EARLY EDITION

  Editor's Note  

Good morning,

One year ago, iTnews ranked the best and the worst Australian state governments based on their IT performance in our inaugural State of IT report.

This year we're back with a new instalment, looking at whether Australia's state, territory and federal governments are doing enough to protect the sensitive personal data of their citizens. To see who came first - and who came last - download the full report here.

Keep an eye out for rolling coverage on the iTnews website this week, and if you think we've missed anything let us know here.

- Paris Cowan
