Enhancing Cybersecurity – PCPD Participates in the “Bug Hunting Campaign 2024” as a Strategic Partner

The Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) participates in the “Bug ​​Hunting Campaign 2024” (Campaign) as a Strategic Partner. The Campaign is co-organised by the Cyber ​​Security and Technology Crime Bureau (CSTCB) of the Hong Kong Police Force and Cyberbay.  Organisations which enrol in the Campaign will have their website security levels tested by cybersecurity experts to help identify potential vulnerabilities. The CSTCB will announce the list of participating organisations that meet the specified cybersecurity requirements on the official website of “CyberDefender” to commend their efforts in safeguarding cybersecurity.
 
The PCPD will assist participating organisations in enhancing their staff awareness of data security and personal data protection. Eligible participating organisations can attend PCPD’s professional workshop on “Personal Data Privacy Management Programme” in August free of charge, as well as enjoy discounted rates for PCPD’s in-house training seminars.
 
Mr Brad KWOK, Chief Personal Data Officer (Compliance and Enquiries) of PCPD, attended the press conference for the launch of the Campaign and shared the latest trends of data breach incidents. Mr Kwok encouraged organisations to join the Campaign.
