KUALA LUMPUR: My Digital ID Sdn Bhd aims to achieve 17 million MyDigital ID registered accounts from Malaysians by the end of 2026, as compared to 7.3 million accounts as at the end of last year. Deputy chief executive officer Azrin Aris said the company expects to hit 13 million MyDigital ID accounts by the middle of this year. "As of today, we have reached almost 10 million (accounts), and our target is a little further to reach 13 million (accounts). Azrin said the number of MyDigital ID-registered accounts increased significantly (10 million accounts) as of today, up from 1.8 million in the same period last year, driven by stronger awareness of crime and cybersecurity among Malaysians. He said MyDigital ID makes it easier for users to remember their usernames and passwords, especially as more and more applications require them.
