Security Legislation Amendment (Critical Infrastructure Protection) Act 2022 (SLACIP Act)

Security of industrial systems is becoming increasingly critical to the well-being of society as a whole. The continuous function of mining operations, oil and gas, chemical plants, manufacturers, power, and water is critical to the economy – and life itself.

Protecting the world of ICS/OT is a deeply complex mission. To ensure that operators are focused on that mission, the Australian Government passed the Security Legislation Amendment (Critical Infrastructure Protection) Act 2022 (SLACIP Act), which went into effect on 2 April 2022.
