A Review on a Post on *Internet Security* from My E-Commerce Blog -* The IMPACT*-

aaaaaaThe user of internet is increasing in every single day, internet now a day is acting an important role to everyone. Internet is useful because it could help people in learning, communicate, exchange information and so on. However, there is also an increasing number in hacking and computer viruses & theft. Some Anti Virus Software is no longer useful as they maybe outdated or some new computer viruses cannot be recognizing by those Anti Virus Software. Indeed, it is really harmful to every internet user as the threat keep on circulating in their computer.

aaaaaaIn recent year, Malaysia is ready to make an impact in the battles against cyber-terrorism and this mission is carried out by a non-profit organisation which is known as International Multinational Partnership Against Cyber Terrorism (IMPACT). This idea was brought out by our Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi at the World Congress on IT in Austin, US, 2007. The Government has approved RM43mil in setting up the IMPACT. Some leading names in the IT industry such as Symantec Corporation (United States), Trend Micro (Japan), F-Secure (Finland) and KaperskyLab (Russia) have agreed to be key partners and serve on IMPACT's international advisory board. In Malaysia, there are two local IT companies cooperate in running and coordinating IMPACT, they are Ascendsys Sdn Bhd (security service company) & GITN Sdn Bhd (government IT network company).
aaaaaaIMPACT serve as a pioneer platform to allow governments of the world to exchange notes & ideas, as well as to facilitate the sharing of skills and best practices, with the ultimate objective of combating these constantly evolving threats. It is good to have an organisation to help to against internet security problem as e-business become more and more common to us. If internet security cannot be improve or even become more and more bad, they will be a great harm to all internet users. However, in my opinion, governments should move faster and harder towards their goals as we (internet user) wish to have more secured in using internet.

The Chairman of IMPACT -- Mohd Noor Amin
