During the recent two-week Exercise SG Ready conducted by MINDEF and the Singapore Business Federation, over 30 per cent of the phishing emails were opened, and about 17 per cent of over 4,500 employees clicked on phishing links in emails sent to them.

These findings underscore the importance of agencies, businesses, and communities coming together to enhance cyber awareness.

So, how challenging is it to discern a phishing email from a legitimate one?

On this episode of Morning Shot, Liu Yang, Professor of Computing & Data Science at NTU shares his insights.
