Kaspersky's expertise in the field will be highly appreciated in the progress of this ecosystem," said James Lai, chairman of the Malaysian IoT Association in a statement received by VOI in Jakarta.
In this collaboration, Kaspersky and MyIoTA have joined efforts to identify corporate pilot projects, cyber immunity solutions for Smart City, which will be based on Malaysia's local IoT platform and Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateways.
