The National Cyber Security Centre is part of the Government Communications Security Bureau. It released its Cyber Threat quarterly report for the last three months of 2024.
“This quarter, the NCSC handled 1,358 incident reports through its two distinct triage processes,” the report said. “Of these, 100 incidents were triaged for specialist support because of their potential national significance. This is a slight increase from 98 incidents of potential national significance in Q3 2024.
“The reports this quarter were varied – ranging from incidents affecting computers and accounts, bank impersonations, and romance scams. Articles detailing some of these incidents can be read in the report, as well as more about Malware Free Networks – the NCSC’s award-winning service that works to detect and disrupt malicious cyber activity and to keep networks free from it.
“This quarter also saw a significant decrease (54%) in reports of phishing and credential harvesting – however, this does not indicate that less cybercrime is occurring. Reporting cybercrime is important in helping the NCSC to better understand and respond to the threats New Zealanders faces.”
