Commonwealth Bank welcomes the Australian Government’s cyber security strategy as an important step in creating a strong, secure and resilient modern economy.

“Technology is rapidly transforming economies around the world, creating new opportunities for growth and prosperity,” said Ben Heyes, Chief Information Security and Trust Officer at the Commonwealth Bank.

“With sustained focus on cyber security from government and industry, we can ensure Australians are confident and proficient users of digital services.”

Commonwealth Bank views cyber security is an important national issue and a shared responsibility.

“All of us – whether we’re in the private sector, working for the government or more broadly in the community – have a role to play to ensure the security of today’s modern economy,” Mr Heyes said. “We are committed to contributing to a strong, secure and growing digital economy.”
