Show Notes
In a groundbreaking move, Igor Gjorgjioski from VicRoads embarked on a digital transformation journey to enhance security and user experience by eliminating traditional passwords. Collaborating with Vincent Delitz from Corbado, a passkeys-as-a-service provider, they successfully implemented one of the largest public sector deployments of passkeys. This initiative aimed to address user friction and bolster security against phishing, with a keen focus on mobile-friendly, phishing-resistant logins. The project's success rested on a phased rollout, careful selection of partners, and strategic nudging of users towards adopting passkeys, setting a new standard for digital authentication in the public sector.

Recorded on day three of CyberCon 2026 in Melbourne, the first episode of the Cyber Voices CyberCon series brings AISA Chair Michael Burchell back into the booth with host David Savva-Willett. Close to 5,800 delegates came through the doors this year, a record for the conference, and the pair reflect on what made it work: a program with a record number of speakers presenting for the first time, a deliberate focus on cyber while a global trend pulls conferences towards AI, and a community that turns up to share what it has learned.

Information stealing malware is not new and not sophisticated. That is precisely what worries Jesse Hoppo, who leads the open source intelligence and cyber crime team within Telstra's Threat Research and Intelligence Group, and who spends a good deal of his time reading what these things send home.
Governance, risk and compliance generates a great deal of manual work, and not all of it is work anyone would miss. Ian Yip's argument is that this is exactly where AI earns its place in a security team, provided nobody mistakes it for judgment.
