Executive summary: Our 2030 Vision By 2030, Australia will be a world leader in cyber security. We envisage a future where stronger cyber defences enable our citizens and businesses to prosper, and to bounce back quickly following a cyber attack. To achieve our vision, we need to protect Australians. We will do this with six cyber shields. Each shield provides an additional layer of defence against cyber threats and places Australian citizens and businesses at its core. Throughout the period covered by the 2023–2030 Australian Cyber Security Strategy (the Strategy), the Australian Government will work with industry to reinforce these shields and build our national cyber resilience.
