Dear Connor,
You have requested a copy of all information the GCSB holds on the recent cyber attacks on the New Zealand Stock Exchange. As your request is worded currently it would involve substantial collation and research to find all relevant information and we would likely need to extend the time limit for an answer to be given.
Could we limit your request to all information provided to the Minister of the GCSB regarding the cyber attacks? The briefings to the Minister provide an overview of all key information, and are at a classification level where we would be able to release the documents (with some redactions).
Kind regards
GCSB
