Facing the increasingly sophisticated risk of cyber attack, the State Audit has organized an information security exercise. The objective is to improve the security capacity, maintain the reputation of the audit industry and the transparency in public management. On September 23, the State Audit (SAV) organized a rehearsal of information security warfare, checking the defense capacity of the data system. This activity confirms the determination to protect digital infrastructure and improve the efficiency of public administration in the digital transformation era. The Deputy State Auditor Bui Quoc Dung emphasized that it is necessary to strengthen solutions to control access, deploy multi -factors authentication and raise the security awareness for the whole industry of cybersecurity, in the context of strong digital transformation, Vietnam is facing an increasingly sophisticated and complex network of cyber attacks. Cyber security experts recorded in the first half of 2025, the country had more than 8.5 million stolen accounts, nearly 530,000 attacks on dispersion services (DDOS) and 191 data leaks with more than 3 billion recorded records - 3 times higher than the same period last year. The attacks with monopoly codes have caused more than US 10 million damage, causing Vietnam to be among the 10 most cyber attacks in the world. According to statistics from specialized agencies, many key systems in the field of finance, banking, telecommunications and state agencies have become the target of hackers. These attacks not only cause economic damage but also directly affect the reputation and safety of the nations data. Typically, the case of hackers attacked the National Credit Information Center (CIC) of the State Bank, with signs of appropriating personal data. Before that situation, the SAV determines that information security is particularly important, directly attached to the quality and reputation of the industry. The information technology system of the SAV is one of the key national data infrastructure, not only serving audit activities but also storing large amounts of data on budget, finance and public assets. The SAV organizes information security rehearsals, inspecting the defense capacity of the State auditing system to proactively respond to information security rehearsals on information technology system, with the coordination of Viettel network security company (Red Team) and NGS Equipment and Communication Joint Stock Company (Defense Unit - Blue Team). The rehearsal was designed to check the defenses against hypothetical attack situations, thereby detecting limitations to promptly fix it. However, the system of SAV has detected and responded quickly, prevented success, not letting the attacker occupy the control of the core system. This is a testament to the increasingly advanced security capacity of the SAV, and shows the important role of training and training in building shields of information security. Viettel network security expert presented the process and results obtained after the information security exercise on the basis of the drill results, Mr. Bui Quoc Dung asked the units to urgently overcome the gap, upgrade the information security system to level 4 - the highest level as the current regulations. At the same time, he emphasized that it is necessary to strengthen solutions to control access and deploy multi -factor authentication (MFA) and raise the security awareness for the whole industry.Song Song, the SAV continues to coordinate with the Vietnam Cyber Emergency Response Center (VNCERT) and the Department of Cyber Security (A05) - Ministry of Public Security in the supervision and incident rescue. The maintenance of this cooperation helps the information technology system of the SAV operate stably and safely, meeting the requirements of political tasks and the goals of national digital transformation. Not only focus on security, the SAV leader said: This agency also promotes the application of information technology and digital transformation in professional activities. In particular, this agency is focusing on researching and deploying artificial intelligence applications (AI). According to the plan, AI will be used to support identification and selection of audited units for annual planning; analyze, evaluate and synthesize audit findings and recommendations; Building a model to support the quality control of audit activities. This is a step in accordance with the policy of transforming the national digital and the SAV development strategy to 2030. Deputy General Audit Bui Quoc Dung highly appreciates the sense of responsibility and professional coordination of the units participating in the drill.
