TIRANA, Dec 5 /ATA/ Linda Karçanaj, the Director of the National Agency for the Information Society (AKSHI), held a meeting on Thursday with Yves Belliveau, a representative of the Canadian Embassy in Italy, and Gregory Bunghardt from the Canadian Department of Public Safety.
Karçanaj informed that the meeting revolved around cybersecurity and protection against imminent threats.
“At the same time, we revisited our experience in managing the attack back in July two years ago, where our swift response helped us navigate the situation at minimal costs. The Canadian colleagues, speaking about similar incidents and potential threats, shared that efforts are currently being made in their country to enhance legislation and create an action plan to counter cyberattacks,” said Karçanaj.
