Major Australian ports are almost back to full capacity following a large-scale cyber attack.
Parts of four key Australian ports were shut down over the weekend because of a cyberattack, leading to concerns about flow-on effects. DP World Australia, a company responsible for 40 per cent of freight into the country, found a breach of its systems on Friday and responded by switching off its internet connection completely. This meant the company's port operations in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Fremantle were shut down over the weekend.
"Most of the retailers have got their goods for Christmas already in their warehouses by now, there might be a small impact but not anything dramatic," van Duyn said. "I don't think we'll miss out on any toys for the kids as has been reported," he said. Cyber Security and Home Affairs Minister Clare O'Neil has said the attack on DP World Australia, should be a wake-up call for corporate Australia.
