In the present day and age, cybersecurity has become one of the most important issues enterprises face. With the advent of new technologies and increasing connectivity, companies are more vulnerable than ever to cyberattacks.
Digital transformation (DX) is challenging enough for corporates with scale-appropriate budgets. The complexity of technology integration, the stakeholder hills to climb, and the constant push-pull between market-driven needs and operational stability make any digital transformation agenda exasperating.
In today’s age of connectivity, having a telephony system that fulfils your business needs is vital to success. Selecting the best business phone system solution for your organisation can be difficult, especially if you’re unfamiliar with the current options in the market. Having a good understanding of phone systems and their features is essential to making the right decision.
The telephone has served us well for nearly 150 years. The great strides in telephony innovation have seen us through industrialisation and globalisation. For enterprises, we are now at a point in technology adoption where we may be close to the next phase in telephony innovation – where we might not need legacy phone systems at all.
The coronavirus has really done a number on information security infrastructure. As if a public health crisis weren’t enough, threat actors have been taking advantage of sharp changes in IT behaviour and business imperatives to sneak into unsuspecting networks. Ransomware criminals have been around for decades, but the drastic rise in cyber-attacks over the last couple of years is concerning.
A recent Microsoft study indicates that APAC experiences a higher-than-average encounter rate for malware and ransomware attacks – 1.6 and 1.7 times higher respectively than the rest of the world. Regional financial hubs Singapore and Hong Kong recorded the highest drive-by download attack volume in 2019, over 3 times the regional and global average.
Our increasingly digital world is opening up business opportunities like never before. With exponential growth comes an unprecedented transaction volume that inevitably opens up security risks. The Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) reports that attacks involving ransomware, malicious command &control servers and botnet drones have increased drastically, and phishing, website defacements and cybercrime continue to plague the region.
With Singapore’s extended circuit breaker in place, it may be the first time in many years that your business has had to close for an extended period. This has serious implications for many businesses, who need to manage lost revenue and decreased footfall in the face of still-rolling costs, and much more. For some businesses out there, this creates severe cashflow setbacks that could make or break the company.
In a report published in 2019, the Cyber Security Agency (CSA) highlighted 5 major security threats that predominated Singapore’s cyber landscape. Malware, short for malicious software, comprised one of these threats.
