Hello, I’m Emily Grant. I’m the Assistant Secretary of the Critical Infrastructure Security branch here at the Department of Home Affairs.

This November, we will host Australia’s second Critical Infrastructure Security Month, commonly known as CISM. I would like to announce that as part of CISM we will launch season two of the Critical Conversations Podcast.

Following the success of season one in 2023, Critical Conversations is back with a fantastic line up of guests.

Get ready to have some Critical Conversations as we delve into all things cyber and infrastructure security with a range of expert guests.

Tune in, turn the volume up and hit subscribe, because episode one of Critical Conversations season two will be available on all good platforms from next week.

In episode one we will be joined by Dawn Cappelli. Dawn is the the Director of Operational Technology - Cyber Emergency Readiness at Dragos. Dawn will share her expertise on the ever-changing OT cyber threat landscape to ensure the protection of our critical infrastructure into the future.

It’s the perfect time to listen to this episode as we raise awareness of the importance of uplifting the security and resilience of Australia’s critical infrastructure.
