The Ministry of Public Security announced the launching of the National Data Center on February 25.

The Government had assigned the Ministry of Public Security to build, manage, exploit and operate the center.

The center is aimed at integrating, synchronizing, storing, sharing, analyzing, and coordinating data from State agencies in compliance with legal regulations.

It will serve as a comprehensive repository, consolidating population data and synthesizing information from national databases.

The data stored at the center will provide a fundamental foundation for delivering data-related services, policymaking, and building a digital society and economy.

The center will provide digital infrastructure for socio-political organizations, the national data system, and agencies that need to improve cyber security.

The Prime Minister last September issued Directive No 32/CT-TTg to accelerate the National Data Center project which had been approved under the Government’s Resolution No 175/NQ-CP, dated October 30, 2023.
