Details that matter: Members of the public registering themselves the modern or old-fashioned way before entering Petaling Street in Kuala Lumpur.
PETALING JAYA: As the government moves to make the use of the MySejahtera app compulsory, experts are concerned that a data breach could leak sensitive information, increasing the number of scams targeting the public. However, the Department of Personal Data Protection (JPDP) assured that although the government was not subject to the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) 2010, action could still be taken against those responsible for a data leak.
A JPDP spokesperson said the public could file a complaint to the Chief Government Security Office, a unit under the Prime Minister’s Department that is responsible for the security of all government assets, or the National Cyber Security Agency.
