The authority strongly emphasised the paramount necessity for vital sectors to engage in active mitigation of cyberattacks through the expeditious deployment of robust protection systems, the rigorous enforcement of established cybersecurity policies, and the timely reporting of any suspicious electronic activity with the potential to cause harm to their systems and electronic environments to the designated authorities.
