🔐 Protect your digital assets from external eavesdropping and influence 🔐
3️⃣ Key Takeaways:
📝 Albeit seemingly harmless, objects such as an antenna, a radio device and a laptop can be assembled into tools for eavesdropping, and a malicious actor could use them to view what a victim is doing on his/her computer screen.
💻 In essence, electronic devices emit electromagnetic (EM) radiation when they process information and this could compromise privacy and security as the devices are broadcasting their activities to the world.
💻 There are three possible countermeasures against these attacks: shielding, filtering and masking. Each individual or organisation will need to determine which of the three is most appropriate for them.

At a visit to Cerebral Palsy Alliance Singapore in 2018, a team from GovTech was introduced to Ms Elaine Eng, a 19-year-old painter born with cerebral palsy.
Inspired by Elaine’s love for painting, the team built the eCanvas, a device that dispenses paint or moves the canvas by responding to voice commands of the painter.
The eCanvas project illustrates how technology can be used to improve and add value to the lives of individuals, making sure that no one gets left behind.
