SINGAPORE, 27 JULY 2010 – BCM Institute recently caught up with Lt. Col Husin bin Jazri, Chief Executive Officer of CyberSecurity Malaysia, which is the national cyber security specialist under the purview of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation, Malaysia (MOSTI). Col Husin, a member of the Advisory Council of BCM Institute who was invited to be on a FAQ panel at SecureAsia 2010. An (ISC)² Security Leadership event, supported by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) and key industry organizations, it is the Asia-Pacific’s largest gathering of global infosec pundits such as the likes of Prof. Fred Piper.

 

 

 

 

 

Themed “Building a Secure Connected Future”, SecureAsia featured a panel discussion that posed questions such as ways to mitigate the risk of cyberattacks. Col Husin shared with the attendees that because many economies place a high reliance on cyberspace and while no nation can be spared from cyberattacks in the political and economic spheres, to counter such attacks, a nation should create a balanced ecosystem where the service providers are given responsibility to manage abuses. Secondly the ecosystem should have a formal arbitration process to address issues transparently.

Recently honoured with the 2010 Harold F. Tipton Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of his distinguished information security career, what motivated him to volunteer his time to BCM Institute’s Advisory Council? “Well, I volunteer my expertise on various platforms and I certainly support platforms that offer good CSR for the business continuity and disaster recovery global community. So in this regard, BCM Institute furthers the cause for promoting education through BCMPedia, the BC-DR forum as well as its complimentary Meet-the-Expert (MTE) sessions”, added Col Husin.
