Government strengthens cyber-defences

The government's launched a new strategy to combat cyber-attacks and hackers.

The cyber-security strategy aims to protect the Island's digital infrastructure, operating alongside international initiatives.

In it, the government says everyone needs to play their part, with involvement from the public and businesses.

Head of the Office of Cyber Security and Information Assurance, Richard Wild, says critical national infrastructure, such as water and power, the hospital and the transport network needs to be carefully guarded.
