The foundations: MFA, patching, backups, unique passwords and basic staff awareness. A realistic starting point for very small teams.
Servicing businesses all over Australia.
SMB 1001 is the Australian cyber security standard built specifically for small and medium businesses. We get you certification-ready across the Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond tiers.
Why it matters
Large frameworks can be overwhelming for a 10 or 50 person business. SMB 1001 offers tiered, practical controls that grow with you — and increasingly it is what insurers, larger customers and tender panels want to see before they sign.

The tiers
The foundations: MFA, patching, backups, unique passwords and basic staff awareness. A realistic starting point for very small teams.
Documented policies, access control, device management and incident response basics — the tier most SMBs are asked for.
Formal risk management, logging, vendor review and tested recovery procedures for businesses handling sensitive data.
Continuous monitoring, hardened endpoints, privileged access management and measured improvement cycles.
Independently verified maturity with governance reporting suitable for enterprise and government supply chains.
We keep the controls running with Huntress MDR, SentinelOne, patching, backup verification and monthly reporting.
Our process
We confirm which SMB 1001 tier your customers, insurers or contracts require and scope your environment.
Every control is checked against the standard and scored, with evidence captured as we go.
We implement the missing controls — MFA, patching, backups, hardening, policies and training.
We prepare your submission, support the certification process and maintain the controls afterwards.
