In the face of the ever-present challenges of cybersecurity, Taiwan needs to continuously strengthen its response capability and management mechanism. The government will promote domestic self-developed cybersecurity products and services and encourage investment in cybersecurity innovations. Cybersecurity requires the combined efforts of all, and the government will work with industry and private experts to build an internationally trusted cybersecurity system and industry chain."CYBERSEC 2023 held over 30 cybersecurity forumsSince the impact of cybersecurity covers aspects of technology, management and policy, this year's conference planned more than 30 thematic forums to focus on important cybersecurity trends and issues, providing a comprehensive view of the cybersecurity industry and industrial cybersecurity.
