ICT Developers Urged To Get Certification For Their
Products
BERNAMA (October 17, 2012 15:02 PM)
KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 17 (Bernama) -- Local information and communication
technology (ICT) developers can access international markets by certifying
their products under the Common Criteria (ISO15408) via the Malaysia
Common Criteria Evaluation and Certification Scheme (MyCC),
CyberSecurity Malaysia said.
Acting chief executive officer, Zahri Yunos, said this was because the
accreditation would ensure that a product comply with globally-accepted
standards and assurance requirements, whereby CyberSecurity Malaysia
was the authorised certification body for the scheme.
"So far we have certified 26 products and we hope by setting up a special
pavilion in the coming Cyber Security Malaysia Awards, Conference and
Exhibition (CSM-ACE) 2012, we can attract more local ICT developers to get
their products certified," he told a media briefing on the conference here
today.
The CSM-ACE 2012, with the theme, 'Cyber Security Risk and Compliance
for Economic Transformation', aims to increase the awareness of
mandatory compliance of information-security standards as well as
providing a strategic platform for government agencies to get information
on info-security standards.
The two-day event from Nov 6 this year, would form part of the National
Transformation Programme under the Strategic Reform Initiative to conduct
trade events and business match-making opportunities.
