Cyber crime costs the Australian economy an estimated $29 billion a year.

Cyber Wardens is working to protect against cyber crime by building a cyber-smart small business workforce across Australia. The free and easy online program is designed by small business, for small business, upskilling the nation’s small business workforce and giving owners and employees the tools they need to stay safe online. By identifying and preventing a single scam attack, a trained Cyber Warden could save a small business tens of thousands of dollars.

Cyber Wardens is an initiative of the Council of Small Business Organisations of Australia, supported by an industry alliance led by Telstra, CommBank and the Australian Cyber Security Centre and delivered by 89 Degrees East.
