Australian Signals Directorate (ASD)

The Australian Signals Directorate’s Cyber Security Partnership Program enables collaboration between government, industry and academia to strengthen Australia’s cyber resilience.

WorkSec & the ASD Cyber Security Partnership

WorkSec is proud to be a recognised Cyber Security Partner under the Australian Signals Directorate’s (ASD) Cyber Security Partnership Program. This partnership connects WorkSec with a trusted national network of organisations, helping to share threat intelligence, strengthen collaboration, and improve the overall resilience of Australia’s cyber ecosystem.

About the Partnership Program

The ASD’s Cyber Security Partnership Program brings together government, industry, academia and the community to lift national cyber resilience. Through the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC), members of the program share threat information, best practices and early warnings to strengthen their defences against evolving cyber threats.

The program is open to organisations and individuals who want to play an active role in protecting Australia’s digital infrastructure. It supports collaboration across sectors through intelligence sharing, awareness campaigns and coordinated incident response activities.
