The question isn't whether you'll be targeted. It's when. And whether you're ready.

How we work

From first review to a posture you can prove

Cyber security isn't a product you buy once. We assess, protect, watch and re-score, so your defence keeps pace with the threat.

1

Cyber Maturity Review

We benchmark your current posture, find the gaps, and show you where you stand against the Australian SMB standard. No charge, no obligation.

2

Roll out the stack

Endpoint, email security, MFA, password management and awareness training, deployed in priority order so the biggest risks close first.

3

Monitor around the clock

Our Security Operations Centre watches your environment 24/7, so threats are caught and handled in real time, not discovered weeks later.

4

Re-score every year

We re-score you against SMB1001 each year and keep the evidence, so your certification stays current and you can prove your posture to clients and insurers.

Why Internal IT

Why Australian businesses are taking cyber more seriously

Cyber attacks against Australian small and medium businesses are growing every year. Most businesses do not realise they are a target until it is too late. The cost of a serious incident can be six figures, and recovery often takes weeks of disruption you cannot afford.

We focus on prevention first. Our approach gives your business a measurable cyber posture, not a vague reassurance. You will know your score, you will know your gaps, and you will have a plan to close them.

Standards we work to

Security you can measure against a real standard

We don't ask you to take "we're secure" on faith. We align every client to SMB1001, the Australian cyber standard built for small and medium business, and we can layer the Essential 8 on top where enterprise clients, government tenders or insurers require it.

Both give you a measured, evidenced posture rather than a vague reassurance, with a report you can hand to anyone who asks.

Start measured, stay measured

Most SMBs start with SMB1001 Gold for a recognised, audited certification, then add Essential 8 alignment where bigger clients or insurers ask for it.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Are small businesses really being targeted?
Yes. The Australian Signals Directorate's most recent report shows the average self-reported cost of cybercrime per report for business is now $80,850, with small businesses reporting $56,600. Attackers target SMBs precisely because they typically have weaker defences than large enterprises but still hold valuable data.
What is SMB1001 and why do you mention it everywhere?
SMB1001 is the Australian cyber security standard built specifically for small and medium businesses. It's a measurable, certifiable score you can show clients, insurers and regulators, much like a food hygiene rating for cyber. We're SMB1001 Gold certified ourselves and we align every client to the same standard. It's how we make "you're secure" provable rather than just claimed.
Do you handle cyber security only, or full IT support too?
Both. Our cyber security stack is included in our managed IT service, but we also work with businesses who already have an internal IT team or another provider and just want us to handle their cyber posture. Either model works.
What happens if we get hit with a cyber incident?
We have a documented incident response plan. We isolate affected systems, contain the spread, restore from clean backups, and work with you (and your cyber insurer if applicable) through the recovery. Existing clients also get priority response. The goal is to make incidents survivable, and ideally to prevent them in the first place.
Will this reduce my cyber insurance premium?
Many cyber insurers now recognise SMB1001 certification, particularly at Silver and Gold tiers, and may offer reduced premiums or improved coverage terms. We have seen clients use their certification to negotiate better insurance outcomes. Talk to your broker about how they treat SMB1001 evidence at renewal.
How quickly can you get us protected?
The first wave of protections (MFA, endpoint, email security) can typically be in place within 2 to 4 weeks. Reaching SMB1001 Gold alignment usually takes 90 to 180 days depending on starting point. The free Cyber Maturity Review will give you a realistic timeline based on your current setup.
