"The message was clear the cyber security is no longer just a technical subject, but it is an essential and critical part of our everyday life," the air chief said on the occasion.
Noting that the protection of sensitive information is one of the most crucial benefits of strong cyber security measures and with the increasing number of cyber threats and attacks, he said it has become imperative for organisations and individuals to safeguard their sensitive data from unauthorised access and potential breaches.
"We can mitigate the risks and protect ourselves against potential harm by implementing effective cyber security measures," the BAF Chief observed, according to a release of Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) this afternoon.
The air chief said, “The cyber security isn't just the responsibility of our IT experts, it requires all of us to work together, to keep all safe in cyberspace and through these collective efforts.”
BAF would continue to play a pioneer role in best cyber security practices and set an example for others to follow, he mentioned.
