KUALA LUMPUR, March 7 — Cooperation between universities and digital financial technology players can produce more cybersecurity experts needed by the country, said Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin.

"The relationship with the industry will allow universities to see if their curriculum is up to date and suitable for the industry's needs and what jobs are in demand," he said. The MoU, aimed at improving UTM's ability and capacity in developing talent to deal with cybersecurity issues, was signed by UTM vice-chancellor Datuk Dr Ahmad Fauzi Ismail and Mastercard executive vice-president, head of services Asia-Pacific Matthew Driver.

He said Mastercard would establish a knowledge transfer centre to conduct research on cybersecurity issues, as well as it will also send experts to look at improving the curriculum provided by UTM in addition to giving lectures.
