Albanese government 'not taking AI cyber threats seriously', industry warns

Cybersecurity experts are criticizing the Albanese government for not adequately addressing AI cyber threats in the federal budget. They argue that the budget lacks sufficient measures to defend Australians against AI-fueled attacks, leaving small and medium-sized businesses particularly vulnerable. The industry warns that state-sponsored actors and criminal gangs are leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance the speed and scale of cyber attacks.

Despite the increasing sophistication of AI-driven cyber threats, the government's response has been deemed insufficient by experts. The criticism comes as concerns grow over the potential impact of AI on national security and critical infrastructure. The lack of emphasis on cybersecurity in the budget has raised alarms within the industry and highlighted the need for stronger measures to combat evolving cyber threats.
