Cyber Security Control

Cybersecurity control refers to the policies, processes, and technologies used to protect digital systems, networks, and data from cyber threats. These controls aim to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information, safeguard business continuity, and comply with legal and regulatory requirements in an increasingly connected digital economy.

Key Components of
Cybersecurity Control

Access Controls

Restrict system and data access to authorized users only.

Network Security

Use of firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and secure configurations to protect against unauthorized access.

Data Encryption

Protect sensitive data in transit and at rest using encryption technologies.

Endpoint Security

Anti-virus, anti-malware, and mobile device management systems to safeguard devices.

Security Monitoring

Continuous threat monitoring, vulnerability scanning, and anomaly detection.

Incident Response Planning

Predefined procedures to detect, respond to, and recover from cyber incidents.

Employee Awareness and Training

Ongoing cybersecurity training to prevent social engineering and phishing attacks.

Third-Party Risk Management

Assessment of cybersecurity practices across supply chain partners and vendors.

International Regulatory Landscape

Various countries and international frameworks have established comprehensive cybersecurity laws and standards:

  • Singapore Cybersecurity Act 2018
  • NIST Cybersecurity Framework (United States)
  • China's Cybersecurity Law
  • Japan's Active Cyber Defence Law
  • South Korea's Information and Communications Network Act
