"According to Thuy, in the first six months of 2025, there was a surge in ransomware attacks targeting systems in the energy sector, healthcare, government agencies, and recently even press and information agencies."
"He believes that developing the national standard on cybersecurity TCVN 14423:2025 is a core step in state management, providing both guidance and protection for critical information systems."
""Standards are not just for inspection. More importantly, they guide, instruct, and help organizations secure their infrastructure," Thuy emphasized."
"Reports showed that cyberattacks to healthcare systems occurred at An Giang central general hospital, where the virtualized server system was hit by hackers, encrypting all data and halting operations."
Ransomware activity surged in the first half of 2025, with attacks targeting energy, healthcare, government, and press and information agencies. Multiple hospital breaches in Vietnam have been reported since 2024, including an incident that encrypted virtualized servers and halted operations at An Giang Central General Hospital. The national cybersecurity standard TCVN 14423:2025 is identified as a core state management step intended to provide guidance and protection for critical information systems. Standards are framed as tools to guide, instruct, and help organizations secure their infrastructure rather than solely serving inspection purposes. The responsible individuals or groups for the hospital attack were not identified.
