EC-Council, a global leader in cybersecurity certifications and training and the inventor of the world acclaimed Certified Ethical Hacking (C|EH) credential, in association with the National Cyber Security Agency (NACSA), grants USD 1 million worth of scholarships towards a shared vision of safeguarding Malaysia’s digital landscape.
According to recent reports, Malaysia witnessed a 47% increase in cyber crime in the past year alone. This significant rise in cyber incidents highlights the pressing need for a strong and skilled cybersecurity workforce.
To address the challenges, the Prime Minister announced the drafting of a Cyber Security Bill, empowering NACSA with clear legal authority to regulate and enforce cybersecurity laws. This aims to effectively combat cyber threats and ensure the safety and security of Malaysia’s digital landscape.
In line with these strategic cybersecurity initiatives, the collaboration between EC-Council and NACSA to offer scholarships to deserving individuals represents a significant milestone for Malaysia’s cybersecurity landscape.
Through this transformative scholarship program, aspiring cybersecurity professionals in Malaysia will have the opportunity to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively combat cyber threats.
Successful awardees will receive a full scholarship to cover the cost of EC-Council’s job-based and skill-based cybersecurity learning paths co-developed with leading industry experts.
