Australia: We’ve Never Experienced a Cyberattack

The Australian Cyber Security Centre released its second-ever report on threats facing the country. It seeks to clarify what it believes constitutes a cyberattack and why the government believes it has never actually experienced one. Reaching a consensus on defining such terms as cyberwarfare, cyberweapons and cyberterrorism has proven difficult. A cybersecurity research center run by NATO in Estonia has published a manual with no fewer than 50 terms with the prefix “cyber” in an attempt to reach agreement. The report doesn’t get into the intent of the Bureau of Meteorology hackers, which according to the second half of the government’s definition would likely tip opinions in favor of labeling that incident cyberattack.”]
