Singapore, UN extend cybersecurity programme for three years

The UN-Singapore Cyber Programme aims to address AI and online scams.

The UN-Singapore Cyber Programme (UNSCP), launched in 2018 for the cyber capacity of UN member states, has been extended for three years, starting 2026 to 2028.

The UNSCP aims to enable UN-member states to understand and address evolving cyber threats through international cooperation and intergovernmental discussions, the Cybersecurity Agency of Singapore (CSA) said.

“The renewed partnership will provide a stronger focus on the nexus between cybersecurity and emerging threats, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), quantum, and online Scams,” the CSA said.

In the UNSCP extension, CSA and the United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs will discuss the threats with UN agencies, states, and other non-government stakeholders through workshops and an e-learning course, the agency said.

The programme also initiated the UN-Singapore Cyber Fellowship, which runs up to twice a year to gather national authorities and to enable them to discuss cybersecurity threats and craft national policy.

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.
