    • Understanding the new changes to legislation.

    • New legislation, COVID disruption and escalating cybersecurity threats have highlighted how vital critical infrastructure is to how we live, work and play.

      The Security Legislation Amendment (Critical Infrastructure) Act 2021 (‘the SLACI Act’) and proposed Security Legislation Amendment (Critical Infrastructure Protection) Act 2022 (‘the SLACIP Act’) are being put in place to expand the definitions of critical infrastructure to encompass 11 industry sectors. The amendments also create a national register of assets, outline new federal powers and introduces new ‘positive security’ obligations.
