Information technology is developing rapidly, and the overall business environment is changing quickly. In addition to diversifying our business operations, digital transformation is also accelerated to provide more complete and convenient data services. However, this is accompanied by increased information security risks. Therefore, Chunghwa Post established an Information Security Officer (concurrently held by the vice president or an individual of equivalent level), Cyber Security Office, and the Information Security & Personal Data Protection Committee to coordinate the promotion of information security and personal information solutions and maintain information security and the normal operation of information security and the personal information management system to ensure that our core cyber communication system can achieve the goals of confidentiality, integrity and availability, thereby safeguarding the customer privacy and reducing security risks.
