With so many issues facing us – personally, professionally & from an organisational perspective, this forum will help you to navigate through these challenges & identify opportunities for development.
I am also really looking forward to hearing from participants about the challenges you currently face and exploring how your work is contributing to effecting positive change in our communities.
Never before has the security of the tangible world and the virtual worlds so intersected creating a complex and interdependent operating environment.
The PSG brings together world class experts who will talk about their experiences in dealing with uncertainty and volatility, and offering practical real world solutions.
I’m really proud to be an Ambassador of the 2021 PSG Conference. There has never been a more important time to participate.
The PSG Conference provides a great opportunity to broaden our network and to work together to achieve positive sustainable change through strategic risk management.
We acknowledge the Traditional Owners and Custodians of Country throughout Australia and their continuing connections to land, sea and communities. We pay our respects to them, their cultures and their Elders; past, present, emerging and those leading the way into the future. We also recognise Australia’s First Peoples’ enduring contribution to Australia’s national security.
We truly believe that Diversity powers our strength – with people looking at the same problem from different perspectives, a better solution can be achieved.

National Security Memorandum on Improving Cybersecurity for Critical Infrastructure Control Systems By JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., JULY 30, 2021 |…
In a decade, ransomware software has grown from a tool by hackers to extort individuals for hundreds of dollars, to an underworld service-for-hire among criminals to shakedown entire industries for hundreds of millions. Cryptocurrency, meanwhile, has proven an ideal means of paying ransom to shadowy gangs across borders.
Quite often, companies are publicly embarrassed, face legal scrutiny and reputational damages when one of their third parties engages in unethical or criminal behavior. In April this year, five subsidiaries of Dutch conglomerate SHV settled for 41.6 million Euro to avoid further prosecution by the Dutch justice department.
