NEC Corporation to Train Cybersecurity Personnel for ASEAN Member Countries
NEC Corporation through NEC Corporation Thailand Ltd. (NEC Thailand) will conduct exercises with the ASEAN-Japan Cybersecurity Capacity Building Centre (AJCCBC) in order to develop cybersecurity human resources for ASEAN Member States.
NEC, in collaboration with NEC Thailand and NEC Asia Pacific, will hold a variety of hands-on cybersecurity exercises with the AJCCBC, including recovery measures against cyberattacks, and incident response exercises for personnel from governments and critical infrastructure companies based in ASEAN Member States. These exercises will be held four times in Bangkok, Thailand by December 2023.
Moreover, new exercises will also be provided for trainers, aiming for them to conduct local exercises independently in the future.
Japan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) opened the AJCCBC in September 2018, a project supported by the Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF) to develop cybersecurity human resources in ASEAN countries.
