Tremors felt in Singapore
Tremors were felt in Singapore on Thursday at about 8am, the second time in 24 hours. As many as two aftershocks have rattled the Indonesian island of Sumatra this morning, measuring 7.7 and 6.7 on the richter scale.
Some schools may postpone year-end exams, if tremors are felt on the day. If the students do feel the ground shake, the school has trained them on how to react, even if they are in the midst of sitting for their exams.
Police said engineers from the HDB and BCA have inspected all 337 of the HDB, private and commercial buildings affected. All the buildings inspected so far have been certified structurally safe

A made in SINGAPORE product!
FAST easySafe is the only hardware cryptography product available in the market with unique features. It combines the most popular hardware authentication and software encryption techniques in one single USB interface token.
Although the design is compliant to FIPS 140-2 standard with PKI technology, FAST easySafe, as its name implies, is rather easy to deploy and use as compared to other sophiscated security products that require dedicated IT specialists for deployment and maintenance.
FAST easySafe combines the 2 most critical security features, i.e. User Authentication and Data Protection in a single product.
User Authentication
FAST easySafe offers a strong authentication alternative that replaces Windows password login control. The user login is controlled by easySafe token which is a separate hardware from the computer and cannot be traced or recorded as compared to generic software password. The computer will be locked when the token is unplugged from it; this is easier to use than windows login and logoff systems.
Data Protection
It is very important in today's IT environment that sensitive and valuable data need protection. This is because many organizations nowadays give their staff workstations to increase efficiency. Confidential information which stored in these workstations is always at risk of being accessed by unauthorized parties if leave unattended.
FAST easySafe provides the protection to the users to store their confidential documents into an electronic vault by generating an encrypted "virtual" disk drive in the computer. Users can easily store their sensitive and valuable data in this electronic vault. They can create, save, move and copy files on it in exactly the same way as they have always done without noticing any difference between using the "virtual" disk drive and a "normal" one. FAST easySafe also is more secure as the security is controlled by a separate hardware instead of using the security software that is installed in the computer.
Benefits of FAST easySafe
- Protection against unauthorized access to computer
- Protects valuable and sensitive data on hard disk by generating an encrypted virtual disk drive
- No/minimal training effort required for users
- High level of user acceptance
- Fast and simple installation via Windows installer
- Easy to use as the same way the users always done in Windows applications
