“It is precisely when things are going reasonably well that we must take action to fortify our defences,” Mrs Teo said, adding that the Government regularly stress-tests its systems through tabletop exercises.

Government services in the Republic, as well as local banks, telcos and hospitals, were not affected by the outage, said the Ministry of Digital Development and Information on July 19.

Singapore takes tabletop exercises seriously, Mrs Teo added

The whole government also conducts yearly exercises, with nearly 100 government agencies having exercised their crisis management responses as a team in the past three years.

“These exercises are helpful in refining our emergency responses, thus building confidence in our people, processes and technology,” Mrs Teo said.

She added that the Government ensures that its technology is “up to date and resilient against outages” during each exercise.

look like she has saved Singapore from the tech outage !

look like CrowdStrike and Microsoft must employ Josephine Teo as CEO or Chairwoman of their companies !

Only idiots like her do Level 1

Because she cannot handle Level 2

And too stewpig to lead Level 3

If she is really so capable to do Level 2 and 3,

then why her dumb InforComm Ministry cannot replace Crowdstrike and other 20 Cyber companies in the world?

Local banks, Telcos and Hospitals are not affected because they do not use / link MS Office Suit but independent SAP softwares and others.

I am not aware that there is Crisis Plan but sure have lots of Wayang Plans that Josephine Teo is showing now. I am surprised that she is still as desperate to hold on to her Minister job when she is not competent in many ways.

No lah.
Likely only airport use crowdstrike but local banks, telcos and hospitals using other security protections or systems

Anyway patch or update should not be automatic.
