Recent incidences of cyber security and data breaches in the Singapore healthcare sector have shaken public confidence in the public sector’s handling of personal data. The SingHealth breach of data and the reported leak of personal information of HIV patients have raised the spectre of other more damaging and widespread occurrences to come.

Board directors may ask what can be learnt from these incidences and how they can prepare their companies against cyber attacks. Cyber security is within the realm of a board’s responsibility. Principle 9 of the newly revised Code of Corporate Governance provides that the board is “responsible for the governance of risk and ensures that management maintains a sound system of risk management and internal controls, to safeguard the interests of the company and its shareholders”.

SID has gathered a panel of experts and practitioners to share their experience and knowledge, and to engage participants in a discussion on an area of considerable importance that could impact business confidence and long-term stability in their companies.
