He emphasized the increasing complexity of the cyber landscape as projected by the 2023 Global Cybersecurity Outlook. “It is of utmost importance for organizations to proactively address this complexity to establish a robust long-term cyber resilience framework and ensure uninterrupted business operations. As such, organizations should implement strategic cybersecurity measures to mitigate the impact of cyber-attacks, with a strong focus on response and recovery strategies. TechCreate’s influence extends to community contribution with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) for Academic, Research, and Development collaboration.
