AppSecure Secures CSA Licence to Deliver Penetration Testing Services in Singapore

AppSecure Security Ventures Pte. Ltd., a Singapore-based offensive security provider, has been officially licensed by the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) under the Cybersecurity Act 2018 to deliver regulated penetration testing services.

This milestone positions AppSecure among a select group of trusted providers and highlights its mission to help enterprises protect their most critical digital assets with government-recognised assurance.

Why Penetration Testing Matters More Than Ever

Cyberattacks are growing more sophisticated and targeted, threatening industries such as finance, healthcare, technology, and government. Traditional security controls alone are no longer sufficient. Organisations now require continuous, intelligence-driven security testing to stay ahead of adversaries.

Penetration testing sometimes referred to as ethical hacking provides:

• Visibility into vulnerabilities across applications, networks, and cloud environments
  
• Real-world attack simulations based on adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures
  
• Compliance assurance with MAS TRM, PDPA, ISO 27001, and other global standards
  
• Actionable remediation strategies that improve long-term resilience
  

By securing this CSA licence, AppSecure demonstrates its ability to deliver these services within Singapore’s stringent regulatory framework, offering clients confidence that every engagement meets the highest professional and ethical benchmarks. Backed by hacker-led penetration testing and real-world attack simulations, AppSecure helps organisations uncover hidden risks and build stronger security.
