In cybersecurity it\u2019s easy to fall into the trap of just examining each threat as it\u2019s discovered, with analysts poring over code and functionality while barely a passing glance is spared toward the bigger picture.

There are a multitude of cogs spinning outside the intimate world of the analyst and the code, cogs that can have an enormous impact on the way our industry functions and the way organizations of all sizes are impacted.

With that mind, we\u2019ve developed a short quiz to help test everyone\u2019s general industry knowledge.

We\u2019ll be doing this around the globe, but this first quiz will focus on Australia\u2019s cyber industry, with all answers taken from the Australian Government\u2019s first annual update<\/a> to its cyber security strategy. 

Comment below and let us know how you fared.  Let the quiz begin!
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. In which city was the Government\u2019s first Joint Cyber Security Centre opened?
    1. Melbourne<\/li>

            1. A wage increase of 2.0 per cent<\/li>

              Answers:<\/strong>
              <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              1. The answer is B \u2013 Brisbane. This the first stage of a $47 million program piloting collaborative work spaces in which government, law enforcement and the private sector can work together and share threat information.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              2. The answer is C \u2013 $3.45 million. This funding will go towards establishing Academic Centres of Cyber Security Excellence. The aim of these centres is to help produce local analysts who can hit the ground running immediately upon graduating.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              3. The answer is C \u2013 59 per cent (more than twice the rate of 2015). This figure is included in the government update, though it originally came from Telstra\u2019s 2017 Cyber Security Report.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              4. The answer is B \u2013 94 per cent. With so many people online, all it takes is one breach to unleash a flash flood (remember wannacrypt?).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              5. The answer is D \u2013 I hope we all knew the answer to this one. Further investment in cyber security doesn\u2019t just increase the quality of our defences, but also provides a number of economic benefits. These figures are quoted in the report, though originally came from Deloitte.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
