Reinforcement learning is a machine learning training method based on rewarding desired behaviours and/or rejecting undesired ones. Such as teaching a computer to play games; learning which tactics lead to victory and which do not.

Using this method, the digital agent learns through trial and error to behave in an environment by performing certain actions to achieve one or more objectives. The agent measures how close it is to reaching the objectives with each action and, with time, learns to adopt strategies using the actions that bring it closer to the goal. This learning method has been adopted in artificial intelligence (AI) as a way of directing machine learning through rewards and penalties.

Did you know that Scrum was first introduced in 1995 as a better way of implementing team collaboration for solving complex problems?

A framework for project management that emphasises teamwork, accountability, and iterative progress towards a well-defined goal, Scrum can also be thought of as a practical way to implement Agile.

Under the Scrum process, practitioners work with what they have and continually evaluate what is or is not working.

2FA, or Two Factor Authentication, is an identity and access management security method that requires two forms of identification to access resources and data.

Some examples of 2FA products include SMS one-time passwords, biometric verification, and authentication apps.

2FA is important as it adds an additional layer of security to the authentication process, making it harder for attackers to gain access to an individual’s devices or online accounts.

#Singpass goes beyond 2FA in some situations, requiring users to perform a face scan to verify their identity, e.g. when setting up the Singpass app.
