WA Cyber Capability & Education Directories Launched at CyberWest Summit 2025
Perth, WA – May 28, 2025
In a significant step forward for Western Australia's digital future, CyberWest Hub officially launched the WA Cyber Capability Directory and the Cyber Education Directory at the CyberWest Summit 2025—the state's premier cybersecurity awareness and innovation event.
Held at the Pan Pacific Hotel in Perth, the CyberWest Summit, hosted by CyberWest Hub, brought together industry leaders, educators, government representatives, and cybersecurity professionals to explore the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities in the cyber landscape.
A Strategic Leap Forward
The newly launched Cyber Capability Directory is a centralised platform that connects businesses, government agencies, and individuals with trusted cybersecurity providers across Western Australia. It enables users to discover local expertise, build partnerships, and strengthen cyber resilience across sectors.
Alongside it, the Cyber Education Directory maps out the full spectrum of cybersecurity education and training opportunities—from high school programs to tertiary qualifications and professional development. This tool is designed to support lifelong learning and help grow a skilled, future-ready cyber workforce in WA.
Why These Directories Matter
These initiatives are more than just information hubs—they are strategic enablers aligned with WA's broader goals of:
Economic diversification through the growth of tech-driven industries
Workforce development by nurturing local cybersecurity talent
Cyber resilience for businesses, government, and critical infrastructure
Innovation and collaboration through a connected cyber ecosystem
By launching these tools at its flagship summit, CyberWest Hub reinforces its commitment to building a secure, skilled, and digitally empowered Western Australia.
Leading WA's Cyber Future
As the state's cybersecurity coordination and innovation body, CyberWest Hub continues to lead efforts in raising awareness, fostering industry growth, and supporting education and training. The launch of these directories marks a pivotal milestone in WA's journey to becoming a national leader in cybersecurity capability and workforce development.
