Australian Ethical statement: Super Industry Cyber Security
Australian Ethical is unaffected in the recent cyber-attack of super funds
Published 4 Apr 2025 | 1 min read
You may have seen press regarding a cyber attack on many superfunds. Our analysis so far shows that Australian Ethical is unaffected.
While the reported attacks appear to involve the reuse of passwords exposed in earlier data breaches, we are not being complacent.
- We have multi factor authentication for all members, and internal controls to protect members in these circumstances.
- We have had heightened monitoring in place since being informed of a potential issue with other funds earlier in the week.
However, we encourage you to ensure your password is unique. Other actions you can take to protect your account are:
- Be viligant on any changes to your account, unusual emails/SMS , or authentication codes that you didn't request.
- If you unexpectedly receive such a code then please contact us immediately on 1800 021 227.
- Never give your authentication code to anyone - we will never ask you for an authentication code.
