SearchInform Strengthens Southeast Asia Presence with Kuala Lumpur Office

On July 3, SearchInform held the Grand Opening of its office in Kuala Lumpur. The official ceremony brought together more than 90 partners, customers, and information security experts from across the country. Attendees included representatives of leading Malaysian system integrators, technology partners, managed security service providers, and enterprise customers, including REDtone, CLL Systems, Cogniva, IT Essentials, iPlanet Solution, Mitracorp Resources, Wiki Labs, Cydentiq, and others.

SearchInform, an international provider of information security solutions, is strengthening its presence in Southeast Asia to help local organizations improve data protection and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. The company’s portfolio includes DLP, DCAP, and SIEM systems, as well as a Next-Gen DLP solution with an integrated AI Assistant.

In his welcome speech, SearchInform Founder Lev Matveev noted that the launch of the local office marks an important step in the company’s long-term development strategy in Malaysia:

“Malaysia’s digital economy is growing rapidly, making corporate data increasingly valuable – and increasingly exposed to risks of leakage, misuse, and unauthorized access. By establishing a local presence in Kuala Lumpur, we aim to provide not only advanced software, but also continuous support for partners and customers throughout the entire journey: from consulting and testing to implementation and everyday use. We also plan to actively develop our presence in the country through local events, partner PR support, and both offline and online training programs for information security professionals.”

The program continued with a presentation by Francis Yeoh, Country Director for Malaysia, who outlined the key advantages of SearchInform software, introduced the partner program, and shared the company’s plans for further development in the region.

SearchInform’s regional partners commented on the Malaysian cybersecurity market, the company’s solutions, and prospects for future cooperation.

“We attended the event to learn more about SearchInform’s latest advancements in insider threat mitigation, Data Loss Prevention, and risk management analytics. In Malaysia’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, our clients rely on us to source top-tier, proactive security solutions. The event exceeded our expectations, providing clear and practical insights into how SearchInform bridges workforce productivity monitoring and deep data protection, which is precisely what modern enterprises need,” noted Yap Ming Sern, CEO of IT ESSENTIALS (MALAYSIA) SDN BHD.

“The demand for robust information security solutions in Malaysia is at an all-time high and will only continue to accelerate. With stricter compliance mandates around the Personal Data Protection Act and the rise of digital workforce vulnerabilities, organizations can no longer afford to overlook internal risks. Because SearchInform tackles the human factor of security so effectively – offering deep visibility into data flows without disrupting business operations – I expect local market interest in its products to remain exceptionally strong,” added Yap Ming Sern.

Wee Kim Leng, Deputy Sales Director, Cloud & Cyber Security at REDtone, noted that the event helped the company gain a better understanding of SearchInform’s cybersecurity and insider risk management solutions, including their differentiation from other vendors, real-world use cases, and partner opportunities.

“The demand for cybersecurity solutions in Malaysia continues to grow as organizations become increasingly concerned about data breaches, insider threats, regulatory compliance, and the protection of sensitive information. However, as SearchInform is still relatively new to the local market, building brand awareness and educating customers on its unique capabilities will be essential. With the right market awareness initiatives and partner engagement, I believe there is significant potential for SearchInform to establish a strong presence and generate sustained interest in the country,” said Wee Kim Leng.

At the end of the program, SearchInform held individual discussions with potential partners. More than 20 companies expressed their readiness to integrate SearchInform solutions into their cybersecurity portfolios and begin pilot deployments with key customers.

The new Kuala Lumpur office marks another step in SearchInform’s continued expansion across Southeast Asia, alongside its offices in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and Jakarta, Indonesia.
