My Department implements a security-by-design and defence-in-depth approach to cyber security and has 24/7 cyber defence systems in place that react to any threat to its systems in the event of a cyber incident or security breach. My Department also works closely with the National Cyber Security Centre and the Office of the Government CIO to ensure that best practice principles are followed with regard to ICT security.
