Cyber Security Readiness

Cyber Security Readiness Maturity Index

The Kingdom of Bahrain was ranked highly on the Cyber Security Readiness Maturity Index, as per the latest International Telecommunications Union (ITU) report. In the Arab region, the Kingdom is considered advanced by the ICT Development Index (IDI) and the Telecommunications Infrastructure Index (TII), as per the latest United Nations (UN) eGovernment Survey.

This achievement is thanks to several major initiatives to raise the levels of cyber security readiness in the telecommunications sector and the application of local and international best practices. The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) created a set of regulations to manage threats to the telecommunications infrastructure, enhancing the Kingdom’s cyber security readiness.

Among the TRA‘s responsibilities is the continuous implementation of initiatives that strengthen cooperation between the public and private sectors, ensuring readiness against the increasing cyber security threats faced by the world and that ICT services are sustainable, secure, and able to support a robust digital economy.
