For two days in mid-November 2022, NUS School of Computing COM3 was transformed into a command centre for the inaugural Critical Infrastructure Defence Exercise (CIDeX), Singapore's largest-scale cyber defence exercise. CIDeX was organised by the Digital and Intelligence Service (DIS) and supported by the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA), iTrust2/SUTD, and the National Cybersecurity R&D Laboratory (NCL). This cyber defence exercise saw the Blue team (members of various national agencies) defending against the Red team (DIS and CSA personnel) in different potential scenarios. These included simulated attacks on critical country infrastructure, such as the poisoning of a water treatment plant and major water and power supply disruptions. The event was a success and helped participants sharpen their technical competencies and improve their cyber-attack defence readiness. ➡️ Read more: shorturl.at/abhAK #CIDEX #mindefsg #cybersecurity #cyberwarfare #cyberdefence #NUS #schoolofcomputing #nussoc

Women 👩‍🔬 have always had a pivotal role in the world of computing. For example, before the invention of calculators, many women acted as literal "human computers" 💻 and were tasked with performing complex calculations 🧮. To commemorate the collaboration between the NUS School of Computing and NUS Libraries, we're looking at women's often overlooked roles in computing. 👉 Read more about it here: http://ow.ly/qKub50LEkbt #NUSHeritage #NUSLibraries #Schoolofcomputing #NUS #girlpower #women #womenincomputing

💥 Kickoff! The 2022 FIFA World Cup starts in Qatar this week, and football fever takes centre stage ⚽️💨. On a tech-based note, did you know that artificial intelligence (AI) 🤖 is also making its way into the world of football? That’s right, SAOT or semi-automated offside technology will be used alongside VAR to help referees make more accurate decisions. It uses AI to trace ball and player movements in real time and sends automated alerts to video match officials when an offside is detected. Can SAOT help referees make better decisions? Will it force teams to rethink their strategies? Who do you think will take the trophy 🏆 home this time? And can AI help predict the 2022 World Cup winners? 👉 Let us know in the comments below! #WorldCup2022 #goal #kickoff #schoolofcomputing #NUS #VAR #SAOT

What is the difference between User Interface (UI) 🦾 and User Experience (UX) 😌? UI refers to the method by which one interacts with a device 🖥, application 📱 or website 💻. On the other hand, UX describes the sensations, emotions, and feelings one gets when interacting with a device 🖥, application 📱 or website 💻. Learning to recognise and leverage these concepts is a vital aspect of computer programming and tech design. ➡️ Check out some examples of great UX designs produced by #nuscomputing students here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1D17LfRfEnNmfwmJqpyBvHUzTbbQbz0iR_28auz52ZS4/edit#slide=id.g1872a8b0ea9_0_0 #NUSSoC #NUSExcellence #NUSComputing #tech #ICT #Innovation #UX #UI #Programming #CS3240
