Why is cybersecurity more crucial than ever in 2024?The cyber threat landscape continues to evolve rapidly, and Singapore remains a prime target. Just look at the past year:

The cybersecurity market is projected to reach a staggering USD 4.82 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 16.14% during the forecast period (2024-2029), reflecting the significant investments both public and private sectors are making to improve their security measures.
