BlackBerry Partners with ISC2 to Advance Cybersecurity Skills in Malaysia

  • Malaysia’s Cybersecurity Center of Excellence marks first six months, expands Cybersecurity Curriculum with more globally-certified training programs to help upskill cyber professionals in ASEAN

BlackBerry Limited (NYSE:BB)(TSX:BB) has announced a new partnership with The International Information System Security Certification Consortium (ISC2), the world’s leading nonprofit member organization for cybersecurity professionals, to deliver its globally recognized cybersecurity training and certifications in Malaysia. In support of the Malaysian Government’s ongoing efforts to boost digital skills, capacity and cyber-resilience, the courses are now offered as part of the BlackBerry Cybersecurity Curriculum at the world-class Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (CCoE) facility in Cyberjaya. Registration is now open for the first ISC2 courses taking place later this month.

As Malaysia’s digital transformation continues to accelerate and threat surfaces expand, so too does the demand for highly-qualified cybersecurity professionals. BlackBerry’s new partnership with ISC2 extends the range of internationally-certified courses available to cyber professionals at the Malaysia CCoE to help upskill and enhance capabilities to bolster defenses against ever-evolving cyber threats. The courses include ISC2’s highly sought-after Certified Information Systems Security Professionals (CISSP), Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) and Certified in Cybersecurity (CC).

Han Ther Lee, Director of Education and Training, Cybersecurity Center of Excellence, BlackBerry, commented, “As Malaysia prepares for the ‘Year of Skills’ in 2025, BlackBerry remains committed to collaborating with government and industry to help educate, upskill and grow the nation’s cyber-workforce. We are proud to partner with another top-tier training institution like ISC2, further enriching the curriculum offered at the Cybersecurity Center of Excellence and giving cyber professionals in Malaysia and the region wider access to globally recognized certifications.”

The first courses offered through the partnership will focus on critical cybersecurity disciplines, including security operations, risk management, and cloud security, vital to strengthening national and regional cybersecurity capabilities, especially as the region pushes forward its digital transformation goals. ISC2 will provide comprehensive training materials, course resources, licenses, and ongoing support for all its programs.

Cigdem Bildirici​​​​, Vice President, Business Development, ISC2 added, “With Malaysia advancing towards a more digitally connected future and the accompanying rise in cyber risks, strengthening the cybersecurity workforce has become more vital than ever. We’re excited to collaborate with BlackBerry at the Cybersecurity Center of Excellence to bring our training programs to support this growth.”

Since opening the CCoE in March 2024, with the support of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), BlackBerry and its education partners have dedicated over 8,000 hours to train over 1,500 professionals at the facility. Several education partnerships also offer globally-certified training courses at the CCoE, including CompTIASANS Institute and the Rogers Cybersecure Catalyst (“the Catalyst”) at Toronto Metropolitan University, which runs its CLIC (Certifications of Leadership in Cybersecurity) training program.

Now in its sixth month of operations, the addition of ISC2 training programs at the CCoE is another milestone achievement for the non-profit institution, which aims to provide the most comprehensive set of certifications and training courses available in the Indo-Pacific region.

The first wave of ISC2 certification courses, Certified in Cybersecurity (CC) will commence by the end of October 2024, while the renowned CISSP and CCSP programs, will start in November 2024. Cybersecurity professionals and organizations across Malaysia and the Indo-Pacific region can now register for the ISC2 courses here. Additional programs, such as specialized workshops and advanced training, will be rolled out in the months to follow, providing continuous opportunities for upskilling and certification.

AI-Powered Innovations: Securing Your Reputation with Ensign InfoSecurity’s Digital Reputation Risk Management Suite

Ensign InfoSecurity (“Ensign”), one of Asia’s largest comprehensive cybersecurity solutions providers and a Diamond sponsor at Govware 2024, will showcase its Digital Reputation Risk Management Suite. This AI-powered, modular solution provides a comprehensive, real-time visibility and defence against digital threats that can tarnish reputations and erode stakeholder trust.

As misinformation, deepfakes, and website spoofing attacks become more sophisticated, businesses face unprecedented risks to their reputation and market trust. A major attack can undo years of reputation building, threatening long-term relationships, customer loyalty, and business growth. Organisations need more than just isolated alerts – they need a unified, real-time platform offering a comprehensive suite of solutions to provide early warning, scam protection, and brand monitoring across the deep and dark web. This approach enables seamless collaboration, allowing teams to anticipate and stop threats before they cause significant damage, ensuring the business not only runs smoothly but thrives.

The ZEUS Engine: Cyber Central Command System (C3S) for Reputation Risk Management

At the core of Ensign’s Digital Reputation Risk Management Suite is our proprietary ZEUS Engine, a field-tested AI-powered solution that provides a unified view of an organisation’s digital reputation. By leveraging advanced anomaly detection and real-time analytics, ZEUS identifies malicious activity, correlates it with other attacks, and assesses whether the organisation is facing isolated incidents or a more coordinated campaign that warrants urgent action. This precision helps leaders make faster and better-informed decisions, preventing small issues from escalating into full-blown crises. With this comprehensive solution, businesses can:

  • Identify and mitigate reputational threats and risks in real time, including assessing potential coordinated campaign activity.
  • Proactively manage their digital reputation by monitoring misinformation and website spoofing attempts.
  • Gain insights into the attacker’s tactics and how they view your organisation.

Key Features of the Digital Reputation Risk Management Suite

The suite consists of three modular solutions designed to offer comprehensive protection across multiple threat vectors:

1. Anti-Scam Module

Phishing scams and digital fraud are constantly evolving, posing serious risks to organisations’ data integrity and brand trust. This module uses AI to identify and block these sophisticated attacks in real time. It combines advanced threat intelligence and machine learning analytics to detect deepfakes, phishing attempts, and fraud, offering actionable insights that empower organisations to mitigate risks quickly and decisively.

The Anti-Scam Module is supported by:

  • Ensign Aletheia detects deepfakes in real time within seconds, on-device, across multiple modalities (audio and video), with up to 90% accuracy, safeguarding organisations from sophisticated digital frauds.
  • Ensign Helios combats phishing attacks by using advanced AI to detect malicious emails and protect against frauds.

2. Early Warning Module:

Waiting for a cyberattack is no longer an option. This module continuously scans an organisation’s digital footprint for potential vulnerabilities and suspicious activity. With advanced detection capabilities, it identifies exposed assets and vulnerabilities, enabling businesses to take proactive steps to secure their environment before malicious actors can strike.

The Early Warning Module is supported by:

  • Ensign Aegis, enhanced with proprietary telemetry, provides a comprehensive view of external-facing assets, identifying vulnerabilities before they are exploited to keep organisations ahead of threats.
  • Ensign Ares monitors threat exposure, analysing vulnerabilities in real time to prioritise and mitigate risks.

3. Brand Monitoring Module:

In a world where misinformation and disinformation can spread rapidly, it is critical for businesses to have real-time oversight of their brand’s digital presence. This module continuously tracks online sentiment, leaked sensitive information, social media conversations, and digital channels to detect potential reputational threats. It allows organisations to respond swiftly, ensuring they can take control of the narrative and safeguard their reputation before false information causes irreparable damage.

The Brand Monitoring Module is supported by:

  • Ensign Hermes utilises AI-powered natural language processing to monitor online sentiment and detect misinformation, disinformation, and mal-information to protect brand reputation.
  • Ensign Athena delivers proactive cyber threat intelligence, providing early warnings and actionable insights to defend against evolving threats.

  • Singapore (-40%) and Japan (-17%) have reported a noteworthy reduction in average scam loss per victim, indicating the effectiveness of preventive measures while other countries have seen increases. In Singapore, initiatives such as the co-location of police and banks has contributed to an efficient crackdown on scams.
  • Dominance of Social Media Scams: Some leading platforms have seen an increase in scam activity, with many users looking for social platforms to address fraudulent ads and fake accounts.
  • Top Scams by Category: Identity theft, investment scams, and shopping scams remain the leading threats across the region, with scammers targeting individuals through a range of channels, including phone calls, social media, and text messages.

Scam Prevention and Cross-Sector Collaboration in Focus at GASS Asia SummitAs Foundation Partners of GASA, Mastercard and ScamAdviser sponsored this report and will engage deeply in scam prevention discussions and partnerships at the Global Anti-Scam Summit (GASS) Asia Summit on October 20-21.

New Australian Issuing Certificate Authority Launched with SSLTrust: Verokey, for Australian Businesses, Government and the APAC Region

Verokey is a new afforable Issuing Certificate Authority for the Australian market. Offering SSL/TLS Certificates, Email Certificates, Code Signing, and PKI Solutions for Australian Businesses, Government Entities, and Educational Institutions.

SSLTrust, a leading global provider of digital certificates for public key infrastructure, has identified the APAC region as needing a new local issuing Certificate Authority.

Verokey, the new Australian Issuing Certificate Authority

Currently, in the APAC region, SSLTrust has been pushing international Certificate Authority products for Australia to the forefront, which has been welcomed by customers but with limited acceptance, mainly in terms of price. So launching a new Australian-based issuing Certificate Authority, Verokey, using the same infrastructure, has been very well accepted by customers to overcome that hurdle. Verokey has proven instrumental in fundamental security for Australian and Asia Pacific businesses and government entities while providing the best solutions at affordable prices. This success is in addition to SSLTrust’s customer-centric approach to PKI solutions and their implementation.

Unlike many other Certificate Providers in Australia and the Asia Pacific, we can provide customers with a high level of local support via phone, email, online chat and onsite assistance. We help customer manage all their Certificates through their very own feature-rich account while benefiting from the lower priced Verokey products

SSLTrust’s Managing Director, Paul Baka, explains how this lets users have quality products to the likes of other Certificate Authorities but with an added level of quality support and better local pricing – a feature that’s not otherwise readily available in Australia.

Purchasing Certificates to secure networks, devices, websites, and more has historically been a significant headache for Australian organisations, with the costs constantly rising and exceeding allocated budgets. In the last two years alone, customers of the overseas-based Certificate Authorities have seen price increases upward of 50%. And when organisations weigh these against the benefits, they start to question the requirements of these higher-priced solutions. That is where Verokey helps by providing the same solutions and products (sometimes exceeding current offerings) while still keeping the prices affordable so organisations can maintain their security and meet budget limitations.

Paulunderscores the company’s unwavering commitment to meeting unique customer requests. This dedication to customer satisfaction is a key differentiator for SSLTrust, setting it apart from other resellers or Certificate Authorities and reassuring customers that SSLTrust is always ready to go the extra mile to meet their requirements, making them feel accommodated and understood.

Critical features of SSLTrust’s repertoire of products through the new Verokey Issuing Certificate Authority include (but are not limited to):

As the importance of digital trust increases, so does the value of high-end SSL/TLS certificates and their ease of management.
