The UAE Cybersecurity Council has warned all public and private institutions, as well as individuals, of the risk of cyber attacks, especially during the New Year celebrations and the holiday season.
The council highlighted the need for all authorities and institutions to activate their cyber defence systems and raise the security awareness of individuals, as well as cooperate with relevant authorities to share information proactively.
It also noted that hacking tools have now become easier to use, enabling hackers to take advantage of the festive season, considering the increasing dependence on digital services.
The council warned of all types of cyber attacks against vital sectors, stressing the importance of adopting protection mechanisms, as well as staying vigilant.
