Malaysian broadband operator Time dotCom announced on Friday it has formalised a strategic Memorandum of Collaboration (MoC) with local cybersecurity services company LGMS to strengthen Malaysia’s cybersecurity ecosystem.

Under the MoC, Time and LGMS aim to establish an integrated cybersecurity collaboration framework tailored to Malaysia’s regulatory, operational and threat environment, as well as joint innovation in AI-powered cybersecurity technologies, threat intelligence, security analytics and advanced security operations.

The framework is intended to help enterprises, public sector organisations and regulated industries strengthen cyber resilience, improve operational readiness and support secure digital transformation, said LGMS founder and MD Fong Choong Fook.

“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,” he said in a statement. “By partnering with Time, we are combining complementary strengths to deliver cybersecurity capabilities designed specifically for Malaysia’s regulatory and operational environment.”

Time and LGMS said the collaboration will also focus on developing joint cybersecurity go-to-market initiatives to accelerate cybersecurity adoption across Malaysian enterprises and public sector organisations, and strengthening Malaysia’s digital sovereignty through locally hosted infrastructure, sovereign AI capabilities and local cybersecurity expertise.

Time and LGMS also aim to develop capabilities through knowledge exchange, skills development and operational readiness initiatives.

The project will combine Time’s digital infrastructure, secure connectivity, managed security operations centre (SOC) capabilities and network intelligence with LGMS’ cybersecurity advisory, governance, risk and compliance, security assessment, threat intelligence and incident response expertise, said Azhar Adnan, CEO of Time’s Enterprise & Public Sector unit.

“Cybersecurity is no longer just about protecting systems. It is about enabling organisations to innovate with confidence,” he said in a statement. “As businesses embrace AI, cloud and digital transformation, trusted digital infrastructure becomes the foundation that underpins resilience, governance and business continuity.”
