Protecting Newcastle businesses that run critical operations

Port, energy, logistics and health businesses around Newcastle rely on systems that cannot be offline for long, and defence suppliers near Williamtown face security questionnaires. Cyber security in Newcastle starts with the basics, such as multi-factor sign-in, patching and backups, and maps them to what clients ask.

Working across the country is routine for us. For Newcastle projects we set a regular call time, keep decisions in writing and share progress as it happens, and we can travel to the Hunter for workshops when it adds value.

  • Operational systems isolated
  • Defence questionnaires supported

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to the questions we hear most.

Ask your own →
Will you break into our systems?
Only the parts we agree to test, safely and with your written approval, so there are no surprises.
Do you explain the findings simply?
Yes, in plain language with a ranked fix list, so you know what to do first.
Do you train staff?
Yes, with short sessions on phishing and safe habits that people actually remember.
Can you check our backups?
Yes, including whether they restore properly, because untested backups are a common weak point.
Do you help with privacy duties?
We flag common obligations and suggest specialist advice where the rules are complex.
Can you help after an incident?
Yes, with review of what happened and recovery planning to stop it happening again.
How do you secure operational systems that cannot be patched quickly?
By isolating them on separate networks, limiting access, monitoring and planning patch windows, since downtime may be costly.
Can you help defence suppliers with security requirements?
We assess against what your customers ask, including the Essential Eight, fix gaps and prepare evidence.
What are the most common attacks on small Hunter businesses?
Phishing messages, stolen or reused passwords, unpatched software and unprotected email accounts. Basic controls such as multi-factor sign-in, regular updates and tested backups stop most of these attacks.
How do you train staff?
With short sessions in plain language and simulated phishing messages, repeated through the year so awareness stays high. We focus on what staff should do when something looks wrong, and make reporting easy.
