Bitrace Honoured with Dual Recognitions at the Cyber Security Professional Awards 2025
The award presentation ceremony of the Cyber Security Professional Awards 2025, organised by the Hong Kong Police Force and co-organised by the Digital Policy Office and the Hong Kong Productivity Council, was held on 30 January. The ceremony recognised individuals and organisations that have made outstanding contributions to cybersecurity, in acknowledgement of their achievements in strengthening Hong Kong’s overall cyber defence capabilities.
In his address at the ceremony, Commissioner of Police Mr CHOW Yat-ming noted that cybersecurity is not merely an information technology issue, but one that directly affects social operations, economic development, and even national security. A robust, reliable, and highly resilient cybersecurity environment is a fundamental condition for supporting the sustainable development of innovation and technology, smart cities, and the digital economy.
