Its key messages include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The end of the Cold War allowed for a burgeoning of the security agenda to include a recognition of the broader range of vulnerabilities that exist in modern society, and the ability of contemporary security threats to affect the everyday lives of people.<\/li>\n<li>Australia should continue to get a better understanding of these dynamics and how they interact.<\/li>\n<li>Our national security governance system is proving inefficient and somewhat of a constraint for action.<\/li>\n<li>Its essential to develop nation-wide capabilities against a number of challenges.<\/li>\n<li>The business and community sectors need to be involved in national security efforts.<\/li>\n<li>The balance of Australia\u2019s spending on national security does not align with the risks we face.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0The change in the extent, vectors and nature of contemporary crime make a stronger Commonwealth role necessary.<\/li>\n<li>Cutting resources in areas such as criminal intelligence gathering and analysis is a false economy.<\/li>\n<li>Cyber space is an important source of power for states and non-state actors alike.<\/li>\n<li>The number of Australian Government agencies and private sector companies with an interest in cybersecurity are vast. This adds complexity to policy development in this area.<\/li>\n<li>While efforts in technical cybersecurity measures have been positive, policy development in this field has not been as effective. A lead agency is needed for this area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>National security is a broad and expanding field, and a short submission cannot cover everything. ASPI looks forward to further refining its recommendations in these areas and keenly awaits the Commission\u2019s interim report.<\/p>\n<p><i>David Connery is ASPI\u2019s senior analyst for the Strategic Policing and Law Enforcement Program and\u00a0<\/i><i>Tobias Feakin is the director of ASPI\u2019s International Cyber Policy Centre and senior analyst for National Security.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In addition the making a submission on defence efficiency to the National Commission of Audit, ASPI also provided on a paper on national security priorities.
