About the event

Cyber threats in Malaysia are intensifying. Despite ransomware attacks increasing by 78% in late 2024, only 4% of organisations achieved “Mature” cybersecurity readiness, highlighting a pressing resilience gap.

With the Cyber Security Act 2024 enforced, NCII sectors face stricter compliance, AI-driven threats, talent shortages, and complex systems requiring more robust cybersecurity strategies.

CISO Malaysia 2026 returns at a crucial time, uniting top cybersecurity and risk leaders to share strategies on AI defence, resilience, compliance, and talent—empowering organisations to face 2026’s evolving challenges. Now in its fourth year, the event remains a key platform for shaping future cybersecurity practices.

Key Themes

• AI-driven risk & defence: Navigating both AI-powered threats and AI-enabled defences, such as intelligent detection and orchestration.
• Policy, regulation & compliance: Operationalising the Cyber Security Act to secure NCII sectors and strengthen governance through collaboration.
• Resilient security architecture: Designing scalable, secure-by-design architectures that support agility and long-term cyber resilience.
• Cyber talent & culture: Bridging the talent gap with upskilling, behavioural adoption, and embedding security across organizational culture.
