For those who need more than the basics, join ASD’s ACSC as we take action to protect networks and digital infrastructure now and into the future.
We will be addressing a a new topic each week to support you and your organisation to take action and build a robust cyber security posture and culture.
Our weekly themes are:
- Event logging: You cannot defend what you cannot see. Take action and ensure you have best practice logging in place.
- Legacy technology: Legacy technology is outdated hardware and software that can leave your network or system vulnerable to malicious actors. Take action now to replace legacy technology or put in appropriate mitigations.
- Supply chain and third party risks: The cyber security risks of your suppliers and third parties are also your risks. Choose products and services that are secure by design.
- Quantum readiness: Quantum is coming. Take action now to adopt post quantum cryptography to safeguard your digital infrastructure now and into the future.
