SUMMARY:Div0 x CREST Meetup 2025
DESCRIPTION:Post-event resources \nExploring bold ideas in Singapore’s cybersecurity ecosystem. \nOur second Division Zero (Div0) x CREST Meetup of the year brought together Singapore’s cyber community for an evening of unconventional thinking and real-world insights. \nPaul Craig\, CEO of Vantage Point Security Group\, showed how creative\, lateral thinking can crack problems traditional methods miss using an Ethereum private key challenge to illustrate the power of curiosity and hacker mindset. \nSandeep Hodkasia\, Founder and CEO of AppSecure Security\, shared how attacker psychology drives deeper\, more impactful penetration testing\, spotlighting discoveries like the Meta.AI prompt leak and WeWork data exposure. \nThank you to Div0 and our Member community for inspiring conversations and fresh perspectives. \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n  \n\n  \nThe next Div0 x CREST Meetup\, in partnership with our Community Supporter\, Division Zero (Div0)\, and CyberSG TIG Collaboration Centre! \nThis month\, we will be featuring two speakers from our Member community: \n– Paul Craig (CEO\, Vantage Point Security Group) takes on the impossible — attempting to break an Ethereum private key through pure creativity and hacker mindset. The odds of breaking an Ethereum private key based on an ECC curve within a 256bit field are roughly 1 in 115 quattuorvigintillion (115 and 75 zeros). In theory\, there is a higher chance that Paul cures cancer\, the world explodes\, and aliens land on earth. These incredible odds are his starting point\, armed with an attitude of “nothing is really impossible\, only incredibly difficult\,” Paul sets on the task of guessing a private key to find real cryptocurrency money using only creativity\, curiosity\, and a positive hacker attitude. Was he successful? Come see his talk and find out. \n– Sandeep H. (Founder & CEO\, AppSecure Security) shows how thinking like an attacker led to real-world discoveries — from Meta.AI’s prompt leak to WeWork’s data exposure.In this session\, Sandeep will share how a hacker-focused mindset has shaped his approach to penetration testing — moving beyond automated scans and compliance checks to real-world attack simulations that uncover impactful vulnerabilities. Sandeep will walk you through some of his notable findings\, including the Meta.AI prompt leak\, a WeWork data exposure\, and a Zomato blind XSS that escalated from a mobile app to the admin portal\, to illustrate how thinking like an attacker reveals what traditional testing often misses. He will also discuss how he applies red-team scenarios\, offensive research techniques\, and attacker psychology to identify critical security vulnerabilities and secure modern tech companies — from AI systems and APIs to complex cloud-native infrastructures. \nTo RSVP and confirm your attendance\, register on BOTH links below: \n🔗 Meetup Page: https://www.meetup.com/div0_sg/events/311850604/ \n🔗 Google Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfquNcX_rUqoyoOXcamhnNSyYi9ZCPbz7TxcmiTqZsM1Ft9ng/viewform \nAgenda \n\n6:30 PM: Registration & Networking (30mins)\n7:00 PM: Introduction & Announcement (15mins)\n7:15 PM: “y² = x³ + 7 (Breaking the Curve)” by Paul Craig (30mins)\n7:50 PM: “Hacker-Focused Penetration Testing: Harnessing Human Intelligence in the Age of AI” by Sandeep H. (30mins)\n8:25 PM: Q&A Discussion (15mins)\nTill Late: Networking\n\nSee you there!

SUMMARY:AI x Cybersecurity Summit 2025
DESCRIPTION:Post-event resources  \nExploring the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. \nLast month at the AI x Cybersecurity Summit in Singapore\, our Asia Council Representative\, John Lloyd\, shared insights on “Raising the Standard: The Value of CREST Certifications in your Cybersecurity Career”. \nJohn highlighted how our globally recognised certifications are contributing to the development of maturing cyber ecosystems across Asia and beyond\, supporting both individual career growth and the overall development of the cybersecurity workforce. \nHe also joined a fireside chat discussing the impact of AI on critical infrastructure\, healthcare\, and finance\, and the evolving skills needed to defend against AI-driven threats. \nThank you to our Training Partner\, NTUC LearningHub\, for organising the event and providing the opportunity to collaborate. We look forward to strengthening this partnership. \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n  \n\n  \nWe are a Supporting Organisation at NTUC LearningHub’s AI x Cybersecurity Summit! \nCREST at AI x Cybersecurity Summit \nOur Asia Council Member\, John Lloyd\, will represent CREST at two different sessions in the afternoon: \n\nRaising the Standard: The Value of CREST Certifications in Your Cybersecurity Career\, from 14:30 to 14:45.\n\nThis session highlights how CREST certifications set a global benchmark for technical excellence and professional standards in the cybersecurity industry. Attendees will learn how these certifications validate skills\, enhance career prospects\, and help organisations build trust in an evolving threat landscape.\n\n\nFireside Chat: “Defending Against AI-Powered Threats: Is Your Cybersecurity Strategy Ready?”\, from 16:00 to 17:00.\n\nAs AI becomes both a tool for attackers and defenders\, this topic explores the emerging threat landscape\, such as deepfake phishing\, automated recon and exploits\, and AI-driven malware. It can also dive into how defenders can use AI for SOC automation\, anomaly detection\, and faster incident response.\n\n\n\n\nAbout the event \nOrganisations are increasingly vulnerable as AI is reshaping the cyber threat landscape. During Exercise SG Ready 2025*\, nearly 1 in 3 employees opened a simulated phishing email\, revealing a critical gap in workforce cyber awareness. \nCybercriminals are leveraging AI to craft highly-convincing phishing emails that easily bypass traditional security filters. To strengthen organisational resilience\, workforce must upskill employees to mitigate AI-driven cyber threats and navigate the risks of adversarial AI. \nJoin NTUC LearningHub and gain the latest threat insights from industry leaders and discover how to safeguard your workforce against AI-generated cyber threats with practical resilience strategies. \nSee you there!
