Cybersecurity hiring in Australia
Australia's cybersecurity market is concentrated in Sydney, Melbourne, and Canberra (government and defense), with Brisbane and Perth growing. The major banks and the public sector dominate demand, sharply amplified after the 2022 Optus and Medibank breaches and the 2023-2030 Cyber Security Strategy. The ASD Essential Eight is the defining local framework, and APRA CPS 234 governs financial-sector security.
