Malaysia–Japan ERAB

Cybersecurity Conference 2024

Nearly all organizations are struggling today with the unprecedented growth of the Internet of Things (IoT). Energy Resource Aggregation Business (ERAB) is a new scenario on the electricity infrastructure that International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is addressing the new international standards as SRD63443 series. Considering the emergence of ERAB, devices and services are made in different countries and regions that make up the global supply chain, there is a need to ensure the trustworthiness of a whole cyber-physical system in a new angle. Therefore, an international discussion is expected to warrant to develop security frameworks and Japan has driven the discussion by showing the Cyber and Physical Security Framework (CPSF) and the example of security implementation shown by “the security triangle of ERAB”.

IPv6 Forum Malaysia hosts the Malaysia–Japan ERAB Cybersecurity Conference 2024, inviting international guests. The conference with the endorsement by Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) provides the experts in Malaysia and Japan with mutual understanding about this new movement.
