THE Asia Pacific Computer Emergency Response Team (APCERT) has just concluded its annual drill to test the response capability of the leading Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRTs) from Asia Pacific economies. The drill for the first time involved the participation of the European Government CSIRTs group (EGC), CyberSecurity Malaysia (CSM) said in a statement.
For the third consecutive year, the annual drill also involved the participation of members from the Organisation of the Islamic Cooperation – Computer Emergency Response Team (OIC-CERT).
For the first time, European response teams are involved in the annual drill by The Asia Pacific Computer Emergency Response Team together with OIC-CERT. According to the Malaysian national security specialist CyberSecurity Malaysia, this year's annual drill to test the response capability of Computer Emergency Response Teams (CSIRTS) from the Asia Pacific economies has involved the participation of the European Government
CSIRTS group as well as the Organisation of the Islamic Cooperation - Computer Emergency Response Team.
This year's drill also saw the third consecutive cooperation of OIC-CERT, said CyberSecurity Malaysia chairman General Tan Sri Dato' Seri Panglima Mohd Azumi Mohamed (Retired), adding that the Malaysian agency is now the permanent secretariat of OIC-CERT.
Challenges of managing cyber threats and the risks while searching for economical opportunities in cyber security was the main focus of the annual general meeting of the Organization of the Islamic Cooperation- Computer Emergency Response Team, OIC-CERT.
The conference and general meeting was officially opened by the Deputy Minister of Home Affairs, Yang Dimuliakan Pehin Datu Lailaraja Retired Major General Dato Paduka Seri Haji Awang Halbi bin Haji Mohd Yusof as the Acting Chairman of National Security Council. With the theme "emerging Risks versus Opportunities", the conference aimed at addressing the latest technologies in cyber security.
ORGANISATIONS should be aware of cyber threats, and appreciate that better preparedness to face them makes both business and operational sense.
This should be instilled in key decision makers said the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of ITPSS Sdn Bhd and BruCERT in his speech during the opening ceremony of the Annual Organisation of the Islamic Cooperation –Computer Emergency Response Team (OIC-CERT) Conference 2014 yesterday.
SMALL business or companies are just as likely to be targets of cybercrimes as larger companies because their networks can be hijacked to be used for other malicious activities.
According to Shamsul Bahri Hj Kamis, CEO of cybersecurity firm ITPSS Sdn Bhd, large companies or organisations have bigger data and more complex infrastructure and may be more vulnerable as a result. However small companies are also liable to be target if they are part of a supply chain of bigger organisations or if they store users data.
AS COMPANIES in the region go online, they face cybersecurity challenges in an evolving business landscape with new threats and security systems that are often too fragmented and complex.
In an interview with The Brunei Times, Sugiarto Koh, CISCO System’s regional director for ASEAN for global security sales organisation, there are three main issues that companies have to deal with when it comes to cybersecurity.

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Rabu, 22 Oktober. - Pertubuhan Kerjasama Islam - Pasukan Tindakan Kecemasan Komputer (OIC-CERT) menyifatkan keselamatan siber adalah amat penting bagi semua sektor sekali gus memberikan tumpuan kepada cabaran bagi mengurus ancaman siber dan risiko sambil mencari peluang-peluang ekonomi daripadanya.
Pengerusi OIC-CERT dan Ketua Pengarah Oman National Cert, Eng. Badar Ali Said Al-Salehi menyatakan perkara itu pada Sidang Media sempena Persidangan Tahunan dan Mesyuarat Am Tahunan (AGM) Ke-6 2014 OIC-CERT, berlangsung di Hotel Antarabangsa Rizqun, Gadong, di sini.
"Ruang siber adalah sangat dinamik, tidak menentu dan rumit disebabkan 'internet' telah menjadi infrastruktur penting untuk ekonomi dan masyarakat, akibatnya gangguan atau salah guna di 'internet' boleh mendatangkan kesan buruk," ujarnya.
BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, 22 Okt – Sekuriti siber mempunyai potensi besar bagi pembangunan ekonomi dan juga mempunyai kesan yang besar kepada sekuriti negara.
Maka itu, sektor swasta dan awam perlu memahami peranan sekuriti siber, cabaran yang dibawa olehnya, jurang dan kesannya dari segi politik serta ekonomi, kata Pengerusi OIC-CERT dan Ketua Pengarah Oman National CERT, Badar Ali Said Al-Salehi.
Oleh itu, setiap pihak harus memahami cara untuk mengurangkan cabaran-cabaran yang muncul menerusi inisiatif dasar kerajaan, kerjasama awam-swasta dan juga dari segi perundangan, katanya semasa menyampaikan ucapan alu-aluan pada perasmian Persidangan Tahunan OIC-CERT 2014 yang berlangsung di Hotel Antarabangsa Rizqun, Gadong, hari ini.
BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, 22 Okt – Negara Brunei Darussalam juga tidak dapat lari daripada menghadapi beberapa ancaman jenayah siber di mana antara yang dilaporkan di negara ini adalah kecurian identiti (Identity Theft) iaitu melibatkan akaun pengguna seperti di laman sosial termasuk Facebook dan Twitter yang digunakan oleh pihak-pihak tidak bertanggungjawab.
Di samping itu, terdapat juga beberapa kes ‘Sextortion’ dilaporkan di Brunei dan disebabkan kebimbangan dari segi jumlah kes dan juga tahap serius kes-kes berkenaan pihak BruCERT telah menggandakan usaha dan program kesedaran khususnya bagi melindungi kanak-kanak dan remaja daripada menjadi mangsa kepada perbuatan berkenaan.
Perkara itu didedahkan oleh Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif ITPSS Sdn Bhd/BruCERT, Awang Shamsul Bahri Haji Kamis dalam sidang media selepas Perasmian Persidangan OIC-CERT 2014 yang berlangsung di Hotel Antarabangsa Rizqun, Gadong, hari ini.
BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, 23 Okt – Dalam menangani masalah sekuriti siber, ia tidak sepatutnya hanya bergantung kepada teknologi atau membeli peralatan dan perisian khusus sahaja tetapi harus merangkumi penekanan kepada budaya korporat, pendidikan serta kesedaran.
Di samping itu, dalam hal ehwal sekuriti siber terdapat beberapa tanggapan salah yang boleh membawa kepada pelanggaran sekuriti termasuk tanggapan bahawa hanya organisasi atau syarikat besar sahaja menjadi sasaran kepada masalah pelanggaran sekuriti.
Namun begitu perlu diingat bahawa jika sebuah syarikat atau organisasi itu adalah sebahagian daripada rangkaian pengedar kepada organisasi yang lebih besar atau menyimpan data pengguna, data kewangan atau juga maklumat yang sensitif, mereka juga akan menjadi sasaran kepada serangan siber.
