Implications of the proposed Cyber Incident Review Board [2024]

29 May 2024

Society anticipates heightened accountability from cybersecurity professionals.

Matt O’Kane contributed a piece to the current edition of the NSW Bar Association’s Journal addressing evolving societal demands on cyber specialists.

Key Points

The article states: “Organisations increasingly seek rigorous protocols for defending against and responding to cybersecurity compromises. Two drivers fuel this shift: high-profile attacks on respected organisations that have raised public expectations around prevention and response, plus emerging governmental programs like a Cyber Incident Review Board designed to examine significant breaches and broader vulnerability patterns.”
