T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s Cybersecurity Board held its first meeting at the presidential complex in Ankara under the chairmanship of President Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan, with officials stressing that cybersecurity is an integral part of national security.class=”cf”>
\nIn a written statement after the meeting, the board said issues concerning the country\u2019s cybersecurity were discussed in detail, including current risks, future trends and recent international developments.
\nThe Cybersecurity Presidency will continue its work to protect T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s digital assets, establish a proactive structure against threats, build a strong national cybersecurity architecture and support a secure digital future, the statement said.
\nThe board also said growing global competition, regional tensions and conflict zones had made cyber threats more complex and multidimensional.
\nCybersecurity should therefore be treated as a strategic issue with economic, technological and social dimensions, it added.
\nThe meeting reviewed the main elements of T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s national cybersecurity approach, with the protection of critical infrastructure, the security of digital systems and capacity-building in domestic technologies named as priority areas.class=”cf”>
\nData sovereignty was also discussed separately. The board said data was not only a technical matter but also a strategic asset, adding that T\u00fcrkiye would strengthen its approach to digital sovereignty.
\nIncreasing cyber resilience and deterrence against current and potential threats was also listed among the main goals.
\nThe board agreed to take concrete steps in line with the priorities set at the meeting and to ensure the effective participation of relevant stakeholders.
\nIt also decided to strengthen coordination between institutions and increase domestic and sustainable capacity in critical fields.
\nDigital infrastructure, digital services, electronic communications, energy, finance, food and agriculture, manufacturing, public services, media and crisis communication, postal and cargo services, health, defense industry, water management, transport and space were designated as critical infrastructure sectors.
\nVice President Cevdet Y\u0131lmaz, Justice Minister Ak\u0131n G\u00fcrlek, Interior Minister Mustafa \u00c7ift\u00e7i, Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, Industry and Technology Minister Mehmet Fatih Kac\u0131r and Transport and Infrastructure Minister Abdulkadir Uralo\u011flu attended the meeting.
