Barbados Advocate posted an article on September 26, 2020, about the importance of public-private partnership (PPP) in Cyber Security. Below are some key highlights:
- The establishment of a public-private partnership (PPP) is important as we look towards fighting cyber-security threats. As we look forward to the future, Manky expressed that persons could expect to have COVID-19 around for a long time and in order to address the issues caused by COVID-19 in cyberspace, it was important to band together and act now.
- “We need to work from a point of a public-private relationship. “So these are things that we need to address and we can probably only effectively address these when we work together.”
- Senator Kay McConney, Minister of Innovation, Science and Smart Technology acknowledged that Barbados would actively seek to foster regional and global corporations with partners in order to build its capacity and keep up to date with threats in cyberspace, as well as come up with solutions to these problems.
- “We know that we have to evolve this working group into a more robust structure and this structure will further help us to shape our cybersecurity governance posture as well as the institutional framework as it relates to standards and compliance within the sector.”
