Defending the Digital Frontier

As digital technologies rise and sensitive data increasingly goes online, the threat of cyberattacks grows. Predicted cybercrime costs for 2023 reach $8 trillion, spiking to $10.5 trillion by 2025.

Amidst this backdrop, we hear from Abbas Kudrati, Microsoft Asia’s Chief Cybersecurity Advisor. We shed light on the global and Malaysian cybersecurity situation, AI's pivotal role in security, and Microsoft's strategy in combating threats.

We’ll also be addressing the urgent issue of outdated software on over a million devices, elaborating on Microsoft's steps to mitigate a 78% surge in high-severity vulnerabilities, and underlining how Microsoft's tactics align with the Zero Trust model.
