Australia’s cyber agency will pay Deloitte more than $47,000 a day to help run a threat sharing platform that the consulting giant helped to establish, and which almost no government entity was using before last year.

The Australian Signals Directorate (ASD), housing the Australian Cyber Security Centre, struck a new $17.3 million deal with Deloitte to sustain the Cyber Threat Intelligence Sharing (CTIS) platform for the next year.

Deloitte was brought in to expand the platform shortly after in launched in 2021 under an initial $1.4 million contract. It rose 30-fold and ended last month as the consulting firm’s biggest federal deal.
