The confidence to take risks in the digital age

Digital trust and cybersecurity

Shaping a secure digital society

We’re living through a decade defined by digital transformation. To stay ahead, you need more than resilience—you need digital trust. That’s what customers, suppliers and everyone connected to your business expect.

Growth today demands that you adapt to the new trust dynamic. We’re here to help you earn and build that trust. Whether you’re reassessing your cybersecurity or ready to invest in new capabilities, we will give you the confidence to move forward, take risks and shape your digital future.

What’s keeping CISOs awake at night?

The role of digital trust in today’s accelerated digital landscape is more pronounced than ever. Security leaders are working closely with business teams to strengthen organisational resilience. Digital and data security are more integrated—with new layers of protection due to real-time risk monitoring systems. As a result, cyber professionals are levelling the playing field with attackers, pushing them back and fending them off to secure the future of business.

Today, adopting a digital-first strategy is key to putting businesses back on a steady growth path. And digital trust is an integral component of this strategy.

The best defence is often offence. If organisations are able to threat-hunt effectively and find cyber attackers before they strike, the battle is half won.

Keeping government regulations in mind is key for organisations to holistically embed cybersecurity into every major business decision. The Singapore Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) is updating the Personal Data Protection Act to increase the responsibility of organisations in the event of data loss—via mandatory reporting and increased penalty. This brings cyber regulations to the forefront, with an increased need to invest in capabilities processes and technologies to prioritise these considerations in all business decisions.

With new cyber crimes constantly discovered and reported in the news—especially when attackers have the opportunity to get creative due to remote working (new phishing emails, social engineering attacks, hidden malware and more) with newer and more sophisticated attacks—businesses need to be ready to respond to a wide range of threats ranging from nation states and organised crime, to ‘hacktivists’ and insiders.

Post COVID-19, CISOs are likely to be involved in business decisions more than ever. To instil confidence in stakeholders, the key is to ensure that the cybersecurity function is delivering value and contributing to your firm’s overall business goals.
