SEREMBAN: Port Dickson Member of Parliament Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim says that cyber intrusion was detected in his office and social media accounts, since last Friday.

Anwar, who is also PKR president in a statement today said, they were working with the relevant authorities to resolve the problem and urged all parties to be wary of all information coming from his office as well as social media accounts in his name.

In the meantime, Anwar said cyber-attacks were becoming a major issue as people spend more time on digital space.

“Apparently it has a negative impact as individuals were resorting to using digital tools for immediate gains or to create uncertainty and disorder.

“Attention should not only be given to Big Data and artificial intelligence, but must also be balanced with reasonable data protection as well as the ethical application of such technology.

“These issues are also being addressed and will be a focus of the Digital Native Agenda (DNA23),” he said. – Bernama
