FAQ
Does Thailand have a national cyber threat level?
No published national cyber threat level was found for Thailand (checked 7 Nov 2026). NCSA and ThaiCERT send alerts to agencies and critical infrastructure; the National Security Council said on 3 Nov it has a cyber response plan.
Which organisations in Thailand confirmed cyber incidents recently?
9 incidents confirmed since January 2026: Opposition leaders (People's Party, Democrats), Fastwork, Department of Land Transport, Government agencies in 19 ministries and the Office of the Prime Minister, Thailand Securities Depository (TSD Investor Portal), Online game top-up and mobile credit platform (unnamed), Council of Engineers Thailand, Schools in Mae Ai district, Chiang Mai and 16 government agency websites.
Which Thailand organisations appear on ransomware or leak sites?
33 claims, not confirmed by the organisations: Bangkok Post, Xspring Capital, Wellington College International School Bangkok, Thai Ha PCL, Museum Siam, Royal Thai Air Force, Thai Lion Air and PTT Oil and Retail Business (OR) and others.
What counts as a confirmed incident?
The organisation, a regulator, the police or a minister has said something happened, as reported by a named outlet. Everything else is listed as claimed.
Why list leak-site claims at all?
Ransomware and extortion crews post victims on leak sites before anyone confirms. The list shows what attackers say. Treat it as a lead and check with the organisation.
Is the map a live attack feed?
No. It counts incidents and claims reported in 2026. Live attack maps from security vendors show scanning traffic hitting their sensors, which does not mean a place was attacked.
How often is it updated?
By hand when a national level changes or a notable incident is reported. The date is shown in the header.
Sources: official statements and regional press, including Bernama, The Star, Malay Mail, CNN Indonesia and Newsbytes.PH; leak-site claims from public ransomware trackers. Each entry links its source.
