It will be a firm that undertakes the task of implementation and will provide support to the CBRT in this context. HAVELSAN will also be responsible for the Digital Turkish Lira Development Project in the fields of cyber security and data analysis.

SAFETY TESTS WILL ALSO BE DONE

The project aims to provide multiple environments for the participants. It prepares the environment in which the development, control, simulation and monitoring tools are presented to the project participants. Again at HAVELSAN, attack detection, case monitoring and analysis, vulnerability testing, security analysis, leak detection and penetration testing are performed. As part of the first phase of the pilot studies, a prototype of the Turkish Lira Digital Network will be deployed at the CBRT to conduct pilot tests for technical personnel for a certain period of time. After the establishment of the Limited Digital Turkish Lira Network, the participating shareholder organizations aim to process members' digital currency transactions and measure system performance based on user experience. In the project, it is planned to use the Turkish digital lira as a pilot application for the members of the organization that makes up the commercial fleet, and to provide the employees with the opportunity to purchase goods through a certain digital wallet.
