Mr. Lam said the mission and vision of the association should not only generate economic profits, protect the interests of its members, but also aim for a higher goal, which is to become the primary driving force of the cause of national construction and defense.
It should strive to build and develop Vietnam's cybersecurity industry, establish a high-value cybersecurity market on the international map, create corporations and companies with globally-recognized cybersecurity capabilities. This transformation should shift the focus from outsourcing and agency work to becoming technology and product owners, he said.
