HANOI, April 30 (Vietnam News/ANN): The Vietnam Ministry of Information and Communications (MIC) has urged all users to take measures to ensure cyber security, especially systems containing personal data and platforms in service of national digital transformation, during the National Reunification Day and May Day holidays which ends on Wednesday (May 3).

According to the ministry's e-newspaper Vietnamnet, IT experts said systems relating to finance and banking are the most vulnerable to cyber-attacks,as hackers would take advantage of security relaxations and reduced transactions during the holidays to carry out attacks on servers.
