The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) launched ‘Ask Amna’, the first digital assistant for cybersecurity awareness in Bahrain, during an event at Marassi Galleria attended by NCSC chief executive officer Shaikh Salman bin Mohammed Al Khalifa, officials and specialists in cybersecurity awareness.
The AI-powered digital assistant provides practical guidance to help users address cybersecurity risks and challenges in their daily lives. Users can ask cybersecurity related questions, learn about digital risks and security best practices, and check the reliability of links before opening them.
‘Ask Amna’ forms part of the ‘Bu Rashid Family’ initiative, the first AI-powered Bahraini digital family for cybersecurity awareness, launched by NCSC under the slogan “Cyber Awareness, A Way of Life”.
The initiative uses characters and everyday situations to simplify cybersecurity concepts for different age groups and segments of society.
‘Ask Amna’ is available through NCSC’s official website, providing users with interactive access to cybersecurity guidance and safe digital practices.
