The Australian government supports the use of strong encryption, which underpins the security of sensitive government, commercial and personal information. However, the government is concerned about the use of encrypted communications and storage platforms by terrorist organisations, organised crime groups, child exploitation networks and others involved in serious criminal activity. Addressing this challenge requires a multifaceted approach, including closer cooperation between industry and agencies—where it is reasonable and proportionate—and ensuring agencies have alternative powers and capabilities. The government is not proposing to mandate back doors or weak encryption for all users. This is about targeted access to information via lawful process.

Question agreed to.
