Sharjah Executive Council announced the establishment of the Sharjah Cyber Security Centre, which will operate under the Digital Sharjah umbrella. The centre’s primary goal is to create a complete system for keeping information safe and secure.
It will focus on raising awareness about cybersecurity and training people to ensure that information is protected effectively and sustainably.
The centre is tasked with developing rules and guidelines to protect information and online activities. It will also watch over how well government agencies follow these rules in the emirate.
The centre also works to bring together different public and private organisations, both locally and internationally, to enhance collaboration. In addition, it offers technical help and advice on information security issues and partners with research groups to study topics related to online safety and security.
The Council also announced Abdul Nasser Obaid Ibrahim Bu Khater’s appointment as the new Director of the Sharjah Cyber Security Centre.
The Council examined a proposed law to oversee Sharjah’s judicial system. This new law is designed to ensure that the judicial authority operates independently within the emirate. It clearly outlines the roles and responsibilities of various entities involved in the judicial process, including the Judicial Council, the Judicial Department, the courts, the prosecution, judicial inspections, and the regulations concerning judges.
