AusCERT is a non-profit organisation founded in 1993 that provides advice, education and solutions to cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities.

Their office is located on the University of Queensland campus.[1]

History

In the early 1990s, Australian university student Nahshon Even-Chai hacked into the NASA computer system in his spare time.[2] In response to this incident, three Australian universities (Queensland University of Technology, Griffith University, and the University of Queensland) formed AusCERT, which aimed to create a central source for information security and protection.[citation needed]

Services

AusCERT services include phishing take-downs, security bulletins, incident notifications, sensitive information alerts, early warning SMS, and malicious URL feeds.[3]

AusCERT is one of many computer emergency response teams (CERTs) and a member of FIRST, a worldwide network of computer security incident response and security teams.[4] They are also a charter member[5] of APCERT.[6][7][8]

AusCERT Annual Conference

AusCERT's conference for security professionals takes place every year.[9] The conference program includes tutorials, networking activities, keynote speakers, and the Australian Information Security Awards.[10]

In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, AusCERT hosted their first virtual conference. The conference MC was Adam Spencer, and featured speakers Julie Inman (eSafety Commission), Kana Shinoda (Code Blue), and Lukasz Gogolkiewicz (Seek).[11]

Additional Activities

The organisation currently supports and shares cybersecurity techniques openly with the following groups:

  • The Australian Access Federation,[12]
  • Cyber Security threat annual surveys with BDO,[13]
  • International Training with APNIC,[14]
  • Training and support with KrCERT,[15] and
  • Council of Australian University Directors of Information Technology (CAUDIT).[16]
