It brings us immense pleasure to congratulate the graduates of the 4th Cohort of the Cyber Skills Enrichment Program*: Alissa Borg, Belinda L, Kate B., Margeaux P and William Duncan. Graduating from this program is no small feat. It entails substantial commitment, coursework, micro-credentialing and project work designed to equip candidates with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in the cyber security industry. Throughout the intensive 12-week program, these graduates undertook comprehensive hands-on training, gaining real-world experience and exposure in areas such as governance, risk and compliance, managed detection and response, security engineering, vulnerability management, customer engagement and much more. They sharpened their technical skills and business acumen and honed their critical thinking abilities. Their commitment and dedication to refining their skills and facing complex challenges head-on is a true testament to their future success in the field, and we commend each of them. It's not just about what they've achieved; it's about the potential they've unlocked in themselves. Each graduate now has the opportunity to make significant contributions to the cyber security industry. We look forward to witnessing the remarkable impact these graduates will undoubtedly make in their careers. Once again, congratulations and best wishes on your upcoming endeavours in this vibrant and dynamic field.

AUSCERT, in a conversation with cyberdaily.au, has predicted that Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) will be a critical focus for Australian businesses in 2025.   To enhance security, more organisations will seek cyber security tabletop training exercises and maturity assessments. As threats grow more complex and regulatory requirements become more stringent, these services will become increasingly essential.   To identify potential security risks within your business, utilise our cyber security self-assessment tool at https://lnkd.in/g_NNACjZ.   By pinpointing potential vulnerabilities, you can take proactive measures to safeguard your business and mitigate personal liability and potential legal repercussions.   #cybersecurity #cyber #cybertraining #cybersecuritytraining #cyberassessment #ITsecurity #itprotection #cybertraining #cyberawareness #directors #businessowners #governance #businessowers #CEO #CFO #ITManager #boardofdirectors #businessissues

We recently posted a video on our LinkedIn page explaining how to protect your business from business email compromise (BEC). An article published by cyberdaily.au last Friday underscores the damage and significant costs associated with BEC scams with a hospital in Sydney recently falling victim to such a scam, losing AUD $2 million. https://lnkd.in/gMJStvvJ The latest Australian Signals Directorate report on cyber threats also indicates that business email compromise is the most frequently reported cybercrime among businesses in Australia, regardless of their size. Watch our short video to learn the practical steps you can take to safeguard your business against business email compromise. https://lnkd.in/gcrD3Bnu #BEC #Cybercrime #cyberthreats #businessemailcompromise #scams #cyber #cybersecurity #cyberaware #dataprotection #ITSecurity #emailsecurity
