A real human answers
No offshore call centres. No ticketing-system black holes. When something goes wrong, you talk to someone who knows your business.
Ready to see what we'd find?
Book a free 30-minute consultation. We'll do a quick external review of your business, talk through your top three risks, and give you a no-obligation price.
Stop losing sleep over "what if we get hacked"
One ransomware attack costs the average Australian SME $46,000+ in recovery, downtime, and lost trust. Ongoing protection from CyberSafe Australia is a fraction of that — and you get to sleep at night.
What We Offer
Four services. Complete protection.
Every business is different. We've identified the four most critical cybersecurity services that Australian SMEs need — packaged affordably and delivered by trained professionals using industry-standard tools.
🔍
Security Assessments

Follow-up walkthrough with your team
Ideal for: businesses without a security baseline

About Us
Cybersecurity, but actually human.
CyberSafe Australia exists for one reason: too many Australian small businesses are unprotected, not because they don't care, but because the industry has priced and over-complicated cybersecurity beyond what an SME can absorb. We're changing that.
01 — VISION
🌏
The world we're building
"An Australia where every small business has equal access to the cybersecurity protection a Fortune 500 takes for granted — without the Fortune 500 price tag."
We believe cyber resilience should be a baseline, not a luxury. Whether you're a 4-person accounting firm in Parramatta or a 40-person retailer in Newcastle, the threats are the same — so the protection should be too.
02 — MISSION
🎯
How we deliver it
"Deliver professional, affordable cybersecurity to Australian SMEs — and reinvest part of every dollar into protecting the most vulnerable Australians from scams."
A portion of every business plan funds free scam-prevention workshops for elderly Australians in our community. Cybersecurity that protects your business, and helps protect the people who need it most.

How It Works
From "I need help" to fully protected
Four straightforward steps. Most clients are onboarded within 14 days.
01
Free consultation
A 30-minute call. We learn about your business, your concerns, and your current setup. Zero pressure, zero obligation.
02
Risk assessment
We perform an initial review of your systems and produce a plain-English report with the top risks and recommended fixes.
03
Tailored plan
Based on your findings, we recommend the right plan. No upsells. If Starter is enough, we'll say so.
04
Ongoing protection
You get monthly scans, reports, training, and a real human at the end of the phone. We renew on results — never on contracts.
Community Impact
Protection that goes beyond business.
Every business plan we sell helps fund free cybersecurity workshops for elderly Australians — the people most targeted by online scams, and least equipped to fight back. When you protect your business with us, you help protect them too.
🧓 Free workshops for seniors
Hands-on, 90-minute workshops delivered at local senior citizens' clubs, libraries, and aged care centres across Sydney. We use real phones, real scam examples, and patient instructors — so attendees leave more confident, not more confused.
Spotting fake "Telstra technician" and "ATO" scams
Safe online banking & MyGov use
Recognising suspicious messages on WhatsApp & SMS
What to do (and who to call) if you've been scammed
🤝 Why we do it
Australians over 65 lose more money to scams per capita than any other age group. They're often isolated, unfamiliar with digital systems, and reluctant to ask family for help. The traditional cybersecurity industry has nothing to offer them — there's no profit in protecting a pensioner.
So we built a model where there is. Every paying business client subsidises a small share of our community work. It's not charity — it's how we believe a modern Australian business should operate.
Run a community group, library, or aged care centre?
If you'd like to host a free CyberSafe workshop for your members, we'd love to hear from you. We cover all costs — there's nothing to pay.
Frequently Asked Questions
The honest answers first.
If your question isn't here, just send it through the contact form — a real person will reply within one business day.
Correct. Every plan is month-to-month. You can pause, cancel, switch tiers, or change scope at any time, with no exit fees. We charge for the month you've used and that's it. We genuinely believe if our work is good, you'll stay — no contract required.
Most clients go from first consultation to fully onboarded in 10–14 days. The free consultation can usually be scheduled within 48 hours. If your situation is urgent — e.g. you suspect you've already been compromised — we can prioritise same-week assessment.
Starter and Growth plans include incident response with a 4-hour SLA during business hours. The Shield plan includes 24/7 monitoring and a 2-hour SLA, including evenings and weekends. For all plans, an emergency contact line is provided at onboarding so you're never stuck searching for who to call.
Yes — and unfortunately, more than larger businesses. Attackers actively target small businesses because they assume defences are weak. The good news: at 3 people, the Starter plan ($299/month) is enough to dramatically reduce your risk. Most damage comes from phishing emails and unpatched software — both of which we cover at every tier.
Those firms are excellent — at protecting enterprise. Their pricing typically starts at $1,800–$8,000/month and they require 6–12 month contracts. For an SME, that's not just expensive; it's also the wrong product. We use the same industry-standard tools (Nmap, Nessus, EDR platforms) but built around how SMEs actually work: leaner, faster, and 60–70% cheaper.
Cybersecurity firms have to walk the talk. We follow Essential Eight controls, encrypt all client data at rest and in transit, restrict internal access on least-privilege basis, and undergo annual external penetration testing. Full details available under NDA on request.
Yes. Insurers increasingly require evidence of regular vulnerability scanning, staff training, and incident-response procedures. Our Growth and Shield plans produce all the documentation you'll need for a renewal questionnaire — and we've helped multiple clients reduce their premium by qualifying for "managed security" discounts.
We're based in Sydney and most of our clients are NSW-based, but we deliver remote services Australia-wide. On-site visits (assessments, training) are most cost-effective for clients within the Sydney metro area, but we've worked with regional businesses successfully via remote tooling and the occasional planned visit.
Get In Touch
Let's talk about your business.
A 30-minute call, no obligation, no pressure. We'll listen to your situation, share what we'd recommend, and give you a transparent quote — even if that quote is "you don't need us yet."
