Hi All

More Australians are “being targeted for espionage and foreign interference than ever before,” the head of the country’s domestic security agency has warned.

“Australians need to know that the threat is real. The threat is now. And the threat is deeper and broader than you might think,” said Mike Burgess, delivering the agency’s annual threat assessment on Wednesday evening.

The director general of the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) said there was a “a particular team in a particular foreign intelligence service with a particular focus on Australia – we are its priority target.” Although he did not name the nation state or provide any details about their tactics, he called the threat group “the A-team.”
