ABP Group invests in Malaysia to strengthen regional cyber defence, foster talent development

ABP Group, Asia’s leading cybersecurity technology outfit, has strengthened its presence in Malaysia with the launch of a new strategic office in KL Eco City which is just opposite Mid Valley City.

This milestone builds on six years of established operations in Malaysia by supporting the group’s long-term strategy to expand its capabilities across Southeast Asia.

The newly launched Kuala Lumpur office features a modern and spacious environment designed to support a growing team of cybersecurity experts. It includes infrastructure upgrades to support regional delivery, technical collaboration and talent development.

“This expansion allows us to build greater delivery capacity, deepen client engagement and respond more quickly to emerging threats in the region,” revealed ABP Group’s group CEO Sun Yi.

“As demand for cybersecurity solutions increases, our presence in Malaysia ensures we remain close to our clients and equipped to support their needs.”

The Malaysian expansion complements ABP Group’s regional footprint with the new office serving as a base for project execution, technical support and training initiatives.

Malaysia plays a central role in ABP Group’s broader regional roadmap for Southeast Asia. ABP Group’s continued investment reflects a deep belief in Malaysia’s emergence as a cybersecurity leader for the region.

“This expansion brings us closer to a more unified cybersecurity ecosystem across Southeast Asia starting with Singapore and Malaysia while working in sync through shared infrastructure, shared talent and a common standard of resilience,” envisages Sun.

As it is, cybersecurity risks in Southeast Asia have intensified as digital adoption accelerates. According to Kaspersky Cybersecurity Report for Malaysia (1H 2024), Malaysia recorded 19.62 million web-based attacks in 1H 2024, the highest in the region.

ABP Group’s capability is delivered through three specialised business units to offer end-to-end cybersecurity coverage across Southeast Asia.

Its first pillar, Sunnic, leads technology innovation and research and development (R&D) while ABP Cyber provides tailored cybersecurity solutions and ABP Securite drives value-added distribution through its growing partner ecosystem. These units work together to deliver regional impact with local precision.

The KL Eco City office will serve as ABP Group’s hub for client engagement, technical collaboration and local talent development.

“This is more than a physical expansion. It is about reinforcing the infrastructure needed to deliver cybersecurity at scale,” justified Sun.

“As Malaysia moves deeper into a digital-first future, the need for trusted cybersecurity partners will only grow. ABP Group sees this as a long game, one that demands not just technical capability but long-term thinking, shared responsibility and local leadership.” – July 10, 2025
