Singapore listed companies among world's least exposed to cyber threats, finds study

SINGAPORE (Nov 21): Despite its reputation as one of the most connected countries globally, Singapore’s listed companies are among the least exposed to cyber threats, according to findings from Cyber Intelligence House’s latest Cyber Exposure Index (CEI).

The proprietary global scoring system evaluates exposure of listed companies according to signs of disclosure of sensitive information, leaked credentials, and hacker-group activity.

This is done by aggregating data on more than 6,000 listed companies collected from publicly available sources and from data breaches – and ranking them according to the number of findings and the risk that such findings represent, divided by the companies’ total number of employees.
