Australia’s Hiring a 500-Strong Cyber Spy Army
The Australian government plans to recruit 500 new cyber spies to help fight foreign attacks in a billion-dollar funding announcement.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison confirmed $1.35 billion would be dedicated to hiring the new team for the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) and the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) over the next decade.
Australia Says It's the Target of a Massive State-Based Cyber Attack
Defence minister Linda Reynolds said it would work to put Australia’s spy agencies on the front foot when it comes to cyber attacks from foreign actors.
“This package will enable ASD and Australia’s major telecommunications providers to prevent malicious cyber activity from reaching millions of Australians by blocking known malicious websites and computer viruses at speed,” Reynolds said in the media release.
“This package is one part of our $15 billion investment in cyber and information warfare capabilities that will form part of Defence’s 2020 Force Structure Plan to address the rapidly evolving cyber threat landscape.”
Cyber spy army announced two weeks after “massive” foreign attack
It comes just shortly after Morrison announced a number of Australian sectors, including education and health, had been targeted by an ongoing “massive” state-based cyber attack in mid-June.
“We know it is a sophisticated state-based cyber actor because of the scale and nature of the targeting and the trade craft used,” Morrison said in the press conference on June 19. |
