RTAF Cyber Contest 2026: Championing Thailand's Cyber Defense

It was a remarkable privilege for our team to represent Level Five Group at the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) Cyber Contest 2026: one of Thailand's most prestigious platforms for national cyber defense excellence.

Fern Thavornnart and Arthitiya Ritthisit had the honor of attending as representatives of Level Five, and the experience reinforced exactly why this work matters.

A Platform Built for the Future

The RTAF Cyber Contest is more than a competition. It is a living demonstration of Thailand's growing strategic readiness in the digital domain, bringing together the nation's sharpest minds in cybersecurity to test their skills, push boundaries, and strengthen our collective defenses.

We extend our deepest gratitude to the Royal Thai Air Force for the warm invitation and for organizing such a high-caliber event. A special acknowledgement goes to Air Vice Marshal Surongkan Thaosan, whose visionary leadership has made this platform a beacon for cyber excellence in the region. Witnessing Thailand's national digital defense community in action was genuinely inspiring.

Level Five's Commitment to Thailand's Digital Resilience

Participating in events like the RTAF Cyber Contest reinforces our purpose at Level Five: to empower organizations across ASEAN with world-class innovation that protects critical infrastructure and ensures operational continuity.

Two solutions we're especially proud to bring to this mission:

• SSHepherd — eliminating open ports and drastically reducing attack surfaces, so networks stay protected against unauthorized access.
• UPA — delivering layered security capabilities that help organizations stay ahead of evolving threats.

As Thailand's digital landscape continues to grow, so does the importance of a resilient, well-defended infrastructure. We remain committed to supporting our partners, from government agencies to enterprise organizations, with the tools and expertise they need to stay secure.

Looking Ahead

The talent on display at the RTAF Cyber Contest 2026 is a clear signal: Thailand's cyber defense community is setting new standards in the global arena.

We look forward to continuing to grow alongside this community, supporting the next generation of cyber defenders with solutions that match the scale of the challenge ahead.
