When it comes to cyber threats in Australia… Alastair MacGibbon is the guy in the know. Australia's foremost cybersecurity expert, he was the former National Cyber Security Adviser and Special Adviser to the Prime Minister on Cyber Security, served as the Australian Government’s inaugural eSafety Commissioner, and now runs the world-leading cybersecurity company, Cyber CX.

In this chat, we tackle the big themes of cyber warfare, online criminal behaviour, and how exposed we are. Plus, he talks about democracy, the courts, and the free press and how they're the most critical piece of critical infrastructure we have.
