Petaling Jaya, Malaysia – LGMS, through its subsidiary Applied Security Intelligence, has announced recently that its latest cybersecurity solution, StarSentry, will help small and medium enterprises in Malaysia to enhance their cyber risk prevention. 

For this launch, the company aims to provide cost effective tools for their cybersecurity initiatives. This solution works by identifying the core problem and helping companies recognise optimal areas for investing in cyber protection for their businesses.

Furthermore, according to Fong Choong Fook, executive chairman at LGMS, the said move specifically focuses on SME segment as it faces budgetary constraints in investing in cyber risk prevention compared to larger corporations with more resources. 

Commenting on the initiative, he also said, “SMEs so far are the most disadvantaged (segment). If you look at larger organisations, most likely they have already been building defences and prevention mechanisms.

“However, for smaller organisations, there are disadvantages as they do not have sufficient budget to acquire security solutions, and a lot of organisations do not know the kind of suitable solutions they should acquire as they do not know the root cause, the core problem,” continued Fong.

“More people are realising that security can be a serious disruptor for business (if taken lightly),” he concluded.

The StarSentry solution is scheduled for launch in June and was created in partnership with Dell Technologies OEM Solutions and Intel Malaysia.
