In short: Goods coming in and out of Australia are at a stand still because a major port operator DP World has shut down land operations in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Fremantle
The federal government is helping respond to the incident.
What's next? The National Cyber Security Coordinator the situation could take days to resolve, which the ABC understands could lead to significant freight delays.
Australia's second largest port operator has shut down because of a cyber security incident, impacting the movement of goods in and out of the country.
Rather concerning really that a potentially hostile actor can jam up 40% of Australia's maritime freight handling like that. Several days of impeded operations in major ports has got to cause some major problems in downstream logistics issues, I would not envy anyone trying to sort that out.
this should be part of the national critical infrastructure list, so there should have been significant security in place, its a worry if it has been compromised
