Is your business
actually cyber safe?
CyberChecked helps Australian micro, small and medium businesses understand what is protecting them, what is risky, and what to fix first — without the enterprise audit theatre. Plain English. Real findings. Clear next steps.
For businesses without a dedicated,
up-to-date cyber security plan
We work with Australian businesses that want practical, independent security visibility — not a heavyweight corporate audit that focuses more on governance frameworks and responsibility matrices than actually finding your risks and telling you how to fix them. If nobody in your business owns cyber security, this is for you.
Most breaches come down
to the basics
Many businesses do not need a report full of governance waffle. They need someone to look at what they actually have, how it is configured, what is exposed, and what would hurt if it failed tomorrow.
No multi-factor authentication
The most common entry point for account takeovers. Five minutes to fix. Most small businesses still haven't done it.
Shared or reused passwords
One leaked password gives attackers access to everything if you reuse it across accounts. A password manager solves this completely.
No usable backup
Many businesses think they have a backup — but haven't tested it, it's not covering the right files, or they've mistaken synchronisation for a backup. A backup you can't restore from, or even locate, is no backup at all.
Old access that was never removed
Former staff, old contractors, ex-bookkeepers — still with access to your email, files and accounting system. More common than people realise.
Old hardware still running "because it works"
Most small businesses only replace equipment when it breaks down — leaving obsolete computers, routers and devices running long past the point where the manufacturer stopped issuing security updates. Hardware that "still works fine" but hasn't received a security patch in years is one of the easiest things an attacker can exploit. Out of support doesn't just mean no new features — it means known vulnerabilities that will never be fixed.
These things are fixable
None of this requires a big IT budget. It requires knowing what to fix — which is exactly what we tell you.
A real look at your actual setup
CyberChecked assessments are practical, evidence-based and tailored to the size and complexity of the business — not a checklist or guideline to be ticked off or crossed out.
Core assessment areas
- Business email and account security
- MFA / two-step verification status
- Password practices and reuse
- Computers, tablets and mobile devices

- Accounting, invoicing and payment system access
- myID / ATO / RAM access and awareness
- Router, firewall and remote access basics
- Firmware status and vendor support status
- Domain, DNS and email authentication (where relevant)
- Google Business Profile and social media access
- Older devices, departed staff or lapsed provider access
What you receive
- Plain-English cyber safety report
- Top risks clearly identified and explained
- Good observations — what is already working
- Prioritised action plan: fix now / fix soon / maintain
- Emergency action guidance and contact sheet
- Report walkthrough with your assessor
- Optional quote for remediation or follow-up support
Independent advice. CyberChecked does not sell software, manage your IT systems, or lock you into ongoing contracts. We assess and advise — you decide what to do with it.
This is not a penetration test, legal review, tax or accounting review, cyber insurance policy review, managed IT contract, or a guarantee that every possible risk has been found. It is a practical, independent advisory assessment of your real-world cyber safety setup.
Simple, practical approach
No mystery audit fog. No product pitch dressed up as advice. Just a clear review of what matters, explained in plain English.
Understand the environment
We start with a simple technology snapshot so the assessment is scoped properly before any work begins. You don't need to be technical — "I don't know" is a useful answer.
Review what matters
We check the accounts, devices, access, backups and business systems most likely to create real risk — based on your actual setup, not a generic template.
Prioritise the fixes
You receive a plain-English report showing what to fix first, what can wait, and what is already working. We walk you through it.
- Micro Business Cyber Safety Check
- Small Business Security Assessment
- Independent SMB Security Review
- Cyber insurance readiness support
- Evidence-based findings and action plans
- Optional remediation or retest work by quote
Plain answers before you even ask
Radical stuff, apparently.
What size businesses do you work with?
CyberChecked works with Australian micro, small and medium businesses — generally from sole traders through to organisations of around 50 employees. Larger or more complex environments can be discussed separately.
Do I need to be technical?
No. The whole point is to explain your setup and risks in plain English. If you don't know the answer to something, "I don't know" is genuinely useful — it often tells us something important.
Do you need my passwords?
No. CyberChecked does not ask you to share, email, text or hand over passwords at any point. If a setting needs to be reviewed, you log in yourself while the relevant screen is checked together. Anyone asking for your passwords to perform a security review should be treated with suspicion.
Can you fix the issues you find?
The assessment identifies risks and what to do about them. Remediation work is separate and can be quoted after the report — so the scope and cost stay transparent and you're never surprised.
Is this cyber insurance advice?
No. The report may help you understand the security controls that insurers commonly ask about, and it's worth sharing with your broker at renewal. But CyberChecked does not interpret insurance policies or guarantee insurer acceptance of any claims.
Is this a penetration test?
No. This is a practical cyber safety assessment focused on real-world risks that affect small businesses — account access, backups, devices, email, remote access and human factors.
How is this different from calling an IT support company?
Most IT support companies will happily sell and set up your IT equipment and networks, and prepare basic secure access as part of that process if it's scoped. But unless you're paying for ongoing managed support, they won't continually scan for security vulnerabilities or remediate the issues that are found. They won't update hardware firmware, patch your systems and software, or monitor for new threats. IT environments that only see IT support when something breaks — aren't secure.
Let's have a look at
what you've got
Tell us a little about your business and what you want reviewed. We'll respond within one business day. No obligation, no sales pitch — just a straight conversation about whether an assessment makes sense for your situation.
