 | Senator the Hon. Helen Coonan Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate | | "National E-Security Awareness week runs from 23 to 27 October 2006 and consists of a series of events throughout the country to inform Australians of practical tips they can use to Stay Smart Online. To help Australians Stay Smart Online the Government launched a website - to provide a useful source of advice on how to protect yourself, your family and your business from online threats. National E-Security Awareness week is the result of close collaboration between Government, industry and community organisations. Online security is an issue that affects all of us. In particular, I would like to thank eBay for the time and commitment they have given to developing and participating in the Awareness Week and to ensuring that the Internet remains a useful, productive and safe resource for all Australians." |
