AFMA would like to advise members and stakeholders that, on or around 13 October 2022, AFMA’s main website (www.afma.com.au) was compromised by an automated cyber-attack, the aim of which was to enhance search indices to promote traffic to a non-related website. AFMA became aware of the attack on 17 October and immediately executed an incident response plan, including rolling back all AFMA websites to their state prior to the attack and enhancing security on all websites. AFMA has a high level of confidence that no personally identifiable information was exposed by the attack as such data is not directly accessible from the website. Accordingly, AFMA’s position is that it has no notification obligation arising from the event but issues this notice for transparency.
Please contact AFMA’s Company Secretary, Rob Colquhoun, at rcolquhoun@afma.com.au if you would like any further information.
