Profile
The organisation is known by the alias Queensland and has its headquarters located in Australia. It operates within the Australian jurisdiction and is recognised under this alternative name in certain contexts. No further details about its core products, services, or market scope are provided in the available information. The organisation’s structural attributes such as ownership, parent or subsidiary relationships are not specified in the source material.
On 10 November 2023 the organisation experienced a cybersecurity incident that disrupted operations at major Australian ports managed by DP World. The incident prompted port closures expected to last multiple days and affected national import and export activities. In response the Australian Federal Police launched an investigation while the Australian government activated its National Coordination Mechanism, a framework previously used during COVID‑19 and other major cyber events. Landside operations, including truck access to container terminals, were restricted as the affected entity contained the breach, although ship movements continued unaffected. Technical assistance was supplied by the Australian Cyber Security Centre, and ongoing assessments were undertaken to determine the full scope of system and data impacts. These details constitute the only confirmed incident information available for the organisation.
