How does the Kingdom of Bahrain safeguard its economic development and prosperity in today's digital age? Bahrain recognizes that a secure Information and Communications Technology (ICT) infrastructure is the cornerstone of its economic growth. In a world where digital threats abound, the Kingdom is taking proactive measures to ensure the safety of both its public and private sector infrastructure.

Two main pillars in Bahrain's cybersecurity strategy are the Ministry of Interior organizations: the General Directorate of Anti-Corruption and Economic & Electronic Security and the National Cyber Security Centre. These entities play a crucial role in defending against online and financial threats that could compromise the Kingdom's economic stability and growth.

Bahrain's National Cyber Security Strategy is a comprehensive strategy that leads the efforts to improve cyber security over a period of four years. The strategy is organized into five pillars that support the cyber security needs of the Kingdom i.e. Strong and Resilient Cyber Defenses, Effective Cyber Security Governance and Standards, Building a Cyber Aware Nation, Collective Defense Through Partnership and Cooperation, and Cyber Workforce Development.

By prioritizing cyber security, Bahrain not only protects its present but also paves the way for a future where digital innovation can thrive securely. This commitment reflects the Kingdom's dedication to maintaining a safe and resilient digital ecosystem where businesses and individuals can operate with confidence, driving economic prosperity for years to come.

As we navigate through the digital age, Bahrain confirms its commitment to transparency and innovation through the Open Data initiative through Bahrain’s Open Data Portal.
