The Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) presented the Operational Technology (OT) Cybersecurity Masterplan to increase the resilience of Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) sectors.

The Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) presented the Operational Technology (OT) Cybersecurity Masterplan to enhance the security and resilience of Singapore’s Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) sectors in delivering essential services.

Operational Technology (OT) systems are becoming a privileged target for highly-sophisticated threat actors, for this reason, CSA is going to propose measures to increase the resilience of these systems to cyber attacks.

“The Masterplan serves to improve cross-sector response to mitigate cyber threats in the OT environment and to strengthen partnerships with industry and stakeholders.” reads the announcement published by the CSA. “The OT Cybersecurity Masterplan outlines key initiatives covering the areas of People, Processes and Technology to uplift the of our CII owners and that operate OT systems.”

Singapore is one of the most hyper-connected commercial hub, for this reason, it is essential to adopt all the necessary countermeasures to repeal any kind of attack.

Key point in the OT Cybersecurity Masterplan include:

  1. Providing OT cybersecurity training to develop human capabilities
  2. Facilitating the sharing of information through an OT Information Sharing and Analysis Centre (OT-ISAC)
  3. Strengthening OT owners’ policies and processes through the issuance of an OT Cybersecurity Code of Practice (CCoP)
  4. Adopting technologies for cyber resilience through Public-Private Partnerships

The Masterplan encourages OT equipment manufacturers and service providers to implement the best cybersecurity practices by design.

“The OT Cybersecurity Masterplan will serve as a strategic blueprint to guide Singapore’s efforts to foster a resilient and secure cyber environment for our OT CII, while taking a balanced approach between security requirements, rapid digitalisation and ease of conducting business-as-usual activities.” concludes the announcement.
