Committee of Supply 2025 debate, Day 2: Neil Parekh Nimil Rajnikant on how the SAF’s digital branch works with other agencies
Cyber threats pose a significant risk to the security and economic stability of nations, especially for a global hub like Singapore, said NMP Neil Parekh Nimil Rajnikant in parliament on Monday (Mar 3). He noted that as the digital landscape evolves, so does the battlefield - which is why it was important that the Singapore Armed Forces established its Digital and Intelligence Service (DIS) in 2022. However, as cyber defence is multifaceted, he asked how the DIS is working with other government agencies to respond to threats and keep Singapore’s digital infrastructure secure.
