The Essential Eight is a cybersecurity framework developed by the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) to help organizations protect against cyber threats. It includes eight key mitigation strategies that, when implemented together, provide strong protection against common attack vectors. It's mandatory for many government contractors and recommended for all Australian businesses.

CVE Spotlight provides real-time tracking of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that affect Australian businesses. We filter and prioritize vulnerabilities based on their potential impact on Australian organizations, providing actionable intelligence and mitigation guidance.

When selecting a cybersecurity MSP, evaluate their SOC capabilities, Essential Eight expertise, incident response track record, industry certifications, and local Australian presence. Look for providers with 24/7 monitoring, rapid response times, and proven experience in your industry sector.

Immediately isolate affected systems, preserve evidence, activate your incident response plan, and contact cybersecurity experts. For Australian businesses, you may also need to report eligible data breaches to the OAIC within 72 hours under the Privacy Act 1988.

Australian businesses typically allocate 3-10% of their IT budget to cybersecurity, with higher percentages for organizations handling sensitive data. The average cost of a data breach in Australia is $3.35 million, making cybersecurity investment essential for business protection.

IT security focuses on protecting information systems and data from unauthorized access, while cybersecurity is broader, encompassing protection against digital attacks, cyber threats, and online risks. Cybersecurity includes IT security but extends to threat intelligence, incident response, and proactive defense against evolving cyber threats.
