In true Christmas spirit, we decided to deliver what many have been asking for….in this episode we cross examine Lieutenant General Michelle McGuinness, Australia’s National Cyber Security Coordinator.

As the Coordinator, she leads national cyber security policy, the coordination of responses to major cyber incidents, whole of government cyber incident preparedness efforts, and the strengthening of Commonwealth cyber security capability.

If you experience a major cyber incident, you will invariably meet Michelle.

She has served in the Australian Defence Force for 30 years and has a deep passion for learning and educating. This comes through in spades throughout the podcast.

I am also joined by Magda Blanch-de Wilt, our cyber risk advisory lead. Together we tackle a broad set of issues without interruption. This is a single episode…your bumper Christmas special.

I hope you enjoy the discussion. Cross examining Lieutenant General Michelle McGuinness. Thanks for listening. Here we go….
