Whitehat Society

The Whitehat Society is an Singapore Management University (SMU) School of Computing & Information Systems (SCIS) Special Interest Group (SIG) founded by a group of students who are passionate about cyber security! We want to promote awareness of the importance of information security throughout the whole campus. Information is the lifeblood of organizations, a vital business asset in todays IT-enabled world. IT systems and networks link every internal department and connects them with a myriad of suppliers, partners and markets. Knowing the importance of security opens up countless opportunities for SMU students as we venture into the corporate world armed with skills our employees never dream of. No one wants security! They want the benefits of security. A homeowner does not want the finest deadbolt on the front door because of the excellence in its engineering; they want a comfortable, happy place to live
