Macquarie Technology Group (MTG) marks the 2023-2030 Australian Cyber Security Strategy as an \u2018unprecedented opportunity\u2019 to improve collaboration between industry, government and intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aidan Tudehope, MTG Co-founder and Macquarie Government Managing Director said: \u201c(This) strategy establishes cyber security as a unifying nationwide endeavour, led by the Federal Government as the exemplar, but delivered in synchronicity with all tiers of government, the private sector and the wider economy. This is a nationwide pursuit which requires a nationwide approach to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tudehope specifically welcomed the major uplift in Australian organisations\u2019 cyber security posture, particularly among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), announced by the Government in the cyber health-check program and Small Business Cyber Resilience Service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSMEs are currently exempt from Australian privacy laws and many data protection, deletion and governance requirements. But they make up about 95 per cent of all organisations in Australia – many are part of Government and critical infrastructure supply chains, sharing data and digitally interacting with entities crucial to the nation\u2019s economy and national resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOrganisations with an immature understanding of cyber and privacy measures could be inadvertently creating risk for other, potentially more critical organisations, and we strongly welcome the Government\u2019s targeted support to help SMEs achieve new levels of cyber security and sophistication.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTo become the world\u2019s most secure nation by 2030 \u2013 and to build beyond that as cyber threats aren\u2019t static \u2013 the Strategy rightly focuses on uplifting everyone,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
