Three hacked accounts every minute turned what felt like an distant headline into a lived emergency. The Philippines recorded 1.3 million breached accounts in 2025, and that single fact should unsettle every small and medium business owner reading this. Numbers are not just statistics; they are the thin red lineContinue Reading
Budget 2026 makes one thing clear: security is non-negotiable. The government’s signal is unmistakable — security-related spending will rise as threats grow more complex, the digital domain becomes more contested, and the margin for error narrows. This is not an abstract line in a speech. It is a call toContinue Reading
Singapore refuses to be cowed by cyberthreats. Small state, small company, but not small resolve. The recent debate — should small states name and shame giant adversaries that seem untouchable? — has a sharper edge than polite diplomatic posturing. This is not an academic exercise. It is a survival questionContinue Reading
Singapore has never been just a backdrop for defence drills; it has become the arena where modern digital warfare is tested under the harshest, most honest light.

This operation tested Singapore’s resilience like nothing before.

The revelation is chilling but not catastrophic: no sensitive customer data was exfiltrated and core 5G systems remained protected. Still, the episode is a blunt reminder — resilience is not optional. What really happenedContinue Reading
UNC3886 has not merely knocked on Singapore’s telecom doors; it has stood at the threshold, probing, mapping, and patiently waiting for an opportunity. The discovery that all four major telcos—Singtel, StarHub, M1 and Simba Telecom—were targeted is a clarion call. This campaign is not petty vandalism. It is a deliberate,Continue Reading
Moltbook’s tumble should be a wake-up call for every small and medium enterprise in Singapore that thinks speed equals safety. A platform built to let AI agents swap code and gossip managed to expose private messages, email addresses of more than 6,000 people and over a million credentials. That isContinue Reading
