Cyber Security Strategy
Australians have been quick to embrace the Inteet in their lives and businesses. For most of us it is
now part of our daily routine for talking to our friends and family, studying, shopping and paying bills.
Equally, business has adopted the Inteet and other information technology to improve efficiency,
improve the quality of service and gain access to new markets.
Unfortunately our use of the Inteet has also created new opportunities for criminals who seek to
access our personal and corporate secrets, steal our resources and intimidate Inteet dependent
businesses. The Prime Minister in his 2008 National Security Statement to Parliament acknowledged
that online threats now form one of our top tier national security priorities.
Organised crime is increasingly employing information and communication technologies to facilitate
their illegal activities, particularly in relation to money laundering and identity crime.
This Strategy shows how the Australian Govement is haessing the full range of resources to help
protect govement, business and individual Australians. It describes how new capabilities have been
created to help Australians, and the businesses they transact with, be better protected.
Importantly, this Strategy calls upon all Australian Inteet users to be vigilant and informed about
online threats and how their own actions can be the first line of defence.
