NOTE
Use of the terms “PACs” and “cyber security” throughout - the term “PACs” (Privacy and Cyber Security) is used frequently throughout this content, with “cyber security” officially defined by ISO as the ‘preservation of confidentiality, integrity and availability of information in the Cyberspace‘. While other terms can have separate nuanced definitions for related terms such as “IT Security”, “ICT Security”, “network security”, “internet security” and so on, use of the terms “PACs” and “cyber security” are both used liberally here to encompass one or all of these overlapping terms depending on context. Hence when a term such as “the PACs marketplace” is used, it may also imply related terms, e.g. “the ICT Security marketplace” or the “network security marketplace” depending on the precise context.
