About ASCF

An industry-wide collaborative forum

The Australian Superannuation Cyber Security Forum (ASCF) is an industry-wide collaborative forum established to strengthen the cyber resilience of the superannuation sector and the critical service providers that support it.

Delivered by the FSC, the Forum brings together security and operational practitioners to share threat intelligence, build capability and promote consistent, practical approaches to managing cyber risk across the superannuation ecosystem.

The Forum provides a trusted, confidential environment for collaboration, discussion and problem-solving, helping participants stay ahead of a fast-evolving threat landscape while improving their collective ability to protect members, assets and data.

Through the Forum, participants gain access to shared intelligence, peer insights and industry experience across a broad range of cyber security matters.
