The conference theme is 'Building
resilient systems that address advanced
persistent threats'. The advance
persistent threat (APT) from cyber
incursion and attacks on organizations
and individuals is increasing and is
threatening economic and even social
stability. The aim is to explore the
issues, problems and possible solutions
to the APT posed by cyber attacks.
Resilience in systems is crucial to
protect national critical
infrastructures from failing
catastrophically in the event of
sustained cyber attack. These issues of
resilience are complex and manifest, and
require significant consideration and
research. The solution to these issues
is not wholly found in technical
solutions to the problem, but in fact
are a combination of policy,
implementation and maintenance that uses
a total system approach.
