My Department does not use the technology which was the subject of the recent incident in the NTMA.  Consequently, no actions specific to those technologies are required by my Department.

My Department takes cyber security very seriously.  It invests considerable resources in cyber security defence and regularly reviews and updates the defences and mitigations available.
