  • DP World Australia, responsible for 40 per cent of the country's maritime freight, has closed major ports in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Fremantle.

  • The cybersecurity incident follows a recent national outage from Optus, though the two events are not related.

  • The issue could take days to resolve, leading to significant freight delays, the National Cyber Security Coordinator said.

The government does not yet know who was behind a cybersecurity incident that has shut down Australia's second-largest port operator, and could affect freight in and out of the country for days.
