He said, "Today cybersecurity isn't just about keeping our company safe or the industry safe, it includes keeping our government safe and achieving political stability."He added, "Cybersecurity is not a technological challenge, it's a human challenge. 95 per cent of all cyber-attacks are due to human error. One of the biggest challenges we face today is the talent shortage in cybersecurity. The estimation is that there is a shortage of 4 million cybersecurity professionals in the world. Our aim is to solve this talent shortage."Towards the end, Dr Janil Puthucheary, Senior Minister of State for Communications and Information and Health, Government of Singapore, presented the awards to the CTF competitors. He congratulated all the winners and motivated others to qualify for this competition. He addressed the participants saying, "I encourage students to learn cybersecurity because they will play an important role in protecting cyberspace as we move forward. They will play an important role in creating a safe digital environment for everyone with benefits that are not just economical but personal and affect the lives of people. And as a growing number of industries are digitised, cybersecurity professionals will have the privilege to practise their skills across different industries."With its aim to expand to other geographies, ThriveDX is eying partnership across the region and within the APAC, India stands out as having a large protentional for a booming cybersecurity industry.
