TCT opens cyberthreat combat centre
published : 15 Dec 2020 at 04:00 Mr Vichaow, left, said the TTC-CERT will work on data exchange.
The Telecommunications Association of Thailand (TCT) yesterday launched a centre to coordinate efforts to combat cyberthreats in the telecom industry and to serve as a venue for information-sharing about the issue.
The centre is called TTC-CERT, or Thailand Telecom Computer Emergency Response Team.
Some 18 million baht will be budgeted by the Broadcasting and Telecommunications Research and Development Fund to the centre over the next three years.
The TCT plans to build a centralised data-sharing platform next August, which will serve as the main channel for its members to notify and get updates on cyberthreats as well as exchange related information with members of the public.
