Today, an International Scientific and Practical Conference on the topic: "Cybersecurity: Organizational and Legal Processes, International and National Standards, Problems, Threats, Challenges, and Their Impact on National Security in Central Asian Countries" has started in Bishkek.
Leading specialists from various corners of the region have gathered for the event. One of the notable participants is Kainar Erbolat Yerzhanuly, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Professor, who holds the position of First Deputy Head of the Aktobe Law Institute of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan named after M. Bukenbaev.

In an interview with the "Kabar" agency, he emphasized the importance of cooperation between neighboring countries.

“This conference is of great significance. Kyrgyzstan is a strategic ally and partner for us. Our countries are united not only by culture but also by issues of national security. In the current conditions, cyber threats represent one of the main dangers to stability. The importance of this event lies in the opportunity to exchange experiences and implement best practices from our colleagues from Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and other countries,” the professor emphasized.

A key achievement of the joint work has been the strengthening of ties between educational institutions of law enforcement agencies.

“I want to note that our Ministry of Internal Affairs Institute has signed three memorandums of cooperation with leading universities in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. This interaction will help us achieve the set goals within the framework of the overall security strategy,” added Kainar Erbolat Yerzhanuly.
The expert expressed confidence that further cooperation will be successful and will create a reliable shield against cybercrime in Central Asia.
