The total value of online scams reported from 2021 until April 2024 is about RM3.81 billion, involving more than 95,800 people in Malaysia, Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo, adding that numbers could be higher due to unreported cases.
Gobind said his ministry plans to formulate a policy on quantum technology to strengthen personal data protection. The ministry will also look at data holistically to improve cyberinfrastructure’s resilience. All organisations must appoint a data protection officer following the recent amendments to the Personal Data Protection Bill, Gobind said, “The data protection officer is for organisations to oversee compliance with data protection laws, including data breach notifications, data user obligations and the secure transfer of personal data abroad.”
Gobind witnessed the signing of the MoU by Axiata group CEO Vivek Sood, Cybersecurity Malaysia CEO Datuk Amirudin Abdul Wahab and MDEC CEO Mahadhir Aziz at the Axiata Cyber Fusion Centre.
