He added that upgrades are being carried out to provide resilient digital public infrastructure.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Member, the week was required to ensure full protection and integrity before restoration. We recognize the need for robust backups and resilience—that is why LGC 2.5 and a second cloud are being procured. Financial crimes often occur at the citizen level due to poor practices (e.g., sharing PINs); awareness programmes are being undertaken by CBSL, SLCERT and the Ministry. We are executing the necessary upgrades to deliver resilient digital public infrastructure.
