Zoom event 9 September 2021. 18.00-19.00AEST, 10.00-11.00CET)


Featuring Prof. Steven Freeland, Edward Farrell and Dr Samuli Haataja on the cybersecurity threats and implications for global communications and space infrastructure.

We feature three expert panellists who will share their perspectives from the standpoint of technical threats, cyberlaw and international conventions governing the military and civilian use of space. 

We will consider 

  • the feasibility of attacking satellites and space-based infrastructure
  • what a “day without space” might look like
  • the crucial role space technology plays in critical infrastructure/national security/military activities
  • how the multifaceted and ubiquitous nature of space impacts upon governance structures and decision-making
  • the need to develop appropriate ‘whole of Government’ policies/strategies for space, also recognising its close intersection with cyber technology
  • does international law apply to the activities of nation-states in cyberspace? 
  • to what extent does international law prohibit malicious cyber activities against critical infrastructure?
  • what are the difficulties around attributing cyber attacks/malicious cyber activities to nation-states?
  • recent research around ‘autonomous cyber capabilities’ — what are these and what kinds of legal issues do they raise.

We held our third event down at our Jones Bay Wharf headquarters. Members enjoyed hot BBQ food, a stunning view of the Harbour Bridge, and of course our trademark networking and fellowship.

We heard from JC Vega as he recounted the highs and lows of cyber ops through the lens of his long military career and his current role advising IBM’s cyber range. A key takeout was: In times of crisis you need friends to call on. Networks like Cybersecurity Advisors Network provide trusted contacts who will be there for you when you need advice or an independent take on what you’re seeing.

As this snappy video shows, informality and joyful fellowship have become a hallmark of Cybersecurity Advisors Network’s way of linking our substantive cyber agenda with the best of the best in the industry. Somehow, doing it over a BBQ by the water makes it just so much more fun.
