Dubai - Cyber security has become an essential requirement in the digital era as the world has become more connected, His Highness said.
On the launch of the strategy, Sheikh Mohammed highlighted the UAE's high ranking at both regional and international levels in providing security for individuals and organisations in the country.

His Highness said that cyber security has become an essential requirement in the digital era as the world has become more connected with the spread of smart technologies. He also stressed the importance of developing strategies that enable us to maximise the benefits of technology and ensure our readiness to face any challenges it may bring us.
"We have set ourselves firmly on a path of excellence and creativity in the UAE, and today with the launch of the Dubai Cyber Security Strategy; we are adding a new achievement to the list of the government's many accomplishments. This proves to the world that the more challenges we face, the more determined we are to achieve the highest excellence," Sheikh Mohammed said.

"We want to harness technology to create a new reality in Dubai and a different life, a new model of development".
