Answered by Michael Shanks
National Security is a key priority for the government. The Department is working with the National Protective Security Authority, the energy industry, regulators, and other stakeholders to continually improve and maintain the security and resilience of energy infrastructure. This work focusses on reducing the vulnerability of networks and assets and ensuring an effective response to incidents - considering a range of threats and future system changes.
