ABL Malaysia was recently invited to attend and participate in a town hall organised by the National Cyber Security Agency (NACSA) of Malaysia<\/a>, to discuss the country\u2019s Cybersecurity Bill 2024<\/a>. The NACSA is part of the National Security Council in the Prime Minister\u2019s Department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The town hall addressed highlights of the bill, including the formulation of Cybersecurity Legislation, which would represent a pivotal step in mitigating and preventing future cyber threats. The proposed legislation aims to create a legal framework that complements existing laws, ensuring a comprehensive and effective approach to cybersecurity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the strategy, the NACSA also pledges to enforce the new legislation as it comes to fruition. Another important topic for discussion was how to address the challenge of skills shortage among cybersecurity professionals, with an anticipated need for at least 25,000 experts by 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We at ABL were really pleased to be invited to join the discussion with the NACSA and we welcome this important step in shoring up the resilience of Malaysia’s digital infrastructure for the future. As technological advances in automation and digitisation of offshore and energy assets continue at pace, we are well aware of the increasing risk profile to rigs, ports, ships and other marine infrastructure. A consistent plan for the long-term risk management is therefore, critical.”<\/p>\nAmit Kulkarni, Rig Inspection Manager, ABL Asia Pacific <\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

ABL \u2013 the energy and marine consultants \u2013 specialises in cybersecurity risk analysis as well as proposing risk mitigation strategies, for marine and energy infrastructure, notably rigs, both onshore and offshore<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
