In this episode of Kopi-O with CISO, I sit down with Zhon Teck, the President of the ISC2 Malaysia Chapter, to dive deep into the evolution of cyber security communities in Malaysia. With a rich background in cyber security, Zhon shares his personal journey in the field, discussing how he ventured into this domain and his current role in shaping the future of ISC2 local chapter.


Zhon, in his leadership role, sheds light on what it means to lead a community like the ISC2 Malaysia chapter and how this platform is helping cyber security awareness and education.


As the chapter President, Zhon reveals his motivations, challenges, and the most gratifying moments of his tenure. We discuss the chapter's future plans, including expanding its reach beyond the Klang Valley to major cities in Malaysia, and how this can strengthen the cyber security movement into the rest of the country.


A key focus of our discussion is on community-based information sharing – understanding its current state and potential improvements.


We also touch on an often-overlooked aspect in our field - work-life balance, mental health, and burnout, and how ISC2 Malaysia chapter is addressing these vital issues. To wrap up, Zhon shares his insights on managing the intricate balance between his professional responsibilities and personal life.


Tune in for an episode that connects the dots between

leadership, community, and personal growth in the realm of cyber security.
