AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Cybersecurity: A former U.S. Air Force security specialist says crews in Afghanistan bought USB drives from local markets and used the same sticks across unclassified and classified systems, creating a malware risk for mission networks and aircraft. Digital Identity: Pakistan plans to switch to chip-enabled e-passports within a month, aiming to make forgery harder; existing passports remain valid until expiry. Digital Payments: Mastercard and BankIslami are expanding debit, credit and business card services in Pakistan, including Sharia-compliant options and a unified rewards platform.
