Cyber-emergency response team to guard Thai telecoms

Telecoms firms backed by the industry regulator are setting up a team to deal with cyberthreats.

 

The National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC)’s research and development fund has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Telecommunications Association of Thailand and nine telecom operators to launch the Thailand Telecommunications Computer Emergency Response Team (TCC-CERT).

 

The team will coordinate with the signatories to handle cyberthreats, conduct research and development and promote expertise on internet crime and threats.

 

The NBTC fund last year granted about Bt18 million to support the project for three years, beginning on September 22 this year. The move is also in line with the Cyber Security Act of 2562, which aims to reinforce security in the telecom sector.
