ASIO

ASIO, or the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation, is Australia's national security agency responsible for protecting the country from threats such as terrorism, espionage, and sabotage. It collects intelligence and conducts investigations to identify risks to national security. ASIO works closely with other government agencies and law enforcement to ensure public safety and uphold the rule of law. While it operates under strict legal frameworks, its activities often include surveillance and monitoring to prevent security threats before they arise. ASIO plays a crucial role in maintaining Australia’s security and protecting its interests both domestically and internationally.
