Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 22 September 2021
28. Deputy Imelda Munster asked the Minister for Finance if his Department’s IT infrastructure is monitored for security breaches on a 24/7 basis; the guidance provided from Government on same; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45310/21]
View answerI wish to confirm to the Deputy that my Department’s IT Infrastructure has a breadth of infrastructure monitoring in place and provides a 24/7 service, however for operational security reasons, my Department is not in a position to provide further details of its cyber security systems as it would be inappropriate to disclose information that may in any way assist those with malicious intent.
Guidance from Government in relation to ICT security is a matter for the National Cyber Security Centre.
