The Australian government on Monday said it planned to overhaul its cybersecurity rules and set up an agency to oversee government investment in the field and help co-ordinate responses to hacker attacks.
Current cybersecurity rules, government policies and regulations “are simply not at the level that we need them to be,” Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said during a meeting with industry leaders and experts. The government will set up a co-ordinator for cybersecurity, supported by a national office within the department of home affairs, tasked with ensuring government agencies work together during cyber incidents.
The government has published a discussion paper on a new cybersecurity strategy, which it aims to implement next year, and is seeking feedback on how businesses can improve their cybersecurity in partnership with the government.
