Cybersecurity as a National Priority: President Luis

By George Lendeborg
As global cybercrime rates soar, the Dominican Republic faces a critical challenge in safeguarding its national security and protecting its citizens. Recognizing this urgent need, President Luis Abinader has taken decisive action to position the nation at the forefront of cybersecurity initiatives.

On October 22, Abinader enacted Decree 612-24, a strategic move aimed at streamlining administrative structures related to cybersecurity. This landmark decree underscores the importance of efficient decision-making within the National Security and Defense Council, setting a proactive tone for the country's approach to cybersecurity governance.

Abinader's vision includes the establishment of the Specialized Technical Commission on Cybersecurity (CTEC), which will enhance interinstitutional coordination and expedite governmental decision-making processes. This commission is a pivotal element of the National Cybersecurity Strategy, designed to adapt to the rapidly evolving technological landscape.

Furthermore, the decree delegates the responsibility for developing cybersecurity strategies to the National Intelligence Directorate (DNI) and expands the capabilities of the National Cybersecurity Center (CNCS). It also establishes the first National Cryptographic Institute (ICN), dedicated to strengthening the protection of sensitive information and fostering research on digital sovereignty in collaboration with academic institutions.

Through Decree 612-24, President Abinader aims to align the Dominican Republic with the world's most advanced nations in cybersecurity. This initiative not only enhances the state's security framework but also supports the private and academic sectors in fostering a comprehensive approach to digital safety.

In light of the growing influence of artificial intelligence, which presents new threats for cybercriminals to exploit, the state is obligated to proactively mitigate the rise of digital crimes. By prioritizing cybersecurity, Abinader reinforces the government's commitment to safeguarding the integrity of the nation and ensuring a secure digital environment for all citizens.

Involving universities and higher education institutions in this endeavor is essential. Other countries have successfully implemented protocols to harness AI effectively, and the Dominican Republic must adopt similar strategies to innovate and develop technological solutions across various sectors.

President Abinader's commitment to cybersecurity is not just a response to current challenges; it is a forward-looking vision that positions the Dominican Republic as a leader in governance and digital safety. This initiative represents a crucial step toward ensuring a secure future for the nation, enabling it to thrive in an increasingly interconnected world.
