Malware and malicious insiders account for most government cybercrime costs

They have also resulted in a large growth in cybersecurity expenditure across the Australian government and other organisations.While this trend is not unique to this nation and cyber-based acts on government agencies across the globe are on the rise, Australia’s reliance on technology for the provision of government services means the effects of cybercrime on citizens have the potential to be incredibly far reaching.A recent study by Accenture and the Ponemon Institute found that cybercrime is increasing in numbers and in scope. The study, which surveyed 2647 security and IT executives across 355 global organisations, found that then average number of security breaches per government agency was 190 in 2018, well ahead of the 14 experienced, on average, by private sector companies.The study also found that for public sector organisations, the average cost of security breach rose 17 per cent in 2018 to an average of US$10.28 million per incident, up from US$9.38 million in 2017.

School's out as ransomware attack downs IT systems at Scotland's Dundee and Angus College

A further education college in east Scotland has been struck by what its principal described as a cyber "bomb" in an apparent ransomware attack so bad that students have been told to stay away and reset passwords en masse. Dundee and Angus College told students not to turn up after the ransomware seemingly downed the entire institution's IT systems. This includes classes for college students, school pupils, evening classes and also means student interviews will not take place. However, all students are required to reset their passwords before they can access College systems such as MyLearning. Dundee and Angus College has about 5,000 registered students. A student affected by the attack told The Register: "We cannot access any college systems... the intranet that contains learning resources for all course materials has been offline for some since Thursday."
