Securing Malaysia’s Financial Future Today

About this event

Malaysia’s banking and financial services industry (BFSI) continues its rapid modernization in response to domestic and international forces. At the forefront of this industry transformation are technologies including cloud applications, open banking initiatives, and fintech innovations.

However, the transformation has also exposed industry players to the commercialization of cyber threats, particularly ransomware, which has led to a surge in cyberattacks, making the sector increasingly vulnerable.

The financial ramifications of cyberattacks are severe, with recovery costs for financial institutions averaging US$2.23 million, highlighting the urgency for effective recovery strategies. As Malaysia’s BFSI sector navigates this complex landscape, prioritizing cybersecurity resilience is crucial for safeguarding critical systems and maintaining operational integrity.

CIOs, CISOs, Heads of IT Infrastructure are invited to attend Securing Malaysia’s financial future today – an executive forum, co-hosted by Veeam, AWS and FutureCIO, focusing on business recovery and resilience in the BFSI sector. The forum will provide not only valuable insights into regulatory and technology trends, but proven best practices for enhancing cybersecurity measures, and ensure continuity in the face of escalating cyber threats.

Who Should Attend?
