The Malaysia Cybersecurity Act 2024 (Act), effective August 26, 2024, represents a landmark legislation designed to ensure the secure utilization of digital technology and tools while strengthening the country's security posture against evolving cybersecurity risks.
The Act establishes a National Cyber Security Committee. It appoints the Chief Executive of the National Cyber Security Agency (NACSA) to oversee the implementation of cybersecurity policies, coordinate national efforts against cybersecurity threats, and ensure compliance. It also designates certain computers or computer systems as National Critical Information Infrastructure (NCII) and requires organizations to report incidents, conduct audits, and implement cybersecurity measures.
The Act applies extraterritorially and introduces licensing for cybersecurity service providers to protect Malaysia's digital infrastructure. It also provides detailed noncompliance penalties and enforcement mechanisms to align with international standards while responding to the specific challenges faced by Malaysian individuals, businesses, and government entities. Thus, this legislation underscores Malaysia’s commitment to strengthening cyber resilience and fostering a secure digital ecosystem.
