On January 20, 2026, Sender Su, One of the founders of Wave Computing Novation Limited (“WCN”), participated in the Cybersecurity Symposium 2025, organized by the Digital Policy Office of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government.
This third edition of the symposium demonstrated significantly enhanced professionalism and depth compared to previous years. The featured presentations and panel discussions covered numerous cutting-edge cybersecurity terminologies and the latest industry developments, substantially increasing the event’s value for attendees.

The primary focus of this year’s symposium was undoubtedly the implementation of Hong Kong’s Protection of Critical Infrastructures (Computer Systems) Ordinance. To facilitate its smooth enforcement, the Office of the Commissioner of Critical Infrastructure (Computer-system Security) (OCCICS) has specifically drafted a Code of Practice for reference and compliance by relevant stakeholders. The Code is available at:

The sessions addressed current cybersecurity hot topics, including countering nation-state hackers in supply chain attacks, the critical role of executive leadership in cybersecurity practices, effective threat intelligence gathering, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) by both attackers and defenders, the tactics and activity trends of ransomware groups, post-quantum cryptography applications, IoT security, personal data privacy protection, and digital asset safeguarding.
Mr. Su has been in an information technology career for nearly three decades and is highly familiar with all the aforementioned topics. In particular, supply chain security, IoT security, and personal data privacy protection align precisely with the key objectives WCN successfully achieved for its clients throughout 2025. The company delivered an integrated suite of services—including penetration testing, risk assessments, source code audits, security remediation, and even business logic re-engineering—to comprehensively address these challenges.
However, the topic that resonated most deeply with Mr. Su was the role of senior leadership in cybersecurity practice. This is indeed a familiar refrain: as far back as two decades ago, during discussions on enterprise informatization, executive buy-in was already recognized as pivotal. Today, as the focus shifts to cybersecurity, it simply reflects a formerly peripheral aspect of enterprise IT governance moving center stage. Fundamentally, the core challenge remains unchanged across time:
It always comes down to people.
Precisely because of this, WCN is able to leverage Sender Su’s extensive hands-on experience to carefully select investment directions, thereby fulfilling its founding mission of actively supporting the digital transformation of Hong Kong’s traditional industries.
