: In September 2009, my Department sought tenders from interested parties for the preparation of a report on the development of a national strategy on cyber security.The terms of reference of the report include addressing best practice for the detection and reaction to cyber attacks, the development of a structure to oversee planning and response to cyber attacks and the development of structures to keep the public aware of information security threats.The work on the preparation of the report is ongoing and has involved engaging with public and private sector stakeholders. I expect the report to be completed in the near future.
