The government has ordered staff of more than 300 departments to reset passwords immediately and inspect 30,000 systems to prevent further state data leaks.
Government spokeswoman Rachada Dhnadirek said on Wednesday the cabinet had approved three measures proposed by the National Cyber Security Committee (NCSC) to strengthen protection against cyber threats and reduce the risk of personal data breaches.
The first measure, Force Reset Password, requires civil servants and staff across more than 300 departments to change their passwords immediately. The move is intended to prevent attackers from using previously leaked credentials to impersonate legitimate users and gain access to government systems.
