Devinder Singh: Building a Culture of Cyber Intel Sharing in APAC

FS-ISAC Episode 33

 In APAC, cyber defenders are likelier to share tactical threat intel rather than strategic information, often out of fear of suggesting they were breached, says Devinder Singh, Maybank’s CISO. But getting intel out fast – and across borders – is key to the sector's defense.

After all, sharing is a shield, and doing the right thing is often doing the smart thing.
