Australian organisations have been in the news over the last 2 years for high profile Cyber Security breaches. Several Australian not-for-profit organisations have suffered significant cyber security breaches over this period, with up to 12% of Australian NFPs being impacted. Prominent attacks included St Vincent’s Health being targeted via apparently stolen login credentials and an attack which impacted Life Saving Victoria’s operations.
CrowdStrike achieved infamy over the last few days, as it went in one instant from being a company that supplies technologies and services to protect companies from cybersecurity threats to being directly responsible for a massive global tech outage that impacted major banks, hospitals, supermarkets, telcos, media companies and other large enterprises and forced airlines to ground flights.
