Using a computer has its advantages as well as disadvantages. The number of people that use the Internet in Malaysia has increase gradually. At the same time, the numbers of threats that have been detected by various organizations are also increasing. Moreover, many systems in Malaysia are already computerized, in other word is controlled by the computer. As a result, it is making cyber space or internet not save and the cyber threats become as one of the serious threat for many organizations included Malaysia Government. Moreover, Malaysia Government has done a few things to overcome this kind of problem, such as made National Cyber Security Policy and also put the Internet Service Providers as one of the critical infrastructures in Malaysia. In this study, we propose a collaborative system model between Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission as a regulator, Malaysia Computer Emergency Response Team (MYCERT) as an agency and an Antivirus company as a private company. The collaboration system that we tried to propose, it will make SNSC (SKNMM Network Security Center) become more powerful and efficient in terms of internet threat detection. Our objective is to strengthen the internet threat detection system and to prevent the high impact of cyber threats that can happen on internet network in Malaysia. However, challenges that we might face when we want to implement this collaborative system model is always there.
