In his opening remarks, Gen. Hung emphasized that the seminar aimed to create an academic and practical forum for scientists, experts, and managers to share experience, present research results, and introduce new technological solutions in the fields of information security, cybersecurity, and digital transformation.
He also stressed that ensuring information security today must go beyond “defense” to pro-active, intelligent, and automated protection that is capable of early detection, accurate forecasting, and rapid response to cyber threats. At the same time, the application of AI, big data, next-generation cryptography, and blockchain opens up innovative approaches in monitoring, governing, and protecting data which are the core of the digital economy.

Presentations and discussions took a multi-dimensional approach, combining scientific depth with practical application in agencies, units, and enterprises. They focused on three core topics, namely identifying emerging technology trends and the impact of artificial intelligence on standards and methods of cyber protection; defining secure data governance models, recognizing data as a strategic asset and core infrastructure of the digital economy; and ensuring the security of operational technology and industrial control systems (OT/ICS) which are increasingly exposed to non-traditional threats.
Other comprehensive solutions were also proposed to strengthen cybersecurity capacity, foster innovative security thinking, promote technological autonomy, develop next-generation cryptography, and apply blockchain technology in unmanned aerial vehicles.
