The issue of corporate and government data hacking is increasingly seen as a global concern, especially for small and medium-sized companies that may not have their own digital security teams. According to several reports, 1 trillion cyber attacks are reported every day globally, and this has forced many small and medium-sized companies to start looking for solutions
Arctic Wolf, a corporate digital security services company, recently announced that their digital security services have begun to be offered in Malaysia through a collaboration with two local companies, electronic equipment and services distributor Ingram Micro and security services distributor Anon Security.
Arctic Wolf offers comprehensive digital security services. This process begins with a discussion between companies, where the Arctic Wolf distributor will take into account the company's needs and business processes before offering the right security plan and services for the company.
They also offer digital security courses for company employees to reduce their risk of being exposed to social engineering attacks such as not opening links from inappropriate emails, etc.
Arctic Wolf's security services cover a wide range of aspects, from the security of servers, company networks and even computer devices used, and are suitable for companies with a total workforce of approximately 100-500 employees.
Apart from providing services for the digital security of companies, Arctic Wolf is also seen collaborating with various parties to record and report on how serious digital security issues are for companies on a global scale.
Along with the official launch of their services in Malaysia, Arctic Wolf has also introduced a report on digital security issues around the Asia Pacific region through their Threats & Predictions Report 2026.
According to the report, small and medium-sized companies are victims of 71 percent of cyber attacks in Asia Pacific, while the rest (29 percent) are larger corporate companies.
Hacker groups such as Qilin are also seen to have the ability to maintain continuous attacks, up to months, and it is difficult for smaller companies to avoid having their data attacked.
According to the report, Malaysia has seen a 33 percent increase in malware attacks and a 38 percent increase in ransomware attacks. Exposed company details such as unsecured employee email addresses, names and passwords are seen as ways for hackers to access internal systems.
Local sectors that are often attacked by hackers include the manufacturing, logistics, development, IT, healthcare and education industries.
Hacker groups are also now seen using malware not to lock company data, but to steal it. This is because the likelihood of companies paying ransom for their data is now much lower than before.
