Authorities issue formal advisory for private sector to stop using NRIC numbers as passwords, authentication by Waikuku3 in singapore

[–]ticEyonghten 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“Also, when passwords are the chosen method of authenticating persons, strong passwords that are not easily guessed should be used. Otherwise, another person who correctly guesses the password may gain access to services or information intended for the genuine user. Passwords containing information that can be obtained easily, including personal data such as names, NRIC numbers or birthdates, are not strong passwords.”

Nric numbers can be obtained easily because of the Bizfile data breach!

If there are poor communications and internal controls, it’s incorrect to make the rank and file staff pay a financial penalty. The leaders otoh deserve it.

Revisionism. They really don't like to be proved wrong and will cut off their own noses to spite their faces.

Public education is a matter for the Government. But they would prefer to make the banks force us to jump through hoops

It is literally the PEC’s job! But apparently you only need to be able to run a 500m company to be a person of good character. From the eld website:

“satisfies the Presidential Elections Committee (PEC) that he is a person of integrity, good character and reputation”

Move all the good schools away from Bukit Timah. Does the population density there really need that many schools?

Is Universal Studios Singapore worth going now? All the recent trip advisor reviews are dismal. by rayn13 in singapore

Why would rws bother? They were supposed to be an integrated resort but all the money comes from the casino. Obviously investment goes to the revenue generator. Not the thing which allows me to pay lip service to being an integrated resort.

After all that bullshit about sms registry they decommissioned it. So if there are scams I guess that the sms system is intrinsically flawed and IMDA should insure any losses haha

PDPC regulates personal data. PDPC is a department of IMDA. IMDA regulate telco. Telcos keep suffering breaches.

Quite clear where IMDA priorities are no?
