Comprehensive Ransomware Mitigation Strategies for Malaysia

This whitepaper has been designed for Malaysian organisations and explains how they can strategise and act to shore up defences against increasingly common ransomware attacks, as Malaysia’s Cyber Security Act comes into force.

This whitpaper includes guidance for government agencies on how to best protect against various cyber threats, with a focus on the implications of the Cyber Security Act. The guidance also applies to the 11 defined NCII sectors, which include not just government but also banking and finance, transportation, defence, information, healthcare and more.

By developing the right capabilities and practices, government and private organisations significantly strengthen their security posture around data protection and disaster recovery (DR), and greatly reduce attack vectors from both internal and external threats.

Malaysia’s Cyber Security Act establishes clear duties for NCII entities, which include implementing measures and conducting security audits and risk assessments. Cyber security incidents are also to be reported to the National Cyber Security Agency (NACSA). This means developing a resilient and secure cyber environment, as the country seeks to achieve its digitalisation ambitions. Key to this is ensuring that important government, business, and critical infrastructure services continue to be available to citizens despite growing cyber threats.

In addition, this whitepaper will cover several other aspects that make up hardened backup solutions.
