Personal data privacy is a crucial aspect of information management. Strategic information management must consider the data security and must take all the necessary practices to ensure personal data protected in a closed or open network environment. Data privacy legislation has been formulated by the government to ensure the ethics of handling sensitive information such as personal, banking and another aspect of information like health and medical information must be according to law stipulated by the acts. Malaysia as a growing electronic government provider in the region has adopted several legislation to ensure the enforcement of the data protection achieved the international standard to ensure global recognition especially by international business in enhancing foreign direct investment (FDI) and to protect local enterprises.
