CISC held the inaugural Cyber and Infrastructure Security Conference – bringing together more than 500 industry participants at Sydney’s International Convention Centre, and more than 1000 participants via a live stream.
Owners and operators from every state and territory were in attendance, with all critical infrastructure sectors represented, alongside some of our international partners.
The event was a fantastic opportunity to build a community of best practice for critical infrastructure protection in Australia.
The Secretary of the Department of Home Affairs, Mr Michael Pezzullo AO, opened the inaugural event.
Conference attendees were able to listen to several leading experts and industry professionals, including:
- Kelly Bayer Rosmarin, the CEO of Optus
- Brianna Casey, the CEO of Foodbank
- Mike Gallacher, the CEO of Ports Australia.
Associate Professor Steve Curnin from the University of Tasmania gave a presentation on the organisational health check tool.
The Cyber Security Response Coordination Unit Exercise Program team partnered with Dragos to give participants experience in thinking through the implications of a ransomware attack. The Cyber and Infrastructure Security Conference March 2023 Exercise Insights report provides some key insights around how participants expected relevant stakeholders to operate in response to the cyber security incident.
All of the presentations are available to view below.
