Cyber Security Awareness Month 2024 is in full swing! 🛡️ Is your online safety up to scratch? Now’s the perfect time to level up your security game and keep yourself—and WA—cyber safe! 👾💻 🔐 Our Cyber Security team suggests two easy moves to protect yourself: 🚪 Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Add an extra layer of protection by requiring more than just a password to log in. It’s like locking your door AND setting up a security system! 🔑 Passphrases > Passwords: Pick four or more random words and you’ve got a passphrase that’s stronger, longer, and way harder to crack! Cyber criminals can break weak passwords in a heartbeat, so let’s outsmart them together. 💡 Stay aware, stay safe, because cyber security is everyone’s business! 🙌 For more tips, visit the Australian Signals Directorate’s site 👉 https://lnkd.in/g-THswin #CyberSecurityAwarenessMonth #StaySafeWA #PassphrasePower

📣 New WA Bid Contribution Policy for Major Projects 🏠 Western Australia has a record pipeline of major infrastructure projects in the pipeline. Finance has been collaborating with the MBA and tier one and two contractors to explore initiatives aimed at increasing market capacity and competition in WA. 🏨 The Minister for Finance announced today the new Bid Contribution Policy for Non-Residential Major Projects. The policy provides a clear, consistent and transparent approach to providing financial contributions of up to $750,000 towards the bid costs incurred by businesses tendering on eligible construction works valued over $100 million. 💸 This includes contributions on critical projects including hospitals, correctional facilities and cultural buildings. ⛪ Value for money and timely delivery is a priority, that’s why we #collaborated with industry to implement best practice. We created this policy to encourage more businesses to make WA their State of choice. By encouraging wider participation, we’re building a stronger, more diverse market that benefits everyone.
