Accelerating Business and Consumers Readiness to Cybersecurity and Cybersafety

Pacific Regional

About the Program

As Measure 6.2.3 of the Pacific Regional E-commerce Strategy and Roadmap points out, cybersecurity and cybersafety for businesses, and consumers, is a fundamental enabler of E-commerce.

Businesses need the skills to know how to keep their businesses safe from data breaches, malware, denial-of-service attacks and insider threats. Consumers also need to have basic cybersafety skills to keep their identity and personal data safe, and to avoid risks such as phishing.

Cybersecurity capacity building programmes exist in the Pacific to strengthen  cybersecurity capacity regionally, but a lot of this work is targeted to Pacific Island government and citizens only. However, cybersecurity is a priority for businesses as well.
