Summary
ASEAN-Japan Cybersecurity Capacity Building Centre (AJCCBC) was setup in Bangkok in 2018 with the financial support of the Japanese government to enhance the capacity of cybersecurity experts and specialists in the 10 ASEAN countries with the aim to effectively protect government systems and critical information infrastructure. Government officials and critical information infrastructure operators from the ASEAN member states, especially network administrators, will participate in the three courses current offered: (1) Cyber Defense Exercise with Recurrence (CYDER), (2) Hands-on Forensics and (3) Hands-on Malware Analysis.

Aim
The aim of the project was to enhance the capacity for cybersecurity in ASEAN member states (AMS).
Context
The Government of Japan started funding support for the ASEAN-Japan Cybersecurity Capacity Building Centre (AJCCBC) under the guidance of TELMIN/SOM in 2017 through the Japanese-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF 2.0.).
As the world becomes more interconnected and more devices are linked to the Internet, maintaining a safe and secure environment for citizens and businesses is an enormous challenge for governments, especially when cyber criminals constantly deploy innovative malicious tools to attack unsuspecting targets around the world. Moreover, the shortage of competent cybersecurity experts in the public and critical information infrastructure (CII) sectors further increases cybersecurity risk and exposes nations to potential cyber-attacks that could severely impact social and economic well-being.
AJCCBC is continuing its mission from 2023–2027 with the support of ASEAN and Government of Japan, implemented by Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and NCSA of Thailand under the name “Project for Enhancing ASEAN-Japan Capacity Building Programme for Cybersecurity and Trusted Digital Services”, which was started in March 2023, see Project for Enhancing ASEAN-Japan Capacity Building Program for Cybersecurity and Trusted Digital Services – ASEAN-Japan Cybersecurity Capacity Building Centre (AJCCBC) – Phase 2 – Cybil Portal
Outcomes
The project (2018–2023) was successfully implemented by ETDA of Thailand.
