South Korea, NATO Forge Stronger Cybersecurity Cooperation
(MENAFN) High-level discussions between South Korea and NATO on strengthening cybersecurity cooperation took place on Thursday in Seoul, according to media, citing the country’s Foreign Ministry.
The talks, focused on enhancing defense against cyber threats, were spearheaded by South Korean Ambassador for International Cyber Affairs Lee Tae Woo and Jean-Charles Ellermann-Kingombe, NATO’s Assistant Secretary General for Innovation, Hybrid and Cyber.
Both parties committed to expanding their collaboration on countering cyber risks and assessing cybersecurity vulnerabilities across the Indo-Pacific and Euro-Atlantic regions.
