NATIONAL CYBER CRISIS MANAGEMENT PLAN (NCCMP)
The Malaysian Cyber Security Framework (MyCSF) is a set of guidelines and best practices developed by the Cyber Security Agency of Malaysia (CSA) to help organizations in Malaysia protect their IT systems and data from cyber threats. The MyCSF framework is based on international standards such as ISO 27001 and provides a systematic approach for managing and implementing cyber security in an organization. It covers areas such as risk management, incident management, and compliance. The framework is intended for use by organizations of all sizes and industries, and is designed to be flexible and adaptable to the specific needs of each organization.
The Cyber Security Agency of Malaysia (CSA) is a government agency established in 2016 to protect and defend the country's critical information infrastructure and national security from cyber threats. The CSA is responsible for developing and implementing national cyber security policies, strategies, and plans, as well as providing guidance and assistance to organizations on how to secure their IT systems and data.
The CSA also plays a key role in incident response and management, working closely with other government agencies and private sector organizations to detect, investigate, and respond to cyber incidents. The agency also works to raise awareness about cyber security and educate the public and organizations about the risks and best practices for protecting against cyber threats.
The CSA is headed by a Director General and is overseen by the Ministry of Communications and Multimedia. The agency is also responsible for the development of the Malaysian Cyber Security Framework, a set of guidelines and best practices for managing and implementing cyber security in organizations.
