Investment in cyber security needed to safeguard Australia’s passion for the internet

by Hills Limited Manufacturer and Distributor Aussies love the internet. More than ever before, Australians are embracing the internet for business and personal use: • In June 2016, 94% of adult Australians used the Internet to conduct banking, pay bills, or buy and/or sell goods and services; • In the second half of 2016, the volume of data downloaded through broadband connections was 23% greater than the first half of 2016, continuing a long-term trend of growing internet usage. A strong and vibrant online economy is key to Australia’s future prosperity. For Australia to be globally competitive, cyber security must underpin our data-driven economy. • In 2016, 59% of organisations in Australia detected a business interrupting security breach on at least a monthly basis, which is more than twice as often as 2015, according to the ‘Telstra Cyber Security Report 2017’. To meet public expectations for improved privacy, integrity and availability of online services, and to support digital innovation and the online economy, government and enterprise must invest in cyber security. Business needs to anticipate future cyber security challenges, and be prepared to respond. At Hills, we understand business data and the technologies that manage, store and move that information for you and your clients. And we’re aware of the threats to your data and business systems, that can cost thousands, even millions, of dollars.
