(i) Increasing cybercrime awareness in the private sector 42. SPF regularly engages key private sector stakeholders (e.g. stakeholders in the IT and banking industries) to enhance cybercrime prevention efforts. CSA and the Singapore Infocomm Technology Federation (SITF) lead the Cyber Security Awareness Alliance (CSAA), which includes SPF, the Media Development Authority of Singapore (MDA), iDA, the Media Literacy Council, as well as other IT companies. Through CSAA, SPF works closely with IT companies in Singapore, to raise awareness of cybercrimes in the private sector and in Government, and to encourage the adoption of good cyber hygiene practices. (ii) Developing capabilities to combat cybercrime 43. SPF has partnered local research institutes to develop new cybercrime investigations and forensics capabilities: a. Cyber-Forensics Project Under the National Cyber Security Research & Development Programme (NCRP), SPF is working with the Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R) to enhance capabilities in digital forensics. b. Video trawling and analytics SPF has partnered the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) to develop deep learning capabilities to enhance object detection and recognition, including the detection and recognition of everyday objects, such as caps, backpacks and car models. c. Online and social media analytics SPF and Temasek Polytechnic have jointly developed a tool to assist investigators in advanced social media analysis, so as to identify useful leads for cybercrime investigations. d. Malware analysis tools MHA is working with industry to develop customised malware analysis tools. This will enable more effective incident triage and case assessment by cybercrime investigators. 44. MHA has also worked with IHLs to create conducive environments for the development of cyber-related innovations. One example is MHA and Temasek Polytechnic’s joint establishment of the Temasek Advanced LEarning, Nurturing and Testing (TALENT) Lab, which serves as a platform for students from IHLs to design and validate innovations, to see if they are effective in dealing with cyber-threats. The TALENT Lab will foster deeper cooperation between MHA and IHLs in the areas of cyber-forensics and cyber-investigations, and facilitate knowledge sharing among students from the different IHLs.
