Premier Chen emphasizes cybersecurity amid rising attacks

TAIPEI (TVBS News) — In response to a surge in cyberattacks targeting Taiwan's major corporations, Premier Chen Chien-jen underscored the urgency of enhancing cybersecurity during his visit to local banks on Wednesday (Nov. 22) for an assessment of fraud prevention measures.

Chen noted that several businesses have already reported incidents to law enforcement, with the Criminal Investigation Bureau working in tandem with relevant agencies to address these cases.

The Premier advocated for a "zero trust" approach, calling on companies to reinforce their cybersecurity infrastructure. He also highlighted the potential role of the National Institute of Cyber Security in providing necessary support.
