NS Knowledge Café
At the invitation of the Police College (College), the National Security Department (NSD) joined the Knowledge Management (KM) Championship Scheme in July and organised the first National Security (NS) Knowledge Café at the Police Headquarters on August 5. The talk was also broadcast online via video conferencing to the College, the Police Sports and Recreation Club, the New Territories South and the New Territories North Regional Headquarters. Over 600 officers participated.
In his opening address, Assistant Commissioner (NS) (2) and KM Champion (NS) Kwok Ka-chuen mentioned that the application of technology has become a part of people’s lives and work. However, amid the complex and volatile geopolitics, technological domains involving data, network and artificial intelligence (AI) have been incorporated into the major fields under A Holistic Approach to National Security. He called on officers to heighten their vigilance in safeguarding national security while making good use of information technology (IT).
Themed “How the Application of Information Technology Impacts National Security”, the talk was delivered by a Senior Superintendent of the NSD. It covered seven key topics, namely A Holistic Approach to National Security, the three pillars of information security, trends in cybersecurity threats, human-centric attacks methods, information security considerations in AI applications, IT procurement and national security, as well as relevant policies and guidelines. The NSD will continue to hold Knowledge Café sessions on different themes, and upload the relevant information to P-TV and KM webpages to strengthen the national security awareness and response capabilities of the Force.
