Simply Data Sdn. Bhd. Wins Cybersecurity Project of the Year at Malaysia Cybersecurity Awards 2025

We are thrilled to announce that Simply Data Sdn. Bhd. has been awarded the Cybersecurity Project of the Year 2025 by CyberSecurity Malaysia at the Malaysia Cybersecurity Awards 2025, held at MITEC, Kuala Lumpur. This prestigious recognition acknowledges our relentless efforts in shaping the cybersecurity landscape across the nation.

A Nationwide Achievement

At Simply Data, we’ve always been committed to securing the digital infrastructures that power businesses in Malaysia. Our Cybersecurity SOC Monitoring Project, which spans a nationwide network, was chosen for its outstanding impact on securing and monitoring the digital operations of various organizations across the country. This award reflects our dedication to providing comprehensive cybersecurity solutions, enabling businesses to stay ahead of evolving threats.

Key Highlights of the Project

The Cybersecurity SOC Monitoring Project that earned us the Cybersecurity Project of the Year 2025 recognition is an extraordinary accomplishment, and we are proud of how we have transformed cybersecurity operations for our client. Here are the key highlights:

• Nationwide Logs Ingestion: We handle the ingestion of logs from numerous sites across the country, processing vast amounts of data in real-time. This ensures that we can monitor, analyze, and respond to security events across various geographies, providing a unified security posture across the entire network.
• Complex Data Center Infrastructure: The project involves managing one of the largest AWS infrastructures in the country, with highly complex data center setups. We’ve successfully integrated cloud-based security monitoring with on-premises systems, ensuring complete visibility and control over our client’s dynamic and distributed infrastructure.
• Migration from Splunk to Elastic SIEM: As part of the transformation, we migrated the customer’s existing SIEM solution from Splunk to our new and enhanced Elastic SIEM platform. This involved configuring custom Elastic Dashboards, developing tailored detection rules, and ensuring seamless integration with other security tools to enable faster and more efficient threat detection and response.
• Deception Technology: In addition to traditional security measures, we introduced unique deception technology to add another layer of defense. This innovative approach creates trap environments designed to confuse and mislead attackers, making it harder for them to breach the system. Even though the customer already uses premium security solutions, our deception technology acts as an additional line of defense, strengthening their overall security strategy.
• SD-TI Threat Intelligence Module with SOAR Automation: We implemented a cutting-edge Security Defense Threat Intelligence (SD-TI) module, integrated with SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) capabilities. This module allows for the automated correlation of threat intelligence feeds with real-time data, enabling the system to identify potential threats and initiate automated responses, drastically reducing response times and increasing operational efficiency.
• CIS Benchmark Implementation: During the onboarding process, we ensured the implementation of CIS (Center for Internet Security) Benchmarks, a globally recognized set of best practices for securing systems and data. This provided our client with a robust security foundation, helping them achieve compliance with industry standards and ensuring secure configuration of their systems right from the start.
