GUEST OPINION: Australian organisations have been quick on the uptake of new technologies, including digital transformation, cloud computing, and the hot-topic generative AI. However, with this uptake, organisations are finding themselves exposed to new risks. The 388% increase in data breaches in 2024 demonstrates this, as cyber attackers begin to capitalise on these vulnerabilities.
