Taiwan and the US are set to begin holding joint cybersecurity exercises on an annual basis. That’s the word from Taiwan’s digital minister, Audrey Tang, on Wednesday.
Taiwan and the US jointly held the Cyber Offensive and Defensive Exercises last month. The event simulated a North Korean cyber-attack on financial infrastructure. Tang said the exercise was a big success. In addition to Taiwan and the US, a total of ten countries including Indonesia, Japan, the Czech Republic, Australia, and Malaysia also took part. Tang said more countries could join future exercises.
