GUEST OPINION by Lani Refiti, ANZ Regional Director of cybersecurity firm Claroty: The Australian Government has recently announced a team comprising 100 of the best cybersecurity experts in Australia to track down the people responsible for recent attacks on Optus and Medibank, forming a new partnership with the Australian Federal Police and Signals Directorate.
The Federal Government has released its ransomware action plan, but cyber security experts Claroty and Varonis say it falls short and needs greater commitment from the government.
