Thailand Lays Out New Cybersecurity Standards

Thailand's National Cyber Security Committee (NCSC) released three notifications under the Cybersecurity Act on January 18, 2024, setting cybersecurity-related requirements for key organizations and assets. While one of these notifications already took effect, the two most notable will take effect on January 18, 2025 (i.e., one year from their publication in the Government Gazette).

These two are the NCSC Notification Re: Standards for Defining the Security Category for Data or Information Systems B.E. 2566 (2023) ("Notification on Security Category") and the NCSC Notification Re: Minimum Standards for Data and Information Systems B.E. 2566 (2023) ("Notification on Minimum Standards").
