(a)-(d) The PTA manages cyber risks in accordance with the WA Government Cyber Security Policy.
Publicly disclosing agency cyber security risk profiles can increase the risk of vulnerability to malicious threat actors and attacks. Providing the information requested in a public domain poses a high risk to the confidentiality and integrity of the department’s information system.
