     The Cyber Security Professional Awards (CSPA) 2023 presentation ceremony was successfully concluded today (February 29), with a total of 52 winners and organisations commended for their outstanding achievements in the cyber security field.
      
     Led by the Cyber Security and Technology Crime Bureau of the Hong Kong Police Force with the Government Computer Emergency Response Team Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Computer Emergency Response Team Coordination Centre as co-orgnanisers, the award scheme aims at motivating cyber security personnel to enhance their professional capabilities, promote innovation, and encourage the use of technology to prevent cyber attacks, thereby continuously improving cyber security level.
      
     The Commissioner of Police, Mr Siu Chak-yee, said that with the promotion of innovation and technology development by the Government while cyber security incidents and technology crimes are increasing continuously, the society needs more talents to safeguard cyber security. The award scheme not only recognises cyber security professionals from various sectors, but also provides a platform for them to exchange their knowledge and valuable experience.
      
     Meanwhile, the ceremony also featured the establishment of the Cyber Security Action Task Force (CSATF), laying an important milestone for the collaboration between public and private institutions. The CSATF brings together the collective expertise and diversified intelligence of both sides. Led by the Force, it gathers nine leading cyber security firms worldwide. Through rapid exchange of cyber intelligence and sharing of professional knowledge, the Task Force aims to enhance the ability to cope with cyber threats in the future.
      
     The CSPA scheme was first launched in 2016 to recognise cyber security personnel from major sectors in Hong Kong. Officiating guests at the ceremony today included the Commissioner of Police, Mr Siu Chak-yee; the Government Chief Information Officer, Mr Tony Wong; and the Chief Digital Officer of the Hong Kong Productivity Council, Mr Edmond Lai.
