Cyber Security Act, 2026 (Act No. 81 of 2026), s. 9 · Read the law's page

  • Without delay after a cyber incident occurs, inform the National Computer Emergency Response Team the National Cyber Security Agency maintains; the Act names no fixed number of hours or days for this notification.
  • This binds a government, private, or autonomous organization or institution in Bangladesh, the Act's own general categories for essentially any actor rather than a licensed or sector-specific status, so an ordinary software distributor or app operator falls within it without needing a critical-infrastructure designation.
