Take steps to better secure yourself

The Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) has released a checklist to help Australians protect themselves from cyber criminals.

Lottery and grant scams, identity theft, investment scams, hacking, phishing, dating and romance scams, online abuse and sextortion are just some of the threats people face.
Our Easy Steps Guide shows how you can better protect yourself from these threats and secure your accounts and devices, and your digital identity.
By following this checklist, all users of technology – individuals and families, businesses and organisations – will make themselves less of a target.
To counter disinformation and election disruption, the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) is encouraging voters to carefully check the source of electoral communication they receive. The ACSC recommends that you follow AEC advice: stop and consider.
