CHAPTER 1 CYBER THREATS SINGAPORE FACES 8 Chapter 1 | Cyber Threats Singapore Faces This inaugural edition of the Singapore Cyber Landscape 2016 will provide a closer look at the cybersecurity situation here, including qualitative and quantitative reviews of the nation’s cyber health, and some of the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore’s (CSA) response and recovery efforts. On the frontline of such efforts is the National Cyber Security Command (NCSC), which monitors and responds to cyber threats, and research and makes sense of the implications of these threats to Singapore’s CII, businesses and individuals. The NCSC carries out such work through three teams, namely the National Cyber Threat Monitoring Centre (NCTMC), National Cyber Incident Response Centre (NCIRC), and National Cyber Threat Analysis Centre (NCTAC). Through the NCSC, data from incidents in Singapore’s cyberspace are analysed. “Singapore’s cyberspace” will include domain names with “.sg” or Singapore-mentions, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses used in Singapore, or Internet Service Providers (ISPs) based in Singapore. In the event of major cyber incidents affecting Singapore’s CIIs, CSA, supported by NCSC, will take on the role of the national incident manager, coordinating cross-sector incident response, implementing specific national-level mitigation measures, and providing incident response assistance to the affected CIIs. 9
