Welcome to ISMG's GovWare 2024 Compendium. GovWare, Singapore's premier cybersecurity trade event held as part of Singapore International Cyber Week, brought together a community of cybersecurity professionals, including policymakers, tech innovators and information security leaders.
As OT systems become more interconnected, traditional air gaps disappear, creating new risks, said Joseph Carson, chief security scientist and advisory CISO at Delinea. The convergence of IT and OT environments requires a stronger focus on protecting digital identities and access controls.
Organizations mistakenly believe their operational technology systems are air-gapped and immune to cyberthreats. Dawn Cappelli, director of OT-CERT at Dragos, discusses why these assumptions are dangerous security gaps and why organizations need to rethink their approach to OT security.
A "road map to resilience" approach helps organizations balance immediate, low-cost security improvements with complex, long-term risk reduction initiatives in industrial control systems, said Mex Martinot, vice president and global head of industrial cybersecurity at Siemens Energy.
With 75% of cybersecurity leaders facing the worst threat landscape they've seen and 90% reporting workforce shortages, emotional intelligence has become crucial for effective leadership and team retention, said Tara Wisniewski, EVP of advocacy, global markets and member engagement at ISC2.
Derek Manky, chief security strategist and global vice president for threat intelligence at Fortinet, shares the importance of public-private partnerships in cybersecurity. There's a lot of vetted interest and mutual benefit in such partnerships, and the will to move forward is strong, he said.
Traditional data center security approaches do not translate very well to cloud environments as cloud computing and Layer 7 applications have fundamentally changed the way organizations should implement security controls, said Traceable AI's Richard Bird.
The proliferation of data in today’s hyperconnected world presents both opportunities and risks. Rigo Van den Broeck, executive vice president of cybersecurity at Mastercard, said the sheer scale and accessibility of data require organizations to adopt proactive cybersecurity strategies.
