Pillar 1: Telecommunication Security & National Scam Prevention (ValetShield)
ValetShield is a proposed national anti-scam infrastructure for Malaysia, protecting citizens from fraudulent and spam calls in real time. It builds a unified National Trust Layer that links all mobile networks, regulators and enforcement agencies into one coordinated defence system.
How It Works
ValetShield operates through four security layers:
- Network Layer – authenticates calls and blocks fraudulent calls.
- On-SIM Layer – verifies legitimate SIM identities.
- Over-the-Air Layer – shares real-time threat intelligence.
- On-Device Layer (optional) – gives handset-level scam alerts and reporting.
Key Advantages
- Stop scam calls before they reach users.
- Connects all operators under a regulator-led framework.
- Ensures privacy through token-based verification.
- Enables cross-border cooperation.
Outcome
A proactive, national-scale shield that secures Malaysia’s telecommunications, restores public trust and strengthens the foundation for a safe digital economy.
