Following on from Australian Prime Minister, Scott Morrison’s announcement the morning of Friday 19th June. InfoTrust has provided advice to media outlets and the general public on what they, and Australian businesses, can be doing to protect themselves against cyber attacks. Although this is not new information to many organisations, who generally have a good understanding of the cyber threats they face. The key message from the announcement was that the increased frequency, and sophistication of these attacks from a state-sponsored actor against the Australian government and businesses is of concern. The advice from the Government is to ensure you remain vigilant and cautious of any digital communication and interaction online.
