State Personal Data Protection Agency under the Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic joined forces with the OSCE Programme Office in Bishkek to conduct a two-day training programme aimed at bolstering cybersecurity, personal data protection, and raising awareness about cybersecurity within the healthcare and education sectors.

Additionally, it sought to raise awareness about the risks and threats that individuals may encounter in the online environment. The training featured digital experts discussing topics such as cyber hygiene, the use of AI technologies, and information system security in the healthcare sector.

In an era marked by rapid IT development and the ever-increasing integration of digital technologies into daily life, the significance of robust cybersecurity measures cannot be overstated. The threat landscape is constantly evolving, making it imperative for state bodies and institutions to remain vigilant in safeguarding sensitive information. As cyberattacks become more sophisticated, state entities must adapt to protect their digital infrastructure, which includes vital healthcare and educational systems. Ensuring the security and integrity of data in this digital age is essential to maintain public trust and national security.

The OSCE Programme Office in Bishkek reaffirmed its commitment to further collaboration with the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic. This collaboration is founded upon the Comprehensive Security framework, which encompasses various aspects of security, including bolstering cybersecurity measures, ultimately contributing to a more secure and resilient digital environment.
