Cyber Security

Infocomm technology is one of Singapore’s most significant service sectors, so the use of secure, resilient and robust technologies are critical to ensure our national reputation as a trustworthy and secure business hub. The global cyber security market which is expected to grow to about US$120.1 billion by 2017 at a compound annual growth rate of 11.3% from 2012 to 2017, spells exciting opportunities for our investment in this area.

 

Cyber Security

  • Trustworthy systems: develop new approaches for risk assessment, vulnerability detection and security enhancement in complex cyber-physical systems.
  • Cyber situational awareness: build scientific foundation for a theoretically-grounded and empirically-validated algebraic model of data that supports a wide range of scalable analytical techniques to enhance cyber situational assessment and awareness.
  • Insider threats: multi-disciplinary study for detecting and tracking insider threats.
  • Cyber-physical systems security: modeling cyber-physical attacks in perspective of novel computing devices and architectures.
  • Scalable malware and vulnerability detection using programming analysis for binary, source code and JavaScripts.


Achievement

  • Hardware security: identifying security flaws in the testing phase of integrated circuits.
  • Security verification for security protocols, runtime security policy, mobile computing, trust platform and cloud computing.
