HCM CITY – Many international technology corporations are offering to review businesses’ network security after Vietnam Airlines was hacked recently. CMC Telecom, a distributor for many multinational technology corporations like IBM, Cisco, Dell, Microsoft, Oracle, EMC, Diebold, VmWare, will soon help companies review security gaps in their information technology administration and suggest ways to protect themselves from network attacks. “We will provide professional information about network security for businesses and comprehensive methods to protect their database, applications and information technology infrastructure,” Đặng Tùng Sơn, deputy director of CMC Telecom, told Đầu tư (Việt Nam Investment Review) newspaper. “Using software without copyright quickly spreads viruses and malware to the community.”Vũ Minh Trí, general director of Microsoft Việt Nam, said businesses should improve their awareness of copyright-protected software. According to statistics from the Việt Nam Computer Emergency Response Teams, Việt Nam suffered 31,500 network attacks last year.
