One necessary change has to be to try to get those old systems out of the national ICT network.\u00a0\u00a0Computing capacity should be\u00a0managed by specialists.\u00a0 This means a rapid transition to the cloud.<\/p>\n<h3>National cyber defence strategy.<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;The recent events are frightening because they show how exposed democratic nations are to not only criminals but potentially to an economic warfare attack.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We need to begin a conversation about making a fundamental shift in the national cyber defence strategy,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<h3>What can you do?<\/h3>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">First<\/span><\/strong>, ensure you have patched all your servers and workstations to ensure they are using the latest version of software. Once the malware has entered through an infected email, it spreads from computer to computer through Microsoft networking software.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft has released patches to close the vulnerability in various versions of its server software Windows operating system, guidance to who is affected, and advice as to immediate action you can take if the <a href=\"https:\/\/technet.microsoft.com\/en-us\/library\/security\/ms17-010.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Petya cyber attack<\/a> affects you. Some organisations install patches on a longer cycle \u2013 say, bimonthly \u2013 and might have missed patches released over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Your <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">second<\/span><\/strong> line of defence is to try to prevent the malware getting into your system in the first place.<br \/>\nThe malware enters through an infected email. Emails carrying the infection can be stopped at your Internet Gateway (for those who use a Gateway) by ensuring your email filtering and firewall software is up to date with all the latest signatures.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Thirdly<\/span><\/strong>, users should be extra vigilant in opening suspicious email, especially when they log on for the first time after the weekend.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Finally<\/span><\/strong>, ensure that you have effective and up to date back-ups. That way, if all else fails, you can recover your lost data.<\/p>\n<h3>Who can you call?<\/h3>\n<p>If you have been impacted by this malware, you should report it to the National Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT Australia).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:info@cert.gov.au\">info@cert.gov.au<\/a><br \/>\n+61 2 6141 2999<br \/>\nHotline: 1300 172 499<\/p>\n<p>or the Australian Cyber Security Centre<\/p>\n<p>1300 292 371<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.acsc.gov.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ACSC<\/a><\/p>\n<section class=\"author-info text-left\" style=\"min-height: 50px;\">\n<h4 align=\"center\">bet365 live casino games customers can contact 1800 789 999.<\/h4>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Petya cyber attack ransomware.
