The ACSC Essential Eight for Small Business
The Australian Cyber Security Centre recommends eight essential mitigation strategies. We help Brisbane businesses implement all eight — even on a small budget.
Essential Eight Strategies
These are the Australian Government's top recommendations for protecting against cyber threats. We configure all of them during a business security audit.
- Application control (whitelisting)
- Patch applications promptly
- Configure Microsoft Office macros
- User application hardening
- Restrict admin privileges
- Patch operating systems
- Multi-factor authentication
- Regular backups
Most small businesses in Brisbane are only implementing one or two of these strategies. A proper cyber security risk assessment identifies which gaps put you at the highest risk and what to fix first. We prioritise based on your industry, data sensitivity, and budget — not a one-size-fits-all checklist.
Our Cyber Security Process
Four steps to take you from vulnerable to protected — whether you need a one-off security check or ongoing monitoring.
- 1
Assess
We audit your devices, network, accounts, and practices to find every vulnerability
- 2
Protect
Fix issues on the spot — install protection, harden settings, enable MFA, configure backups
- 3
Monitor
Set up ongoing monitoring, automated updates, and alerts so threats are caught early
- 4
Respond
If something gets through, we respond fast — contain, clean, recover, and strengthen
Cyber Security FAQs

How much does cyber security cost for a small business in Brisbane?
A one-off security health check for home users is billed by time at $205/hr onsite or $125/hr remote, with a one-hour minimum. For small businesses, a comprehensive cyber security risk assessment, including network scanning, email security review, MFA setup and a prioritised action plan, is billed by time at $205/hr onsite and quoted before we start. For ongoing protection, see our managed IT plans. We always provide a clear quote before starting work — no surprises.
What's included in a business cybersecurity risk assessment?
We scan your entire network for vulnerabilities, review your router and firewall configuration, check email security settings (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), audit password practices across your team, assess your backup strategy, and map your setup against the ACSC Essential Eight framework. You receive a written report ranking every finding by risk level, plus we fix critical issues on the spot.
Do small businesses really need cyber security?
Yes. The ACSC reports that 43% of cyber attacks target small businesses, and the average cost of a cyber incident for a small business in Australia is over $46,000. Most attacks exploit basic gaps — weak passwords, no MFA, unpatched software, no backups. These are all fixable in a single appointment. You don't need an enterprise budget to be properly protected.
Can you remove malware if my computer is already infected?
Absolutely. Malware removal in Brisbane is one of our most common services. We use professional-grade tools to scan, quarantine, and remove viruses, ransomware, spyware, and trojans. After cleaning, we install protection, update your system, enable MFA on your accounts, and check that no data was compromised. For active ransomware incidents, call us immediately on 1300 600 004.
What is multi-factor authentication and why do I need it?
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds a second verification step when you log in — usually a code from your phone or an authenticator app. Even if someone steals your password, they can't access your account without that second factor. The ACSC lists MFA as one of the Essential Eight strategies. We set up MFA on all your key accounts (email, banking, cloud storage, business apps) in a single session.
How do I set up enterprise password management for my team?
We deploy business-grade password managers (like 1Password Business or Bitwarden Teams) across your team. This includes creating shared vaults for team credentials, setting up individual vaults for personal accounts, enforcing strong password policies, and training your staff on how to use it daily. Enterprise password management in Brisbane is one of the quickest wins for improving your security posture.
Can you help with network security for my Brisbane office?
Yes. Network security in Brisbane is a core part of our service. We audit your router and firewall, segment your network (separate staff, guest, and IoT devices), configure proper WiFi encryption, close open ports, update firmware, and set up DNS filtering. For businesses, we also configure VPN access for remote workers and ensure your network meets compliance requirements.
Do you offer ongoing cyber security monitoring?
Yes. Ongoing protection is part of our managed IT plans, from $1,000 per month (ex GST) for up to 5 users. We proactively watch for threats and respond before they cause damage. This is ideal for small businesses that don't have a dedicated IT team but need consistent protection.
