Abstract

This paper gives a snapshot of the current state of cyber security and public awareness, using Singapore as an example of a well-connected economy. Public awareness focuses on sharing common cyber security best practices, which are essential in reducing the risk of cyber security breaches. The paper then explores how current cyber threats have responded to the spread of public awareness, by evolving in ways that can overcome the common cyber security best practices or can even exploit them in some cases. It goes on to describe how the countermeasures to these evolved cyber threats must also evolve in turn and suggests processes and technologies which can be developed to mitigate these evolved cyber threats.
