Malaysia is promoting passwordless authentication as a solution to enhance cybersecurity. This approach eliminates the reliance on traditional passwords, improving security and user experience. Passwordless methods, such as biometric authentication and one-time passcodes, offer robust alternatives to traditional credentials. These methods are harder to compromise and reduce the burden on users to remember complex passwords.
Embracing passwordless authentication will strengthen Malaysia’s cybersecurity and support its vision of a more inclusive digital society. The country is also enforcing the Cyber Security Act and revising the Personal Data Protection Act to tackle contemporary issues.These efforts aim to inspire confidence among investors, businesses, and the global community in Malaysia’s commitment to cybersecurity excellence.
