Who’s spying on Australia?

The head of Australia's spy agency, Mike Burgess, has given his annual threat assessment address. The ASIO boss delivered a wide-ranging speech, which discussed 'foreign actors', sabotage, and 'hostile nation states'. But what do those terms actually mean, and how does ASIO respond to these threats? Jennifer Parker is a defence analyst and security expert with ANU's National Security College. She joins us in today's deep dive to unpack what Burgess said, how it impacts our daily lives, and if we should be concerned.

Hosts: Emma Gillespie and Billi FitzSimons
Guest: Jennifer Parker, ANU National Security College Expert Associate
