Nearly three in five businesses and non-profits in Singapore lack the knowledge or experience to implement cybersecurity effectively, according to a recent survey by the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA).

“This [finding] is not at all surprising. Cyber risks have increased and continue to evolve quickly. This has contributed to the shortfall in cyber professionals; even the most sophisticated organisations struggle to keep up,” says Josephine Teo, Singapore’s Minister for Communications and Information. She was speaking at the opening of the ISTARI Charter Asia-Pacific Cyber Congress earlier today.

To help organisations better protect themselves, CSA, the Singapore Management University (SMU), and ISTARI will be running the third run of the Cybersecurity Strategic Leadership Programme. The programme will equip current and future generations of local cybersecurity leaders with a deep level of understanding of global key drivers which shape cybersecurity strategies.
