cybersecurity attack and defense drills this year by including more critical infrastructure (CI) operators.<\/p>\n<p>The government has designated CIs for energy, water resources, telecommunication, transportation, banking and finance, emergency services, hospitals, science parks, and industrial parks.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Regulations for Classification of Cyber Security Responsibility Levels (\u8cc7\u901a\u5b89\u5168\u8cac\u4efb\u7b49\u7d1a\u5206\u7d1a\u8fa6\u6cd5), \u201cClass A\u201d CI operators are those whose information and communication systems, if disrupted or compromised,

6 percent increase from 2024, it said, citing a National Security Bureau report.<\/p>\n<p>Other bureau reports showed that on top of intensive cyberattacks targeting the nation\u2019s telecommunications and transportation systems, and defense supply chains since 2024, there was also a significant increase in breaches of Taiwan\u2019s energy infrastructure, emergency services and hospitals last year, the administration said.<\/p>\n<p>That shows China has switched from data theft to disrupting&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a
