Kamruzzaman, expressed regret over missed opportunities to enhance cybersecurity in Bangladesh following the 2014 Sonali Bank hack. Speaking at the “Pre-Cyber Drill Conference 2025,” he emphasized that greater awareness could have potentially prevented the 2016 Bangladesh Bank hack. Kamruzzaman urged stakeholders to treat cybersecurity with more urgency and stressed the importance of robust measures, noting that many CTOs failed to convince CEOs of the issue’s importance due to the lack of immediate tangible benefits.
Fahad Zaman Chowdhury, Joint Director (ICT) at Bangladesh Bank, stressed the importance of security awareness training, phishing simulations, and social engineering awareness for all employees. He called for regular security assessments, vulnerability management, incident response planning, and continuous monitoring. He suggested that adopting data protection and privacy regulations like GDPR would enhance Bangladesh’s security. Additionally, he mentioned that Bangladesh Bank’s ICT security guidelines could help other organizations improve their cybersecurity.
Bangladesh Computer Society (BCS) here as the technical partner and BGD e-GOV CIRT will manage the CTF platform where the drill will involve 150 professional cybersecurity engineers who will support participating organizations in conducting the exercises.
