Synopsis
Water is essential to sustain life. Our adversaries know this and have proven that they're willing to compromise Australian Water Management systems - and sacrifice Australian lives - in order to achieve their agenda. Australia's many global military alliances raises our risk profile in this regard.
With technology systems more globally inter-connected than ever before, these are very attractive, high-value targets for attackers. Modern day wars are occurring in cyber-space ongoingly - and happening in tandem to those on the physical battle-fields.
Malicious actors (particularly Nation-State attackers) have proved to be well resourced, highly motivated and unnervingly patient in their campaigns. As such, Australian Critical Infrastructure organisations need to establish robust Cyber Incident Response Management practices to counter these sophisticated attacks.
The objective of this presentation is to help organisations establish robust, well-tuned and practiced Cyber Incident Response Management practices to effectively recover from anomalous events - and reiterating why this is critical.
As expected, Cyber Incident Response Management extends beyond technical skills and approaches - it doesn't stop at Cyber Incident Response Plans and Playbooks either.
As cyber-attacks increase and evolve, understanding the psychological drivers of the malicious actors behind the attacks as well as the consequential impacts to our Cyber Incident Responders, organisation and wider citizens are key to building higher resiliency and stronger Cyber Incident Response strategies.
