PSN Government Cyber Security Showcase Western Australia
Western Australia’s cyber security landscape is defined by scale, critical infrastructure exposure and a uniquely centralised operating model. As the state progresses toward Government 3.0—a more connected, data-driven and citizen-centred model of public service—cyber resilience is becoming a core operational priority. The WA Government is strengthening its Cyber Security Unit and whole-of-government Security Operations Centre (SOC), shifting the focus from uplift to operational excellence, ensuring agencies can detect, respond and recover at speed across a vast and highly interconnected state.
The WA Government Cyber Security Showcase will bring together senior leaders to explore how the state is embedding its cyber security policy into real-world operations, strengthening visibility across agencies and aligning cyber, privacy and data sharing into a unified trust framework. Discussions will focus on SOC maturity, threat hunting, critical infrastructure protection and how WA is building a cyber capability that reflects both its geographic challenges and strategic importance to the national economy.
This year’s Showcase is designed to help delegates:
- Understand how WA’s central SOC model is evolving from monitoring to proactive threat detection and coordinated response
- Explore how agencies are implementing WA’s cyber security policy in operational environments
- Learn how privacy, data sharing and cyber leaders are aligning to build trust and unlock value from data
- Examine how WA is securing critical infrastructure across mining, energy and regional services
