Privacy Protection and Cybersecurity Overview

Why is this Important?

In an era where digital technology plays a crucial role across all industries, the energy and utilities sector has rapidly embraced digital transformation. The integration of automation systems in energy management not only improves operational efficiency and reduces costs but also enhances the ability to meet consumer demands more effectively. However, stepping into the digital world comes with new challenges, especially in terms of cybersecurity. As a result, businesses must elevate their security measures to safeguard critical data and maintain cybersecurity, which directly impacts the trust of all stakeholders involved.

EGCO Group places great importance on establishing clear data security measures. The company has updated its policies to adhere to laws, such as the Cybersecurity Act B.E. 2562 (2019) and the Personal Data Protection Act B.E. 2562 (2019). This is in accordance with international standards based on three core components: confidentiality, data integrity, and availability. These components cover the protection of data from potential threats arising from the integration of new technologies into the energy infrastructure. The goal is to prevent and manage any risks that may arise. Additionally, EGCO Group conducts annual training for employees to raise awareness of cybersecurity threats and has established a task force to monitor and evaluate operations related to personal data protection, ensuring that all processes are thorough and in compliance with legal frameworks.
