AI Weekly Malaysia

A Malay Mail Tech piece (published 30 Sep 2026) argues that spam has moved beyond email into internet-connected calendars, citing cybersecurity reports from Sublime that show a sharp increase in spam calendar invites, particularly affecting Google Workspace users, with predictions of continued growth. The article's stated remedies are reviewing calendar settings, limiting access, and consulting trusted cybersecurity experts. It names no figures, versions, affected organisations, or specific attack tooling.

Why: There is little here to act on: no incident counts, no named vulnerabilities, no Malaysia-specific detail, and the mitigation advice is generic. The one concrete claim is that calendar invites are now a spam/phishing channel aimed at Google Workspace users — so if your team runs Workspace, treat calendar invites as a second inbox and decide who can add events to shared calendars, rather than assuming email filtering covers you. Beyond that, this article does not justify a settings change on its own; wait for a report with numbers or a vendor advisory before reconfiguring anything.
