Dr. Ken Ashigbey<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Cyber Security Authority (CSA) has urged multinational firms operating in the country to continue to comply with the laws of the land.<\/p>\n<p>A joint statement signed by Director-General, Cyber Security Authority, Dr. Albert Antwi-Boasiako and Chief Executive Officer, Ghana Chamber of Telecommunications, Ing. Dr. Ken Ashigbey, said the move was as a result of the outcome of a deliberation between CSA and the Ghana Chamber of Telecommunications to provide clarity on the Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) registration process, compliance with regulations on the licensing of Cybersecurity Service Providers (CSPs), accreditation of Cyber security Establishments (CEs) and Cyber security Professionals (CPs).<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Antwi-Boasiako said the move by the Authority in the exercise of its regulatory mandate, especially the development of the framework for which members are expected to share information as a requirement of the development of a legislative instrument (LI), would be backed by science and subsequently cater for the protection of Ghana\u2019s CIIs\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He, therefore, assured the Chamber of the Authority\u2019s readiness to engage stakeholders to address concerns, adding that the position of the law will not be compromised in the consultative process. He, however, cautioned that any posturing of non-compliance by firms and institutions will not be tolerated.<\/p>\n<p>The move, he said was also within the context of the larger African Continental Free Trade Area (ACFTA) objective of promoting the development of the cybersecurity industry by ensuring that cybersecurity service providers and professionals operate with best practices in support of protecting the Ghanaian digital ecosystem, the regulations of the CSPs, CEs and CPs.<\/p>\n<p>Ing. Dr. Ashigbey said in an era where trust was gradually receding, any attempt at building it would be supported by members of the Chamber.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe \u00a0therefore, recognize the importance of securing the telecommunications sector-especially systems designated as critical information infrastructure (CII) pursuant to Section 35 of the Cybersecurity Act, 2020 (Act 1038) and endorsed the ongoing licensing and accreditation process as a step in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Albert Antwi-Boasiako, Ing.
