Singtel opens facility to test, train cybersecurity skills

Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel) has opened a new facility aimed at training enterprises to address cybersecurity threats and testing their networks.

Launched Tuesday, the Singtel Cyber Security Institute spans more than 10,000 square feet and provides skills development and education programmes customised to fit the needs of its enterprise clients, according to the Singapore telco.

These training modules would cater to a range of executives and skills, including c-suite management as well as technology and operational professionals. C-level staff would be trained in cyber threat awareness, risk management and crisis communications readiness, among others, while ops team members would be trained in defence and response capabilities.

Singtel’s group enterprise CEO Bill Chang said: “Based on our engagements with companies in Singapore, more than 85 percent do not have robust cyber response plans or the opportunity to conduct realistic drills to test and sharpen such plans.” For the full article click here
