Critical Infrastructure Cyber Security
"Experts are the ones who think they know everything. Geniuses are the ones who know they don't" - Simon Sinek
Cyber-attacks are continually rising each year with the number of threat actors increasing and their capabilities expanding. The FY2022/23 Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) Annual Cyber Threat Report noted:
- Nearly 94,000 cybercrime reported - up 23%
- On average, a report every 6 minutes
- The Australian Cyber Security Hotline answered over 33,000 calls - up 32%
- On average, 90 calls a day - an increase from 69 calls per day
The top 3 cyber incidents reported by critical infrastructure were:
- compromised accounts or credentials;
- compromised assets, networks and infrastructure
- denial-of-service attacks
As a result of cyber security threats and incidents, and recommendations from independent review, the Department of Home Affairs is promoting an uplift of cybersecurity across critical infrastructure.
Cyber security can range anywhere from simple password management through to comprehensive cybersecurity solutions to assess, build and manage cybersecurity and incident responses to a myriad of potential threats
