The rise in cyber attacks among government agencies and contractors calls for a need to prevent the compromise of sensitive data or stolen personally identifiable information (PII) data. The growing sophistication in attacks make it more and more difficult to safeguard the federal government’s assets and its critical cyber infrastructure.

The Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) of the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) has published a framework to help agencies understand risk mitigation strategies. Known as the Essential Eight, the document provides guidance on how to boost the security posture and respond to cybersecurity incidents.
