Cyber Policy Experts on Australian Hospital Cyberattack Response

Hospitals across Australia are on alert after an Iranian cyber militia linked to the Islamic Republic hacked a global medical equipment supplier. The group Handala has claimed responsibility for the attack on US medical technology giant Stryker, which supplies equipment used in Australian hospitals. There's been no disruption here so far but cybersecurity experts warn the incident could be the first attack in a broader wave of cyber activity, as tensions escalate in the Middle East. Analysts say attacks on US companies can quickly ripple into allied economies like Australia — particularly in sectors such as healthcare, energy, banking and finance. Thanks to Justin Henderson, Matt O'Kane and Christopher McNaughton for their insights. If you work in cybersecurity, national security or government cyber policy and have insight into how organisations are preparing for incidents like this, reach out.

Independent Musicians on New Tech for Fairer Streaming Payouts

Independent musicians: How could new tech help create fairer streaming payouts? Hey all, I’ve been thinking a lot about how indie artists are compensated on major streaming platforms. Even musicians with thousands of streams often earn very little, which makes it tough to sustain a career without relying on live shows or merch. At the same time, technology is creating opportunities we haven’t had before. With cloud infrastructure and AI-assisted tools, it’s easier than ever to build scalable, artist-friendly platforms without massive budgets. I’d love to hear from the community about the following: How have streaming platforms impacted your income or reach as an independent musician. Is user centric payout an ideal solution? i. e. Customer subscribes to the service and listen to Artist A (50% of the time) and B (remaining 50%) only. Customer's subscription payment gets split equally among artist A and B as their payout. Platform itself is a non-profit.
