Synopsis

Recent cyber attacks on critical infrastructure highlight that despite two decades of efforts by governments and industry, securing these high-value assets remains a formidable challenge. With potentially far-reaching and dire consequences on the line, we look to policymakers and regulators for answers. The question is, how do we bring resilience to critical infrastructure?

Join researcher and cyber leader Lauren Veenstra as she delves into what constitutes effective policy, the contentious issue of who's responsible, and how Australia's strategic position rates. Attendees will gain insights into the complexities of policy and cybersecurity, learning how these elements interplay to shape resilience. Whether you're a policymaker, industry leader, or security professional, this session promises critical knowledge for navigating a field where the stakes have never been higher.
