Janil Puthucheary on new anti-SMS spoofing registry
More than 1,000 protected SMS sender IDs have been registered by 25 organisations in the new Singapore SMS Sender ID Registry (SSIR). The Government is looking at whether to make it mandatory for banks and Government agencies to register their sender IDs on the anti-SMS spoofing registry, said Senior Minister of State for Communications and Information Janil Puthucheary. Answering an MP’s questions in Parliament on Monday (Apr 4), he said the SSIR takes a more proactive approach and provides greater control than an earlier pilot programme. It also offers a more affordable pricing model to enable more widespread participation, especially for small- and medium-sized enterprises.
