The Australian Open today announced CyberCX - Australia’s leading cyber security provider - has extended its partnership with Tennis Australia and will continue as the Official Cyber Security Partner of the Australian Open in 2025.
This is the third year CyberCX will provide cyber security services to support the delivery of the Grand Slam.
Tennis Australia Chief Commercial Officer Cedric Cornelis said: “We are delighted to continue our partnership with CyberCX - Australia’s leading cyber security provider.
“As the biggest sport and entertainment event globally in January, it’s critical that we have the right supports in place and expertise on hand, which is why our partnership with CyberCX is such an important one.”
CyberCX CEO John Paitaridis said: “It’s a privilege for CyberCX to be partnering with Tennis Australia over a number of years, and we are proud once again to be the Cyber Security Partner of the Australian Open as the eyes of the world turn to Australia for one of the pre-eminent sporting events globally.
“Our mission at CyberCX is to protect the communities in which we live, and sport is integral to the fabric of communities right across Australia.
