Penten is proud to announce that our CEO Greg Barsby has been named Co-Chair of the Ai Group Defence Council, alongside Paul Chase CEO of Leidos Australia and Asia. Defence Industry is at a critical juncture, with a massive industrial transformation required to deliver AUKUS and a need for Australian companies to explore international opportunities to fill in gaps in domestic defence acquisition. Greg's role on the Ai Group Defence Council will be critical in bringing the voice of Australian high-tech SME's to the policy table.
I am delighted to Co-Chair the Ai Group Defence Council alongside Paul Chase. It is a privilege to help represent defence industry during a time of increasing geopolitical uncertainty and in support of critical partnerships such as AUKUS. The Australian Industry Group (Ai Group) Defence Council plays an important role in the growth and sustainment of our national defence industry, in support of Australia’s national security and prosperity. Thank you to our outgoing Chair, Andy Keough CSC for your stewardship and contribution over the past six years. https://lnkd.in/gmCrnjwB

RF Engineer, Georgia provided some words of encouragement “As a finalist for the 'Rising Star' award at the 2023 Australian Cyber Security Awards, I can attest to the rewarding and impactful careers that await in engineering and cybersecurity. I encourage all women considering an engineering degree to pursue their passion and make their mark” To all the women considering a career in engineering “don't let fear of not being good enough stop you. Don't doubt your abilities. Engineering is for everyone.” said Software Engineer, Kathryn. Thank you to all our women engineers for your hard work, inspiration, and excellence. Your contributions make Penten a stronger and more innovative company every day. #INWED2024 #ShapeTheWorld #WomenInEngineering #EngineeringHeroes #DiversityInEngineering

Great work by our colleagues at Amiosec - repping the brand at #CyberUK and bringing new innovations across our shared cryptography and #AI solutions. We can't wait for our next opportunity to showcase these platforms at #MilCIS here in Canberra later in the year!
CyberUK 2024 lookback! What a fantastic opportunity to connect with industry leaders and cybersecurity professionals. The unveiling of our applied AI offering and the launch of a new capability in collaboration with L3Harris Technologies were significant milestones for our company, and we are grateful for the positive reception we received. Thank you to the National Cyber Security Centre for hosting such a brilliant event! Read more about our time at CyberUK here: https://lnkd.in/eH7JisSf

Federal and State Governments play a hugely important role in supporting the private sector to uplift #cybersecurity. But we can't ignore the reality that Government itself is a huge target for nation-state and criminal actors. And our Board member Marcus Thompson, AM, PhD calls out analysis showing that many parts of Government have a long way to go in uplifting their own security posture. Through our Secure Mobility and Active Cyber Defence solutions Penten is committed to doing our part to help protect those who protect us. Reach out if you work in #government and want to know more about how we can help.
The Australian Government’s Cyber Security Strategy focuses on how the private sector and Australian citizens can uplift their #cyber posture. While this is a noble and laudable cause, it’s important the Government also uplifts the APS’ #cybersecurity posture, because without a secure public service, cybercriminals have the potential to render everything else useless. I'm grateful to The Canberra Times for publishing this op ed. https://lnkd.in/gEVf3GM9
The govt can properly fund its own cyber security for the first time

Penten's people remain committed to our mission of developing technology to protect those who protect us. Lest we forget.

Our CEO Greg Barsby, CFO Sarah C. Bailey and other Penten executive team members were privileged to join Susan McGinty, Dr at the launch of her White Paper 'Advancing the Cyber Security Sector - Pathway to a Diverse and Inclusive Cyber Security Workforce.' An inspired venue at Muse Bookshop to hear Susan and the panel discuss key themes including how tailoring leadership development programs for women in #cyber can improve #innovation output and profitability. Susan shared incredible statistics from Japan showing that gender diversity improved economic returns from innovation by more than 50%! Give Susan a follow on LinkedIn, and check out her leadership accelerator courses at Aya Leadership. Thanks for the invitation and the discussion today Susan!
