Time and LGMS Partner to Advance Malaysia’s Trusted Cybersecurity Ecosystem

The MoC was witnessed by Ir. Dr. Megat Zuhairy Megat Tajuddin, Chief Executive of the National Cyber Security Agency (NACSA), and Datuk Zainal Amanshah, Executive Director of TT dotCom Sdn Bhd.

As Malaysian organisations accelerate cloud adoption, artificial intelligence (AI) initiatives, and digital transformation, cybersecurity has become a critical enabler of resilience, trust, and economic competitiveness. Through the collaboration, Time and LGMS will combine Time’s trusted digital infrastructure, secure connectivity, Managed Security Operations Centre (Managed SOC) capabilities, and network intelligence with LGMS’ cybersecurity advisory, governance, risk and compliance, security assessment, threat intelligence, and incident response expertise.

Malaysia’s evolving cybersecurity landscape, including the implementation of the Cyber Security Act 2024 and increased emphasis on National Critical Information Infrastructure (NCII) resilience, has intensified the need for locally relevant, operationally ready cybersecurity capabilities.

Together, Time and LGMS aim to establish an integrated cybersecurity collaboration framework tailored to Malaysia’s regulatory, operational, and threat environment. The framework is intended to help enterprises, public sector organisations, and regulated industries strengthen cyber resilience, improve operational readiness, and support secure digital transformation.

The collaboration will focus on five strategic areas:

• Joint cybersecurity go-to-market initiatives to accelerate cybersecurity adoption across Malaysian enterprises and public sector organisations.
• Development of an integrated cybersecurity collaboration framework spanning advisory, Managed SOC, continuous monitoring, and incident response.
• Strengthening Malaysia’s digital sovereignty through locally hosted infrastructure, sovereign AI capabilities, and Malaysian cybersecurity expertise.
• Capability development through knowledge exchange, skills development, and operational readiness initiatives.
• Joint innovation in AI-powered cybersecurity technologies, threat intelligence, security analytics, and advanced security operations.

Azhar Adnan, Chief Executive Officer, Time Enterprise & Public Sector, said:

“Cybersecurity is no longer just about protecting systems. It is about enabling organisations to innovate with confidence. As businesses embrace AI, cloud, and digital transformation, trusted digital infrastructure becomes the foundation that underpins resilience, governance, and business continuity. Through this collaboration with LGMS, we are combining secure digital infrastructure, Managed SOC capabilities, and local cybersecurity expertise to deliver integrated cybersecurity capabilities that help Malaysian organisations strengthen cyber resilience, support digital sovereignty, and accelerate secure digital transformation.”

Fong Choong Fook, Founder and Managing Director, LGMS, said:

“Cybersecurity today requires more than individual technologies. Organisations need an integrated engagement framework that brings together advisory, governance, continuous monitoring, incident response, and operational intelligence. By partnering with Time, we are combining complementary strengths to deliver cybersecurity capabilities designed specifically for Malaysia’s regulatory and operational environment. Together, we aim to strengthen local cybersecurity capabilities and help organisations build greater confidence in their digital future.”

This collaboration also reinforces both organisations’ commitment to developing Malaysia’s cybersecurity ecosystem through local innovation, AI-driven security operations, knowledge sharing, and the continuous development of sovereign cybersecurity capabilities that support long-term national resilience.
