Improving cyber security in the tertiary sector

How we're working to improve cyber security in the tertiary sector, and links to free resources for providers

Cyber security attacks are increasing in New Zealand. They’re a major concern for all organisations and individuals.

Education providers and organisations hold a lot of personal information, making them an attractive target for cyber criminals.

We're working with the Tertiary Education Commission on the Cyber Security for the Tertiary Sector project. The project aims to improve cyber security awareness and maturity in Aotearoa's tertiary sector.
