About us
Allies in Cyber Security. We’re your trustworthy and steadfast ally in the battle against digital risks. Our team are digital warriors, committed to safeguarding our members and the broader community from cyber threats. Our secret weapon is our people, and the culture we have fostered for over 30 years ensures the very best protection for the community. Joining as a member means you gain access to more than a service provider, but instead, a partner to stand shoulder-to-shoulder against cyber threats and digital warfare. We understand that organisations have different needs and are all traversing various stages of their cyber security journey. Whether you're just starting your cyber adventure or you're a seasoned digital explorer, we offer a holistic approach aimed at strengthening your security strategy. We believe, being forewarned is forearmed, and pride ourselves on being forward-thinking in the way we prepare our members for the evolving landscape of cyber threats. As an active member of the Forum for Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST) and Asia Pacific Computer Emergency Response Team (APCERT), we have access to accurate, timely and reliable information about emerging computer network threats and vulnerabilities on a regional and global basis. And as a not-for-profit security group based at The University of Queensland Australia, we deliver 24/7 service to members and help them prevent, detect, respond and mitigate cyber-based attacks. Our existence is deeply intertwined with the pursuit of the greater good. Together, we’ll navigate the intricate cyber security realm and emerge stronger, fortified, and ready to face whatever challenges lie ahead. After all, we’re stronger together.

Week in Review for 20 December 2024 Greetings, As the year draws to a close, we take pride in reflecting on the remarkable achievements of AUSCERT in 2024. This year has been defined by innovation, growth, and collaboration, marked by significant milestones that have further enhanced the value we deliver to our members. AUSCERT has strengthened its reputation as a trusted ally in cyber security by introducing transformative initiatives, enhancing existing services, and fostering deeper connections within the global cyber security community. These accomplishments demonstrate our unwavering commitment to equipping our members with the tools, knowledge, and support they need to confidently navigate the ever-evolving cyber security landscape. One of the standout moments of the year was the successful delivery of AUSCERT2024, which welcomed over 900 delegates—a record-breaking achievement! The conference featured ground-breaking workshops, insightful presentations, and key initiatives designed to strengthen and advance the cyber security industry. For those who missed conference presentations or wish to revisit them, recordings are available on our YouTube Channel. This year, we celebrated a major milestone with the launch of our rebrand—a refreshed identity that proudly reflects our new position as an “Ally in Cyber Security.” As part of this transformation, we unveiled an updated member portal featuring enhanced functionality designed to provide a more seamless and improved experience for our members. Our commitment to continuous improvement and service excellence remains unwavering. We invite our members to share their thoughts and ideas for future enhancements. Your feedback is invaluable—please submit your suggestions through the feedback feature in the member portal. Together, we can shape the future of our services to better meet your needs. Additionally, we expanded our offerings to include Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) services. These encompass maturity assessments and tabletop exercises tailored to help our members navigate the complexities of GRC while aligning cyber security practices with their business objectives. Our proactive approach identifies and provides advice to address cyber security gaps, mitigate risks, and enhance organisational resilience. Through close collaboration, we aim to elevate security and compliance standards across your organisation. Looking ahead to 2025, we are excited to build on this momentum and continue delivering exceptional value to our members. Together, we will achieve even greater success in the coming year. #cybersecurity #thisweek #cyber
