Policy Australian Superannuation Cyber Security Forum

Strengthening the cyber resilience of the superannuation sector

The Australian Superannuation Cybersecurity Forum (ASCF) is an industry-wide collaborative forum established to strengthen the cyber resilience of the superannuation sector and the critical service providers that support it.

Delivered by the FSC, the Forum brings together security and operational practitioners to share threat intelligence, build capability and promote consistent, practical approaches to managing cyber risk across the superannuation ecosystem.

The Forum provides a trusted, confidential environment for collaboration, discussion and problem-solving, helping participants stay ahead of an fast evolving threat landscape while improving their collective ability to protect members, assets and data.

Through the Forum, participants gain access to shared intelligence, peer insights and industry experience across a broad range of cyber security matters.

Key areas of focus include:

• Timely sharing of threat intelligence, emerging risks and incident learnings across the sector

• Development and adoption of common standards, controls and best-practice approaches to cyber risk management

• Collaboration and engagement between funds, service providers and regulators to support coordinated and effective outcomes

• Peer-to-peer learning and knowledge sharing from experienced security practitioners

• Timely updates and interpretation of regulatory, policy, and operational developments affecting cyber security

• Tools, frameworks and coordinated approaches designed to strengthen resilience and protect member outcomes

The Forum also provides a valuable platform for identifying shared vulnerabilities and developing collaborative responses that improve the sector's collective security posture.

Participation is open to all superannuation funds and their critical service providers, regardless of FSC membership status. As part of the FSC's commitment to supporting industry capability and resilience, the Forum is offered free of charge to encourage broad participation and sector-wide collaboration.
