Cyber Security Connect supports Momentum’s existing platforms Defence Connect and Space Connect, plus the wider Momentum network of brands (www.momentummedia.com.au), to promote the advancement of cyber security and help Australia leverage digital technology for a better tomorrow.
A capable and competitive Australian cyber security sector will underpin those industries and infrastructure critical to our economic prosperity as well as bolstering national security, resilience and the values of Australian society.
Australia’s Cyber Security Strategy 2020 details the opportunities for advancing Australia’s digital future and threats, including manipulation by state-based or state-sponsored actors as well as cyber criminals.
In 2017 alone, $2.3 billion was stolen from consumers by cyber criminals. The estimated impact of identity crime in Australia is $2.1 billion per year.
Malicious actions from state-backed cyber actors are also expected to spike, with intent to compromise government and business networks to obtain economic, defence, legal, policy, intellectual property and security information for their advantage.
Cyber security is central in the transition to a digital society. Cyber Security Connect delivers information, intelligence and education to the cross section of Australian businesses and institutions supporting this national agenda.
As well as big business and government, this also includes the small to medium businesses that employ over 70 per cent of all Australians and contribute 56 per cent of total value added to Australian GDP.
Cyber Security Connect channels news and analysis to support this agenda daily, plus shares the insights, opinions and commentary from leading experts focusing on the crucial elements of a sound cyber strategy: people, processes and technology.
