Is the Essential Eight mandatory for Australian businesses?

The Essential Eight is mandatory for non-corporate Commonwealth entities. For private sector businesses, it is increasingly required for government contracts, enterprise supply chains, cyber insurance, and regulated sectors including finance, healthcare and critical infrastructure.

Do you provide cyber security across all Australian states?

Yes. We deliver managed security services to businesses across NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, ACT, TAS and NT — all monitored from Australia, no offshore components.

Can Australian businesses get cyber security without managed IT?

Yes. Managed security (MDR, EDR, Essential Eight) is available as a standalone service for businesses with existing IT providers.

What does cyber security cost for an Australian SMB?

Managed security services for a 20–100 person Australian business typically run $30–$60 per user per month on top of managed IT, or $2,000–$8,000 per month as a standalone SOC service.
