The Cyber Security Bill 2024, passed by Malaysia's Dewan Negara in April 2024, aims to bolster the nation's cybersecurity. It requires entities managing critical national infrastructures — such as government, banking, transportation, defence, and healthcare — to adopt rigorous measures, standards, and processes to mitigate cyber threats. The legislation utilises a risk-based approach to protect against current and future technologies, including blockchain, and is crucial for safeguarding Malaysia’s vital sectors and enhancing cyber resilience.
