Taiwan Reported 906 PRC-Linked Cyberattack Cases in 2024

NSB says PRC-linked cyberattack cases rose from 752 in 2023 to 906 in 2024.

What the Data Shows

Taiwan’s cyberattack count puts digital pressure into a measurable security frame. The NSB reported 906 PRC-linked cases in 2024, up from 752 in 2023, with government agencies accounting for more than 80% of cases. Sector growth rates for telecommunications, transport and defence supply chains show that the pressure was not evenly distributed.
