Minister of Digital Economy and Society Chaichanak Chidchob recently met with Apple representatives to discuss the cyber threat alerts sent to users worldwide and how to protect people in Thailand.

During the discussion, Apple clarified that receiving a threat alert does not mean a device has been successfully compromised. Mentions of Pegasus in the notifications were only a familiar example of advanced “zero-click” spyware (malicious software that can infect a device without the user clicking anything), used to explain the potential level of the threat.

● Concerned users are advised to:

○ Submit their system logs to the National Cyber Security Agency (NCSA) for verification.

○ Enable Lockdown Mode on their devices.

Furthermore, the Ministry is expanding its collaborative framework by meeting with telecom operators, software developers, and hardware platforms to establish a unified national defense strategy against evolving cyber threats.
