Improving Ransomware Resiliency is Crucial in Australia
Ransomware continues to pose the biggest threat that organisations face against malware attacks, with data breaches becoming an imminent reality for businesses in any industry. According to industry research Australian organisations in particular fall victim to ransomware attacks at a much higher rate than the rest of the world.
- Australia has seen a 15% increase in ransomware cyberattacks in the last 12 months
- Estimates indicate that a business is attacked every 11 seconds
- It takes an average of 69 days to contain a breach
- Data breaches cost organisations an average of $3 million
- 73% of organisations feel they don’t have enough staff to protect themselves against current threats
When an attacker locks you out of your systems and holds your data ransom, your business is at the mercy of the attacker’s demands. The trouble with paying the ransom is that you incentivise further attacks on your network in the future.
Save your organisation from the debilitating repercussions of legal fines, reputational damage and financial costs of a ransomware attack in Australia, with InfoTrust’s award-winning and highly trusted cybersecurity technology and expert security services.

Changes to the upcoming ISO 27001 standard are due to be released shortly. This article describes major changes to the components of ISO 27001’s Annex Controls by analysing what new modules now exist in the ISO 27002:2022 standard.
DOES THIS APPLY TO ME?
These modules will quickly become standard components of risk questionnaires, and will become non-negotiable baseline security requirements when your business handles data, or provides services.
The cyber threat landscape is continually evolving as cybercriminals look for new vulnerabilities in organisation’s systems and processes. As we increasingly access applications, data, and tools from remote locations, these risks compound further. To mitigate the threat of risk or loss to critical assets, it’s vital to have a full set of security technologies along with the ability to monitor and track user behaviour within the organisation’s network. The Security Service Edge (SSE), a term coined by Gartner and a new concept in the cybersecurity landscape, aims to help do just that. SSE uses a collection of integrated, cloud-centric security capabilities to facilitate secure remote access to corporate resources.
ISO 27002:2022 was released on 15th February replacing the 2013 version.
This blog discusses what revisions were made in ISO 27002:2022 to reflect the improvements in technology and updates in information security practices within a diverse range of industries, businesses, and governments. We will also explain how the updated structure has been simplified for ease of use.
What has changed in ISO 27002:2022
After a challenging year of well-publicised critical infrastructure attacks, massive supply chain breaches and financially motivated incidents, business leaders and individuals alike are only too aware of the risks of cybercrime. The 15th annual Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) takes a deep dive into the data, analysing tens of thousands of security incidents and data breaches that took place in 2021. The aim is to educate businesses about the common action types used against enterprises and to better prepare them to bolster their defences. In this article, we’ll summarise the key findings from the report with a focus on what has happened in the Asia Pacific region.
Despite billions invested into perimeter and endpoint security since the global pandemic began, phishing and business email compromise (BEC) scams remain as primary attack vectors into our businesses. With huge losses during 2021 as a direct result of these scams, global adoption of Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) has never been more important.
With Australian organisations encouraged to urgently adopt an enhanced cybersecurity posture, organisations should ensure they have mitigation strategies in place against cyber-attacks and are prepared to identify and respond to cybersecurity incidents. Whilst no mitigation strategy can offer full security against all cyber threats, it is recommended to implement eight essential mitigation strategies from the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC).
