New SingPass with tougher security features to be launched in July

It will have two-factor authentication.

The Infocomm Development Authority (IDA) today revealed that an enhanced SingPass will be launched in July this year.

Enhancements will include an improved user interface, mobile-friendly features and stronger security capabilities.

The new SingPAss will have Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for e-government transactions, particularly for those involving sensitive data.

This could be a one-time “second factor” password delivered through Short Messaging Service (SMS) or OneKey token.

To enjoy the enhanced features by July, users must set up their 2-step verification by registering for SMS or OneKey token, activating using pin mailer password, and linking it with their SingPass account.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
