The Victorian government has launched a new five-year cybersecurity strategy to build resiliency against cyber threats and ensure government information, services, and infrastructure are protected and personnel are ready should the situation arise. Under the Cyber Security Strategy released on Friday, the state government is aiming to protect sensitive citizen and other data against loss, malicious alteration, and unauthorised use, in the first instance. The strategy [PDF] explains the state also wants government services, systems, and infrastructure to be capable of bouncing back during and following “serious cyber incidents”.
