Taiwan Proposes New Military Cyber Unit with US Expertise for Threat Detection
Taiwan plans to establish a new military cyber threat-hunting unit with a proposed budget of NT 95.93 million (US$3.03 million) as part of its 2027 defence plan. The unit aims to proactively detect and remove hidden cyber intrusions by analyzing network activity and system logs. The programme includes advanced training with overseas specialists, likely from the United States, and may feature exercises simulating real cyber conflict scenarios. The proposal awaits approval from Taiwan's legislature.
