Singtel enters Japan's cyber security market

It inked a partnership with TIS.

Singtel announced a partnership with TIS Inc, a subsidiary of the Japanese systems integration company TIS Intec Group, to offer cyber security services in Japan to help businesses build cyber resilience and protect critical infrastructure.

According to OCBC Investment Research, as part of the partnership, Singtel’s subsidiary Trustwave, will establish in Tokyo a new Security Operation Centre to provide TIS Managed Security Services, powered by Singtel’s subsidiary Trustwave. Trustwave’s new SOC will enhance its ability to offer TIS’ customers round-the clock monitoring of their networks and rapid response to cyber-attacks.

"We believe this partnership is positive for Singtel over the longer-term as it continues to diversify away from being just a telco towards providing cyber security services, which in our view, is a growing industry with the increasing digitalization of data around the world," the brokerage firm stated.

The firm believes this partnership will also help Singtel establish its presence in the region as a cybersecurity service provider

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.
