Australian public and private organizations are being urged by the Australian Government to safeguard their networks as the country appears to be under a large scale cyber-attack.

Australian security agencies are working to thwart the attacks and are providing advice to those under attack.

• This is a “malicious” attack on government and private sector computer networks.
  
• No large-scale data breaches have been detected.
  
• A “state-based actor with significant capabilities” is behind the attack.
  
• Experts say the states most capable of these types of attacks are Russia and China.
