The world today is becoming dependent on Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Cyber threats on ICT infrastructures can lead to catastrophic damage and disruption, hence an effective information security policy framework is vital in securing the Critical National Information Infrastructure (CNII). Malaysia has implemented the National Cyber Security Policy (NCSP) to safeguard Malaysia’s CNII against cyber threats. The implementation of NCSP initiatives requires the commitment and involvement of multiple stakeholders to ensure continuous momentum. Thanks to the implementation of the NCSP initiatives, Malaysia’s commitment and effort in ensuring resilience against cyber threats has been recognized at the international level.
