HA NOI (Biz Hub) — Information security awareness among Vietnamese enterprises had gradually increased and they had started to recognise the importance of investing in information security.

The information was provided by Vu Quoc Thanh, deputy chairman of the Viet Nam Information Security Association (VNISA), at the Viet Nam Information Security Day on Thursday in Ha Noi.

The conclusion was based on a survey carried out by the VNISA of 598 firms and organisations.

He said that despite the improvement, information security in Viet Nam was still lacking. VNISA publicised that only 37.5 per cent of firms were protected in 2013, an increase of 11.5 per cent compared with last year.

Thanh said that only 0.8 per cent of organisations that were attacked reported and asked for help within one week, making hacking difficult to tackle.

Attending the conference, Deputy Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Minh Hong said that the Department of Information Security planned to release policies, regulations and measures to prevent hacking and lower the damage caused by cyber attacks. He said the ministry was drafting a law on information security to meet management requirements. — VNS
