2016 Perspectives on cyber risk

Our survey results reflect that cyber attacks are occurring on a regular basis, across all organisations types, and in almost every industry; that cyber security is front of mind for many Australian organisations; and that for many (though not all) organisations, cyber resilience is considered a whole-of-enterprise challenge.

Our survey also found that many organisations perceive they have a satisfactory understanding of, and a satisfactory capability to prevent and deal with, cyber attacks. Unfortunately, this perception is not always reflected in the practical measures that organisations are adopting to mitigate cyber risk and increase their cyber resilience.
