrate free, automatic fraud warning features for users.
Specialized cybersecurity forces are tasked with maintaining their role as a "steel shield," firmly protecting national digital sovereignty.
