Cybercrime costs the Australian economy billions of dollars each year. The increasing number of cyber-attacks have hit some of our nation’s biggest organisations including BlueScope Steel, Lion Dairy and Drinks, and Nine Entertainment as well as several major hospitals. These types of attacks can cripple an organisation financially and reputationally.
