PETALING JAYA: Maybank is enhancing the security of its MAE app with the rollout of a new malware-detection feature that will detect malicious applications and risky device settings.

This comes after the announcement from Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) last Friday (Aug 9), which states that a new malware shielding feature would be introduced to several Malaysian mobile banking apps.
