Centre to beef up Asia-Pac's response to cybercrime launched

Singapore

THE Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center (FS-ISAC) has teamed up with the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to launch a regional centre in Singapore to fight cybercrime.

The centre will support 49 financial institutions across nine Asia-Pacific countries and provide 24/7 local and global coverage with threat-information sharing, actionable intelligence, as well as tools and resources to respond to incidents. Members of the centre will also benefit from regional meetings, regionally-focused monthly threat calls, webinars on hot topics, cybersecurity training and summits.
