KKFD targets 50% digital forensics lab accreditation in five years
KOTA TINGGI: The Digital Forensics Workgroup (KKFD) plans to have 50% of its member agencies' digital forensics laboratories accredited by the Department of Standards Malaysia (DSM) within five years. Currently, only six out of 16 KKFD agencies hold the ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation. Accredited agencies include the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), and CyberSecurity Malaysia. KKFD chairman Wan Zulkifli Wan Jusoh stressed that accreditation ensures forensic labs meet international operational and quality standards. 'Obtaining this recognition is challenging—MACC took three years—but we aim for half of KKFD agencies to achieve it in five years,' he said during a press conference after the 2025 KKFD Law Enforcement Agency meeting. The two-day meeting involved 100 members from 16 agencies discussing cybercrime challenges and AI's role in digital investigations. Wan Zulkifli highlighted the meeting as proof of Malaysia's commitment to advancing digital forensics for combating cybercrime. KKFD, established in 2015, serves as a knowledge-sharing platform for digital investigation best practices. Post-meeting, KKFD will conduct lab visits to improve facilities and align operations with global standards. Simulated court courses and prosecutor dialogues will also be held to strengthen forensic teams' legal expertise. CyberSecurity Malaysia will compile approved forensic lab SOPs as official references for member agencies. Minimum SOP guidelines will be developed to standardise new labs and maintain national consistency. - Bernama

KOTA TINGGI, Aug 15 (Bernama) -- The Digital Forensics Workgroup (KKFD) has set a target to have half of the Digital Forensics laboratories under its agencies accredited by the Department of Standards Malaysia (DSM) within the next five years. Its chairman Wan Zulkifli Wan Jusoh said to date, only six out of the 16 agencies under KKFD have obtained the ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation certificate from DSM. These include the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), the Royal Malaysian Customs Department (JKDM), the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH), the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), and CyberSecurity Malaysia. Wan Zulkifli added that such recognition is vital to ensure that the operation and quality management of forensic laboratories, including their standard operating procedures (SOPs), meet international standards. 'There are other laboratories currently in the process of obtaining accreditation, and this effort is included in their respective agencies' roadmaps. "Achieving this recognition is a challenge. For instance, at MACC, it took us three years. With this in mind, we aim for half of the registered agencies under KKFD to obtain accreditation within the next five years,' he told a press conference following the 2025 KKFD Law Enforcement Agency meeting here today. Also present were KKFD PKPK II deputy chairman 1, Nik Mazdie Izham Nik Mohamed, who is also JKDM's Digital Forensics laboratory head, and KKFD deputy chairman II, ACP Muhammad Zulkifly Mohd Isa, PDRM's D10 Physical Forensics laboratory head. The two-day meeting, which began yesterday and was attended by 100 members from 16 agencies, discussed challenges and opportunities in addressing increasingly complex cybercrime, including the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in digital investigations. Wan Zulkifli emphasised that the involvement of several agencies in the meeting reflects the country's commitment to advancing technology and digital investigations, which are critical for combating the rising tide of digital crime.

Published on: Friday, May 16, 2025 Published on: Fri, May 16, 2025 By: Sisca Humphrey Text Size: Rosli (second left) officiates the launch of the eNores system. Kota Kinabalu: The Sabah Department of Labour (JTK) has introduced a new system called the Integrated Non-Resident Employment Management System (eNORES), which will provide a comprehensive solution for managing the employment of non-resident workers in the State. The launch of eNORES took place in conjunction with the Sabah Tripartite Labour Convention, involving 400 participants, on Wednesday. Advertisement Sabah JTK Director Wan Zulkifli Wan Setapa said the system is expected to have a significant impact on more than 187,000 employers and workers in Sabah, including those working illegally or without proper documentation. 'The eNORES system covers 12 core modules encompassing the entire process of worker management from recruitment and employment to repatriation,' he said. According to him, the launch of this system is a major step in ensuring more organized and effective management of foreign workers in the State. 'This system will also provide an opportunity for employers and workers to interact on a more structured and efficient platform,' Wan Zulkifli said. Alongside the launch of eNORES, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was also signed between JTK Sabah and seven regulatory agencies involved in the management of non-resident workers. Among the participating agencies were the Immigration Department of Malaysia, Sabah Department of Agriculture, and the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB). Wan Zulkifli further commenting, this MoU allows all regulatory agencies to access relevant data from the system, enabling them to plan and implement more effective policies and decisions regarding the management of foreign workers in the State. The signing of the MoU was witnessed by the Director-General of the National Digital Department (JDN) under the Ministry of Digital Malaysia, Datuk Dr Fazidah Abu Bakar. In related developments, he said JTK Sabah also announced data-sharing partnerships through system integration with several parties such as SOCSO (MyFutureJobs), the Companies Commission of Malaysia (MySSM), and the Ministry of Home Affairs (NIISe). 'Through the system, we can ensure that over 2.1 million workers in the State, including undocumented workers, receive better benefits and protection,' he added. He also emphasised this data-sharing initiative aims to enhance transparency and effectiveness in managing non-resident workers in the State. 'It is expected to greatly benefit various stakeholders, including employers and workers, while ensuring that Sabah continues to progress in workforce management, especially in the rapidly advancing digital era,' he said. * Follow us on Instagram and join our Telegram and/or WhatsApp channel(s) for the latest news you don't want to miss. * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
