Key Initiatives

Yellow Heart Cybersafe in Schools Competition

In collaboration with MOE and Google Malaysia, we launched the second iteration of the Yellow Heart CyberSAFE in Schools competition in conjunction with Safer Internet Day 2020. The competition this year focuses on the issue of disinformation through audio visual manipulation such as deepfakes and shallowfakes, which are emerging online risks among an increasingly connected and advanced digital space. Deepfakes uses AI or complex technologies to manipulate a voice, face or image to create digitally altered media while shallowfakes or also known as cheapfakes is more of crude videos that have been selectively edited to misrepresent information or even just simple tricks of mis-labelling content with an intention to discredit or disinform. Both technologies have become increasingly popular and embraced by young people who use them to simply make fun of their friends, as a tool to spread false news and launch targeted attacks through realistic doctored videos, especially on social media. The competition was open to all primary and secondary students nationwide, and they were required to watch a video-story themed around disinformation and to come up with a solution by providing a creative ending to the story.

Safer Internet Day 2020

In conjunction with Safer Internet Day 2020, we participated in an engagement forum titled ‘Fostering Digital Fluency in the 21^st Century’ organised by CyberSecurity Malaysia to discuss matters pertaining to the theme of digital fluency and cybersafety empowerment in Malaysia.

Campaign to Battle Scams & Fraud

With the rising cases of Malaysians falling victim to scams and frauds, we embarked on an awareness campaign to educate customers on common and pervasive cyber-scams and digital fraud such as Wangiri and SMS Scams. The campaign was carried out across all Digi online platforms and targetted SMS blasts since November. The multi-lingual SMS blast was sent to over 600,000 Digi customers. A dedicated community portal was also created to keep our customers updated on recent scams and fraud trends, as well as the option to report. Visit here for more details.
