DOHA, Nov 9 — Malaysia is considering accelerating its quantum migration process to strengthen national data security amid advances in quantum computing technology that are expected to pose new challenges to cybersecurity systems.
Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil said he had asked the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to hold discussions with the National Security Council (MKN), the National Cyber Security Agency (Nacsa) and telecommunications companies to explore potential collaboration in this area.
He said the collaboration would involve establishing a research and development (R&D) space to facilitate faster and more secure quantum migration in Malaysia.
