According to the reports of major cybersecurity research companies, Mongolia is consistently ranked among the top 10 countries that are most vulnerable to cyber-attacks. This is not a good thing. For example, last year, more than 750 Chinese citizens in a hacking group were found in Mongolia to have carried out cyber-attacks on other parts of the world. Mongolia is doing some important activities to identify, prevent and prevent cyber-attacks.”
