AhnLab is targeting Malaysia's public cybersecurity market to explore new business opportunities.
The company announced on July 13 that it participated in the National Cybersecurity Summit 2026 (NCSS 2026), held from July 7-9 at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre. At the summit, AhnLab showcased AI-based integrated security technologies optimized for public IT environments.
NCSS is co-hosted by the National Cyber Security Agency of Malaysia (NACSA) and the National Security Council (NSC), focusing on collaboration, knowledge exchange, and policy discussions to enhance national cyber resilience. The event is characterized by significant participation from government and public institutions.
AhnLab operated a booth under the theme of an 'AI security platform encompassing both IT and operational technology (OT).' The company presented key solutions that integrate AI-based security capabilities, including the AI-driven threat analysis platform AhnLab XDR, the next-generation threat intelligence platform AhnLab TIP, and the CPS integrated security platform AhnLab CPS Plus.
Specifically, the company plans to identify new business opportunities in the local public market. AhnLab has been accelerating its global business by participating in cybersecurity exhibitions such as Interop Tokyo 2026 in June, Cybersec 2026 in Taiwan in May, and RSAC 2026 in the United States in March.
According to the company, AhnLab XDR garnered attention at the summit. AhnLab XDR collects security data across various systems within an organization, including endpoints, networks, and cloud environments, and correlates this data to identify the context and risks of threats. Malaysia is in the early stages of digital transformation, reflecting a growing demand for integrated security solutions that operate on a platform basis.
Choi Jeong-ui, head of AhnLab, stated, “This year, we are promoting AhnLab’s solutions and platforms at global cybersecurity exhibitions in the US, Japan, and Taiwan. Based on the references we have built in the domestic public sector, we have received positive evaluations from Malaysian government and public officials, confirming the potential for collaboration.”
AhnLab's public security business is expanding from supplying traditional antivirus and network security products to integrated security services that include threat intelligence, extended detection and response (XDR), and security monitoring. The company has experience supplying the threat intelligence platform AhnLab TIP to domestic government agencies and public institutions. Internationally, it is expanding its overseas business in Southeast Asia through partnerships based on its subsidiaries in Japan and China.
