Disruptive change is coming and we can’t avoid it. As a matter of fact we must embrace it, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak at the opening of the 13th World Islamic Economic Forum (WIEF), which begins today at Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK).

Only 18.72 percent of Malaysian consumers feel “extremely confident” that businesses are doing enough to protect them against cybercrime, according to the ‘State of Cybersecurity’ research report from Limelight Networks, (Nasdaq:LLNW), a global leader in digital content delivery.
