The NADI Workshop on Cyber Security: Emerging Challenges and Responses was organised by S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS) at the Traders Hotel, Singapore on 20-22 November 2013. Mr Tan Seng Chye, Senior Fellow, RSIS delivered the opening remarks and chaired the workshop. Mr John Yong, Director (Infocomm Security & Assurance), Infocomm Development Authority, Singapore gave a keynote address on Singapore’s response to emerging cyber security challenges. Ms Caitriona Helena Heinl, Research Fellow, Centre of Excellence for National Security (CENS) as an expert, also presented on cyber security challenges at the Asean level and possible responses.

The workshop discussed Asean member states’ perspectives of cyber security challenges and agreed that greater cooperation was needed in order to safeguard the cyber security infrastructure of the region. The militaries of the Asean countries could play an important role as part of the national efforts to combat cyber security challenges and threats, and to ensure their effectiveness in protecting national security. The ADMM track could also, within the framework of the ADMM-Plus, seek the cooperation of the Plus counties to share their experiences with Asean countries and assist them in developing human capacities and explore ways to combat cyber security threats.
