The best time to uplift your cybersecurity efforts is now.

No industry in Australia is immune to cyber threats. Across financial services, healthcare, government, education, and critical infrastructure, many organisations still operate with limited security visibility, inconsistent controls, and minimal protection against lateral movement and identity‑based attacks.

While compliance obligations such as APRA CPS 234, the Protective Security Policy Framework (PSPF), and the ACSC ISM remain important, passing an audit should never be the primary driver for improving security.

What matters most is protecting your organisation’s people, data, intellectual property, and customers in a rapidly evolving threat landscape.

Zero Trust and Micro‑Segmentation by Design

CBS security uplift engagements increasingly embed end-to-end visibility, Zero Trust architecture and micro‑segmentation as core design principles, based on real‑world delivery experience. This includes:

  • Identity‑centric access control using strong authentication and continuous risk evaluation
  • Segmentation of workloads, services, and network paths to reduce lateral movement
  • Integration of endpoint, identity, network, and workload telemetry into Microsoft Sentinel for unified visibility
  • Continuous posture management and policy enforcement using Microsoft Defender for Cloud
  • Design patterns aligned to modern defensive architecture guidance and ACSC recommendations

This approach draws on CBS experience delivering government security uplifts and Defender and Sentinel implementations, and modern defensive architecture assessments, addressing gaps in implicit trust and legacy segmentation models.

Free Microsoft 365 Security Assessment

As a first step to improving your security posture, CBS offers a Free Microsoft 365 Security Assessment for eligible Australian organisations. The assessment provides an independent review of your Microsoft 365 security configuration against recognised baselines and industry best practices, helping identify key risks, priority improvements, and opportunities to maximise existing investment value. It delivers
  • Clear visibility of security gaps and high‑risk misconfigurations
  • Practical, prioritised recommendations and quick wins
  • An executive‑ready summary to support next steps

The assessment is non‑intrusive, does not access customer data, can be completed within a short engagement window, and is often used as the starting point for a broader cybersecurity or Zero Trust uplift.

Delivered by experts. Trusted by industry leaders.
