Enhancing Cyber Security In The Public Sector

CyberSpace is the frontier where fierce competition amongst organizations and nations. This highly contested space is critical for future development of nations. Its importance is premised on the exponential growth of the knowledge economy and Industry 4.0; pillared on the rising digitalization and the connectedness of the global community. The volume of data traffic in cyberspace is growing many folds,  and is not expected to slow down. Security of this space is very critical for global and national development. However, the governance of this important space is very fluid and contentious and susceptible to huge risks. Protecting digital infrastructure in Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) is imperative to ensure continued delivery of public services.

It is therefore incumbent upon public policy makers, as custodian to the nation's governance system, to maintain an environment that minimize the risks from these threats to ensure integrity of our governance systems at all levels are protected. Emerging technologies will continue to pose challenges to existing systems; and understanding evolving issues becomes pertinent if we are to properly manage these threats.
