The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) on Friday told a Senate committee it has a dedicated team that handles cybersecurity-related concerns, in particular around pen-testing and protecting against vulnerabilities, and as a result, it doesn’t need to always seek the assistance of the likes of the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD).

While the ASD is a government entity responsible for foreign intelligence collection and information security, the ATO’s CIO Ramez Katf and CDO John Dardo backed its own approach, saying its team handles cybersecurity across its organisation.
