The UK Cyber Security Council have announced that Singapore and the United Kingdom, have expressed their intention to jointly build and develop a cyber security profession that is clearly-defined and future-proofed.

The Governments of Singapore and the United Kingdom recognise that the cyber security skills gap is a global issue that will require a collaborative approach from the international community.

Addressing this gap will reduce cyber risk to organisations and citizens across our economies and support the growth of the sector workforce in the coming years.

Accordingly, Singapore and the United Kingdom recognise the need to work together to improve and champion the cyber security profession. Earlier today, Singapore’s Minister for Communications and Information and Minister-in-charge of Smart Nation and Cybersecurity, Mrs Josephine Teo, and UK Cabinet Office Minister, Baroness Neville-Rolfe, met on the side-lines of the Singapore International Cyber Week 2023.

The two ministers had a wide-ranging discussion on Singapore-UK cyber cooperation and reaffirmed a mutual intent to collaborate on developing the cyber security profession and skills.

Both countries have agreed to cooperate on the following:

• Building and aligning a common knowledge base in cyber security
• Facilitating a cyber skills dialogue
• Mapping knowledge and skills required to areas of practice in cyber security
• Exploring the possibility of opening the UK Cyber Security Council's Professional Chartership to cyber practitioners in Singapore who may be keen to apply. This includes introducing the Council to UK businesses located in Singapore. Learn More /...
