Bangkok, November 10th, 2026 – True Digital Cybersecurity is urging Thai organizations to strengthen their defenses against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and evolving hacker tactics. Recent attack patterns reveal that even when security systems successfully block certain threats, hackers continue to adapt their techniques, attempting to gain access to critical systems through legitimate user accounts and trusted connection channels. These tactics pose a risk of escalating into attacks on core servers and backup systems, potentially disrupting business operations.
Cyber threats are also expanding beyond data theft and ransomware attacks to target Operational Technology (OT) systems that control physical operations, including machinery and critical infrastructure. Such attacks could potentially compromise public safety. True Digital Cybersecurity emphasizes that organizations must accelerate their transition toward Cyber Resilience. While no security system can prevent every attack, organizations must be able to maintain visibility, detect threats early, respond promptly, and recover effectively to restore business operations as quickly as possible. This approach should be supported by the adoption of AI to enhance threat detection and response capabilities.
Ms.Tithirat Siripattanalert, Managing Director of True Digital Cybersecurity, said that “Thailand is facing continuously increasing cyber risks. Thai organizations experience an average of more than 3,200 cyberattacks per organization per week, approximately 164% higher than the global average. In the first quarter of 2026, Thailand was also ranked among the world’s top 10 countries most targeted by ransomware attacks. These figures reflect how cyber threats have evolved beyond data theft. They can disrupt business operations and affect people’s everyday lives. The manufacturing sector, in particular, accounts for approximately 37% of ransomware attack targets in Thailand. Other vulnerable sectors include critical infrastructure such as public, education, energy, healthcare, and financial services, as well as SMEs, which may be exploited as entry points for attacks on larger organizations. This situation highlights the urgent need for Thai organizations to move beyond traditional prevention-focused cybersecurity toward continuous monitoring, threat detection, and response. A Security Operations Center (SOC) plays a vital role in detecting and analyzing threats. By integrating Agentic AI, organizations can significantly enhance the speed of threat detection within their SOC operations, covering IT, OT, and cloud environments. Combined with the expertise of cybersecurity professionals, this approach enables organizations to minimize the impact of attacks and maintain business continuity.”
Blocking an Attack Does Not Mean Being Secure: Overlooked Cyber Risks Facing Thai Organizations
Today’s cyberattack patterns demonstrate that hackers may exploit legitimate user accounts, trusted connection channels, or inadequately secured devices as gateways into corporate networks and critical systems. Even when security tools successfully detect and block certain attacks, hackers may adapt their techniques and continue attempting to access core servers and backup systems. A successful breach of these critical assets could lead to widespread business disruption.
Organizations should therefore strengthen access controls, implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and continuously monitor IT systems, Operational Technology (OT), and cloud environments. They should also maintain backup systems that are regularly tested through actual recovery exercises, conduct incident response drills, and pay close attention to risks associated with business partners and third-party service providers.
Cyber Resilience: A Critical Path Forward for Thai Organizations When Prevention Alone Is No Longer Enough
Ms. Tithirat further explained that as cyberattacks become increasingly sophisticated, organizations can no longer guarantee protection against every possible threat. However, they can minimize damage and improve their ability to resume business operations quickly by adopting a Cyber Resilience approach—the ability to withstand, respond to, and recover from cyber incidents. Cyber Resilience rests on four key pillars:
Gain Visibility: Establish comprehensive visibility across IT, OT, and cloud environments to identify potential risks and vulnerabilities.
Detect Early: Implement 24/7 security monitoring and leverage AI to analyze unusual behaviors and identify potential threats as quickly as possible.
Respond Promptly: Develop incident response plans that are regularly tested and supported by clearly defined decision-making processes to ensure effective action when incidents occur.
Recover Effectively: Maintain backup systems isolated from primary networks and conduct regular recovery tests to ensure that data and systems can be restored when needed.
At the same time, organizations must prioritize access control, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and cybersecurity awareness among employees. Having security tools or backup systems alone does not guarantee that a business can resume normal operations after an attack. The key is to ensure preparedness across technology, people, and processes, enabling organizations to manage unexpected incidents and recover effectively.
AI vs. AI: Elevating SOC Operations with Agentic AI, Combining Global Technologies with Thai Expertise
As hackers increasingly leverage AI to accelerate and expand their attack capabilities, relying solely on human resources for continuous security monitoring may no longer be sufficient. In response, True Digital Cybersecurity is advancing its Security Operations Center (SOC) capabilities through the integration of Agentic AI. This technology helps filter and analyze large volumes of security alerts, detect anomalous behaviors, and support faster threat response. Cybersecurity experts continue to play a critical role in conducting in-depth investigations, assessing risks, and making decisions when dealing with complex situations. Building on its extensive experience in cybersecurity services and customer support, True Digital Cybersecurity combines its understanding of organizational systems and the challenges facing Thai businesses with technologies from global partners and a team of Thai cybersecurity specialists who understand local business environments and national security requirements.
The company provides 24/7 security monitoring and comprehensive cybersecurity services, covering every stage of the security lifecycle—from risk assessment and prevention to detection, incident response, and system recovery. Its services span IT, OT, and cloud environments, helping Thai organizations respond to rapidly evolving cyber threats and maintain business continuity more effectively.
