More than 400 cyber attacks have affected Australian government networks in the past year, figures reveal.

From January last year to this January there were 405 cyber incidents, an increase from 220 in the previous year, some of which were ''very sophisticated'', Department of Defence figures obtained by this website show.

One of the attacks by internet activist group Anonymous, called Operation Titstorm, took down the then prime minister Kevin Rudd's website and the parliamentary website in February last year. The parliamentary website crashed for three days after being bombarded with 7.5 million hits a second.

Attacks such as this should not be seen as ''legitimate forms of protest activity but rather are public nuisance akin to vandalism'', a spokeswoman for the Attorney-General's Department said.
