Cyber security compliance in Perth

Compliance you can actually show someone.

The Privacy Act, the Essential Eight, ASIC expectations and cyber insurance forms all end up asking the same thing: can you prove it? We set your IT up properly, then write down the evidence, so the answer is yes.

  • Every review Evidence refreshed, not written once and forgotten
  • Plain English Policies your staff will actually read

Proving compliance to insurers and clients

Same question. Very different week.

An insurer, a licensee or a big client asks how you protect their data. Here’s what that looks like with and without the groundwork done. Pick a situation.

Your cyber insurance renewal arrives with a long security questionnaire.

Scrambling for answers

  1. Forward it to ITThey reply with questions of their own.
  2. Guess the answers“Do we have MFA on everything?” Probably.
  3. Tick yes to be safeAnd hope nobody checks.
  4. Claim at riskA wrong answer can give the insurer grounds to decline.

Premium paid. Cover uncertain.

Cyber security compliance standards in Australia

One set of controls. Every framework.

Most frameworks ask for the same things: multi-factor authentication (MFA), patching, backups, access control and a response plan. We build them once, then map them to each obligation that applies to you.

  • Privacy Act & Notifiable Data Breaches

    Reasonable steps to protect personal information, and a tested process to assess and report an eligible data breach.

  • Essential Eight

    The Australian Signals Directorate’s (ASD) baseline controls, assessed against the maturity model and uplifted in a practical order.

  • ASIC cyber resilience

    Since ASIC v RI Advice (2022), Australian financial services licensees are expected to manage cyber risk adequately. We give you the controls and records to show it.

  • Tax practitioner obligations

    ATO security requirements for online services, and the client-data handling expected of registered tax agents.

  • Cyber insurance

    Questionnaires answered accurately from what’s configured, so a claim isn’t undone by a wrong tick.

  • Client & supplier due diligence

    Security questionnaires from larger clients, answered with evidence rather than optimism.

What’s included in compliance and governance

Governance, without hiring a compliance department.

Practical, documented and kept current. The + Compliance and Complete plans include staff training, vendor reviews and, from 30 seats, the Technology Success Program. Policy and evidence work is quoted as a fixed fee after a free review.

  • Gap assessment

    Where you stand against the obligations that apply to you, in plain English.

  • Policies written for you

    Information security, acceptable use, access control and incident response. Specific to you, not templates.

  • Incident response plan

    Who does what in the first hour, day and week, including data breach assessment steps.

  • Evidence pack

    Reports and screenshots showing controls are in place, refreshed at every review.

  • Access reviews

    Who can see what, checked regularly. Leavers removed the day they go.

  • Staff training records

    Phishing simulations and awareness training, reported so you can show an auditor.

  • Compliance tracking

    Obligations from your licensee, insurer and clients tracked in regular Technology Success meetings.

  • Questionnaire support

    Insurance, licensee and client forms drafted from real configuration.

  • Partner & board reporting

    A short, readable summary of your security posture for decision-makers.

  • Password & MFA hygiene

    A managed password manager, and MFA on every account that supports it.

  • Vendor risk checks

    Key software and cloud suppliers reviewed for how they handle your data.

  • Controls, not just paperwork

    Policies only count if the settings match. Our security team does the technical work.
