Participants were provided with basic contents, the necessity and the purpose of promulgation and the meanings of articles in the Law on Cyber Security which comes to effect on January 1, 2019. The meeting aimed at contributing to raise workers’ awareness on execution of the Law on Cyber Security.

Adopted last June, the Law on Cyber Security aims to meet the need to protect the national security and ensure social order and safety in cyberspace.

The 43-article Law contains specific provisions on cyber security protection for information systems of national security importance; prevention and handling of acts of infringing upon cyber security; cyber security protection activities; and responsibilities of related agencies, organizations and individuals.

The Law devote a separate chapter to providing for cyber security protection for information systems of national security importance. Accordingly, this work must closely combine with socio-economic development, guarantee of human rights and citizens’ rights, and facilitation of operations of agencies, organizations and individuals in cyberspace.

The Law also requires competent agencies to proactively prevent, detect, stop, fight and spoil any activities of using cyberspace to infringe upon national security, social order and safety, or lawful rights and interests of agencies, organizations and individuals; and stay ready to avert cyber security threats.
