Cyber Trust

Raise the bar for cybersecurity excellence

In an era where cyber threats are increasingly sophisticated, organisations must go beyond basic cybersecurity to safeguard their digital assets. CSA has enhanced the Cyber Trust mark, empowering organisations to address cyber risks not just in traditional IT systems, but also in Cloud Security, Operational Technology (OT) Security, and AI Security. This enhancement enables businesses to stay ahead of emerging threats and reinforce digital trust among stakeholders.

The Cyber Trust mark is suited for organisations with more extensive digitalised business operations. These organisations are likely to have higher risk levels which require them to invest in expertise and resources to manage and protect their IT infrastructure and systems. The Cyber Trust mark adopts a risk-based approach to guide organisations to understand their risk profiles and identify relevant cybersecurity preparedness areas required to mitigate these risks.

The Cyber Trust mark serves as a mark of distinction for organisations to prove that they have put in place good cybersecurity practices and measures that are commensurate with their cybersecurity risk profile.

What’s new in the enhanced Cyber Trust certification?

The enhanced Cyber Trust certifications will equip organisations with the necessary security controls and best practices to address emerging cyber risks in key areas:

• Cloud Security: Ensuring secure cloud adoption and management to protect critical data and services

• Operational Technology (OT) Security: Safeguarding industrial control systems from cyber threats

• AI Security: Implementing best practices for securing AI-driven applications and mitigating AI-specific vulnerabilities

By obtaining Cyber Trust certification, organisations demonstrate leadership in cybersecurity and their commitment to safeguarding sensitive digital environments beyond classical IT security.
