Vietnam has granted Starlink telecommunications and radio-frequency authorizations that enable permanent infrastructure deployment, with an initial cap of four gateway stations and up to 600,000 user terminals, according to state media cited by The Diplomat. The move supports rural connectivity and disaster resilience but raises governance, security, and misuse-mitigation requirements shaped by regional precedents.
A September 2025 joint advisory describes PRC state-sponsored cyber actors targeting global telecommunications and network edge infrastructure to sustain long-term access and enable broader intelligence collection. The guidance emphasizes exploitation of known vulnerabilities, router configuration persistence, and the need for enhanced monitoring and hardening of network devices and interconnections.
