Abstract
Establishing the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) in 2016 is a monumental step towards the long-term goal of a secure and technologically capable Philippines. Relatively, this study aimed to provide valuable insights into cybersecurity preparedness in the Philippines central technology agency. These insights would benefit the DICTs mission to protect critical digital assets and contribute to the broader discourse on enhancing national cybersecurity resilience in an increasingly interconnected digital world. The study explored the challenges and limitations faced by the DICT in achieving its cybersecurity objectives and examined factors such as budget constraints, the evolving threat landscape, and the ever-increasing complexity of modern information systems. It also identified areas for potential improvement and suggested recommendations to enhance the DICTs cybersecurity posture.
