THE CYBER ASSEMBLY
Our mantra: connect people to cyber skills.
Our vision is to create a platform where people are recognised and rewarded for their skills and not have their potential limited by the bias of gender, age, disabilities and qualifications. We are a Singapore-based community edu-tech initiative.
THE TEAM
NG PAN YONG
Founder
My 20 year journey in technology includes: writing COBOL, full stack programming, two telco startups, stints with Fortune Global 500 MNCs, M&A consulting, architecting an enterprise web services framework; authoring a national-level API for order and service management; designing and delivering my dream CRM and billing system, heading IT teams, heading up IT security, delivering Cyber security services, helping to build a national scale MPLS network, designing a 100G FPGA appliance, engineering a cyber threat detection and big data analytics system... the list goes on.
I was deceived by CORBA and EJB 1.1; I thought WAP and iMode was going to change the world; I had my fair share of failings and learnt from google and my experiences. I am also a proud alumnus of Nanyang Technological University.
