Lembah Pantai MP Fahmi Fadzil urged the government to amend the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) to compel companies to notify the authorities immediately when there is a data breach.
“We must look at personal data as a ‘national treasure’. Its safety must be taken seriously by all quarters.
“Imagine the trauma suffered by the victims after their personal information gets stolen and misused for criminal activities. They could even end up being victims of scams later on,” he said in a statement.
Yesterday, iPay88 acknowledged that a cybersecurity breach may have compromised the card data of its users.
