IN a digital age where smart devices and applications have become necessities in the lives of many, there have been growing concerns on data privacy and protection.

Now, thanks to a grant from the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), a team from HELP University’s Faculty of Law and Government will be conducting research that aims to make recommendations for the creation of a governance framework for the protection of personal data used in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) systems.
