In 2025, Vietnam experienced over 552,000 cyberattacks, with more than 52% of agencies and businesses suffering damage, a significant increase from 46.15% in 2024. This indicates that cybersecurity risks are real, but the workforce in this field is insufficient to meet actual needs.
Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW dated December 22, 2024, of the Politburo on the development of science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation identifies cybersecurity as a key and inseparable element in the digital transformation process, with the following focuses: Protecting cyberspace sovereignty; Protecting digital data; Ensuring information safety and security. Specifically, Prime Minister's Decision No. 21/2026/QD-TTg, effective from July 1, 2026, further affirms cybersecurity as one of the nation's 10 strategic technology groups.
However, to effectively prevent and deter fraudulent schemes, and to promptly detect and stop cyberattacks, in addition to the operational measures of law enforcement agencies, a strong cybersecurity workforce is needed in the long term to maintain this crucial "front line." Regarding this issue, a reporter from Nhan Dan Newspaper had a discussion with the following individuals: Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Hai Dang, Vice Rector of the University of Science and Technology of Hanoi (USTH), Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology; Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Tan Tran Minh Khang, Rector of the University of Information Technology (Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City); and Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Huu Hieu, Rector of the University of Engineering and Technology (University of Da Nang).
