SIT, IBM to launch Punggol quantum-safe centre by end-2026

Firms can test security tools in a live environment.

The Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) and IBM plan to establish a quantum-safe centre by the end of the year to help organisations assess cybersecurity risks and prepare for post-quantum threats.

The centre, which will be located at SIT’s Punggol Campus, will identify vulnerabilities in existing cybersecurity systems and map out steps to adopt quantum-safe solutions.

Companies will also be able to test quantum-safe technologies in the Punggol Digital District’s live testbed environment using IBM tools, such as the Guardium Cryptography Manager and Quantum Safe Explorer.

The facility is expected to serve enterprises, technology practitioners, researchers, and government stakeholders.

SIT and IBM will introduce two Continuing Education and Training programmes through the centre later in the year.

A one-day Executive Programme will target business leaders, board members, chief information security officers, and senior technology decision-makers.

Meanwhile, a three-day Foundation Programme will cater to cybersecurity practitioners, software developers, engineers and IT professionals.

Both will cover post-quantum cryptography, enterprise migration planning, cryptographic risk discovery, governance, and security architecture modernisation.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
