The Briefing Cyber security: What do we have to fear?
Last month our Prime Minister, side by side with the Defence Minister gave us a very strong warning about cyberattacks. Along with that warning here in Australia, there’s been a concerning development in the UK after they accused a Russian hacking group of trying to steal COVID-19 research.
On todays episode we find out what harm these attacks could actually do., and what we really need to worry about. Our guest today is Alastair MacGibbon: Chief Strategy Officer, CyberCX and former National Cyber Security Advisor & Head of Australian Cyber Security Centre.
In today's news headlines:
- JobKeeper: payments reduced from October, extended to 2021
- NSW at a “critical point” as person in their 30s in ICU
- Major development in UK Covid-19 vaccine trial
In today's Briefing we ask: Why are cyberattacks a threat to us all? How do they really affect our lives? And what harm could these attacks actually do?
