NTMC reports significant progress in cybersecurity
DHAKA, Aug 29, 2026 (BSS) – The National Telecommunication Monitoring Centre (NTMC) has reported significant progress in strengthening cybersecurity, protecting citizens’ information and ensuring uninterrupted operation of critical ICT infrastructure.
According to the six-month progress report on the implementation of the BNP’s electoral pledges on law and order, the <a href="https://bitcomme.com/57-of-tech-products-bought-by-nigerian-government-firms-are-refurbished/” title=”57% Of Tech Products Bought By Nigerian Government, Firms Are Refurbished”>government has prioritised modernising cybersecurity infrastructure and protecting sensitive information as part of its broader efforts to strengthen national security.
The report said NTMC has completed the modernisation of its firewall infrastructure, achieving 100 percent progress against the target.
The upgraded firewall is aimed at enhancing protection against cyber threats and unauthorised access to critical information systems.
The report also highlighted the role of the Security Operation Centre (SOC) in strengthening cybersecurity.
Through the SOC, cyber threats are being continuously monitored and addressed, while initiatives are underway to bring additional systems under its coverage.
“Firewall modernisation has been completed, with the progress rate reaching 100 percent, while the Security Operation Centre is providing protection against cyber threats,” the report said.
NTMC has also taken measures to strengthen information security through its own data centre.
According to the report, the centre is ensuring secure information exchange, while the modernisation of the firewall has already been completed.
Another key initiative is the establishment of a backup system for the data centre.
The system is being introduced to ensure high availability of critical data-centre systems and protect important information from possible disruptions or system failures.
The report said installation of the backup system for NTMC’s own data-centre systems is currently underway, with the aim of ensuring uninterrupted availability of the systems.
The cybersecurity initiatives are part of the government’s broader commitments to strengthen law enforcement and national security under the BNP’s electoral pledges.
The measures are expected to enhance cyber threat detection, safeguard sensitive information and improve the resilience of critical digital infrastructure.
