As discussed in the October 3 Security and Resilience Update, the Australian National University (ANU) has released a report (available on the WaterISAC portal) providing valuable details and lessons on a data breach incident it experienced beginning in November 2018. The breach led to the theft of personal information, including names, addresses, dates of birth, bank account details, and more, for current and former staff and students, some of whom are potentially now in high-ranking roles around the world. Following up on this news, cybersecurity company Sentinel has published an article identifying seven lessons every chief information security officer (CISO) should learn from this incident. The recommendations include replacing legacy anti-virus applications, knowing your network, and enforcing two-factor authentication and multi-factor authentication, among others.
