In Berlin on his way to the G20 Leaders Summit in Turkey, Mr Turnbull made a 5.30am press statement after talks with security chiefs and other members of his National Security Committee of Cabinet.
"The home of freedom has been assaulted by terrorists determined to attack and suppress freedom not just in France but throughout the world," the Prime Minister said.
"This is an attack, as President Obama has said, on all humanity."
Mr Turnbull said Australia stands shoulder to shoulder with France, which he praised for its response to the attacks that are believed to have killed at least 120 people and injured hundreds more.
He said he could not confirm whether any Australians had been killed but embassy staff were working hard to account for the thousands believed to currently be in France.
Australians should be reassured that security agencies don't believe there is a need to raise the terrorism alert level at home, he said.
The alert level has been high since   September last year. "Above all Australians should be reassured that we have the finest security agencies in the world. We have a government that is utterly committed to protecting the safety of Australians at home and so far as we can abroad," Mr Turnbull said.
"Protecting Australians, protecting freedom, is a global struggle for freedom against those who seek to suppress it and seek to assert some form of religious tyranny. A threat in the name of God, that is truthfully the work of the devil." Opposition Leader Bill Shorten also condemned the attacks.
"These acts of murder and hatred are as inhuman as they are cowardly," he said in a statement.
