KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA, August 24, 2024: TechCreate, a trusted proprietary payment and managed services provider, solidifies its market position through a series of strategic partnerships and industry accolades.
Showcasing its solutions at Cyber Digital Services, Defence, and Security Asia (CyberDSA) 2023, TechCreate Group CEO Lim Heng Hai said, “We have secured the exclusive vendor partnership with the prestigious Korea Advanced Information Security Solutions (KAISS) consortium, which aims to deliver comprehensive Korean cybersecurity solutions to a global audience. This milestone highlights our industry presence and ability to form strategic alliances for our competitive advantage.” KAISS includes SecuLetter, NETAND, and Somansa, with more joining soon.
