PARIS LA DÉFENSE, HONG KONG, 11 May 2017. Thales inaugurated its fifth Cybersecurity Operation Centre (CSOC) in Hong Kong, a real control tower to fight cyber-attacks.
With the new Hong Kong CSOC, Thales can respond to the increased cyber-threat addressing organisations such as Banking & Finance institutions, Government Agencies, critical infrastructure operators and multinational enterprises located in Asia.
From this operation centre, Thales provides state-of-the-art 24/7 cyber surveillance services in order to guarantee the performance, continuity and security of critical information systems. The Thales CSOC provides cyber-risk prevention, threat anticipation, detection of security incidents and ultra-fast reaction against cyber-attacks.
