Cyber Resilience Programme

Programme run: 27 – 28 Oct 

Are You Up-to-Date with the Latest Cyber Scam Trends?

In April this year, a finance director of a multinational corporation nearly lost over S$670,000 to a business-related impersonation scam involving digital manipulation. Across Singapore, the threat landscape is becoming increasingly severe — from critical infrastructure attacks by cyber-espionage groups to all top 100 local firms being hit by third-party cyber breaches. Phishing, ransomware, and even infected hardware now pose daily risks to businesses of all sizes.

In the Asia-Pacific region, the rise of AI-driven and deepfake-enabled fraud is accelerating faster than anywhere else, according to cybersecurity firm Group-IB. Around 56% of businesses here have experienced deepfake audio fraud, underscoring the urgent need for organisations to strengthen their cyber resilience as scam tactics grow more sophisticated and diverse.

Introducing the Cyber Resilience Programme, developed in collaboration with Singtel Cybersecurity Institute. This course is designed to equip your team with the essential skills to detect, deter, and defend against today’s fast-evolving cyber scams.

1. Stay Ahead of Threats: AI-related fraud attempts surged by 194% in 2024 compared to 2023, with deepfake phishing becoming one of the most prevalent methods. Learn how these scams work so you can spot and stop them early.

2. Be Prepared to Respond: Build hands-on experience through real-world scam scenarios, enabling your workforce to act effectively when faced with actual attacks.
