InsiderSecurity Joins CyberSecurity Malaysia’s Strategic Partner Program to Strengthen National Cyber Resilience

KUALA LUMPUR, October 17, 2025 – InsiderSecurity, an award-winning ASEAN cybersecurity software company, has been officially registered as a Strategic Partner under the CyberSecurity Malaysia Collaboration Partner (CSM-CP) Program, marking a major step in advancing Malaysia’s cyber resilience and strengthening public–private cooperation in digital security innovation.

The collaboration between InsiderSecurity and CyberSecurity Malaysia (CSM)—the national cybersecurity specialist agency under the Ministry of Digital—aims to build cyber capabilities, enhance national defence against evolving threats, and accelerate knowledge exchange across Malaysia’s cybersecurity ecosystem.

Advancing Malaysia’s Cybersecurity Strategy 2025–2030

The partnership aligns with the government’s Cyber Security Strategy 2025–2030, which focuses on transitioning Malaysia from a posture of protection to pre-emption, and driving a secure digital economy through AI adoption, enhancement of the Cyber Security Act 2024, and the development of local cybersecurity talent.

“We are pleased to welcome InsiderSecurity as our strategic CSM-CP partner in advancing Malaysia’s cybersecurity ecosystem,” said Dato’ Dr. Haji Amirudin Bin Abdul Wahab, CEO of CyberSecurity Malaysia. “This initiative strengthens our collective efforts to support the Cyber Security Act 2024 and the Malaysia Cyber Security Strategy 2025–2030, as we transition the nation towards a pre-emptive cybersecurity posture. Together, we aim to safeguard Malaysia’s digital economy and build a secure, resilient future for our citizens and enterprises.”

Building Local Cyber Capabilities

Under the partnership, InsiderSecurity will leverage its advanced data security and threat detection technologies to bolster Malaysia’s cyber defences while supporting national initiatives in skills development and public–private collaboration.

“We are honoured to be registered as a strategic partner to CyberSecurity Malaysia,” said Leikanthan Ramalingam, Vice President, Enterprise Sales & Partnerships at InsiderSecurity. “Our solutions are built specifically for ASEAN’s cybersecurity needs, backed by exceptional local support. This reflects our long-term commitment to equipping Malaysia with the tools, talent, and technologies to face tomorrow’s cyber threats.”

Formalised at CyberDSA 2025, where InsiderSecurity served as a Silver Sponsor, the announcement also coincides with the company’s establishment of a Malaysian engineering office. The new office will focus on product development, technical support, and capacity building, contributing to job creation and talent pipeline development for Malaysia’s cybersecurity workforce.

Empowering Enterprises with AI-Driven Cyber Defence

InsiderSecurity’s technology is deployed by government agencies and critical infrastructure operators across ASEAN. Its AI-powered cybersecurity solutions are designed to simplify threat detection and mitigate the region’s cybersecurity talent shortage, enabling faster and more accurate threat identification.

Two flagship products driving this mission are:

Database Activity Monitor – Detects and alerts on suspicious database activity in real time across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments. It helps organisations protect sensitive data, ensure compliance, and respond swiftly to potential breaches while reducing manual log analysis.

Microsoft 365 Data Security – Protects enterprises from cloud-based risks such as data leaks, over-sharing, or account compromise by continuously monitoring for suspicious access and exposure of sensitive documents.

Expanding Regional Footprint

InsiderSecurity’s expansion into Malaysia is part of its growing presence across the Asia-Pacific region. The company has been recognised among the Asia-Pacific High-Growth Companies 2025 by the Financial Times and listed in The Straits Times’ Singapore’s Fastest-Growing Companies 2025. It is also one of the first ASEAN cybersecurity firms to achieve CSA STAR Level 2 certification, the global gold standard for cloud security.

“By establishing a strong local presence, we aim to understand the unique challenges Malaysian organisations face and develop solutions tailored to their needs,” Leikanthan added. “This partnership reinforces our shared vision with CyberSecurity Malaysia—to build a secure, self-reliant digital nation.”
