The Rising Threat of Cyberattacks in Taiwan: A Must-Read Report for Taiwanese SMEs and Industry Associations

Over the past 20 years, Taiwan has risen to play a pivotal role in the global supply chain. Its semiconductor fabs produce microchips driving innovation at the core of nearly every global industry.

Taiwan’s contract manufacturers have established themselves as stalwarts of quality, and it’s often overlooked that their expertise in factory design and mass production is what fueled China’s economic growth.

While such praise is well-deserved, there are hidden consequences to Taiwan’s technological prowess.

Nowadays, the digital realm is where we negotiate the future. Cybersecurity threats and state-sponsored espionage campaigns plague every corner of the internet.

This is why we created: The Rising Threat of Cyberattacks in Taiwan. (Enter your business email to download the report.)

To give you an example of what’s inside, here are some new insights we uncovered:

• Large companies already have the resources to stay ahead of threat actors — it’s the small to medium-sized businesses who are most at risk.
• Smaller Taiwanese businesses are often sub-contractors or vendors to enterprises and the government, which often make them the weakest link in the attack chain.
• Staying one step ahead of cybercriminals is a matter of both national and private security.

As a preview, here are all of the sections in the 35-page report:

1. A Brief History of Cyberattacks: Lessons from America
2. The Cybersecurity Landscape in Taiwan
3. Understanding Attack Groups and Their Methods
4. Best Practices for Small to Medium Sized Businesses
5. Strengthening Cybersecurity with Remote Browsing
6. Helpful Links and Resources
7. References

Unlike larger corporations with significant resources and IT know-how, smaller businesses are increasingly exploited by hackers to access confidential information. In addition, industry associations are faced with the challenge of keeping their members updated on the latest threats and preventive measures.

For Taiwan to continue its technological growth while minimizing risks, it’s crucial that SMEs and industry associations leverage these insights by downloading the report today.
