$23.4 million Cyber Wardens scheme kicks off with Melbourne business beta session

COSBOA

Forty Victorian small businesses will today experience their first hands-on Cyber Wardens session, a debut event for the cybersecurity training scheme set to receive more $23 million in federal government funding.

Cyber Wardens, led by the Council of Small Business Organisations of Australia (COSBOA), is an industry-powered initiative designed to provide small business operators the tools and education they need to ward off digital threats.

Created in partnership with Telstra, Commonwealth Bank, and input from the Australian Cyber Security Centre, Cyber Wardens received $23.4 million in funding through the 2023-2023 federal budget, putting it front and centre of Canberra’s small business defence strategy.
