The Challenge

Understanding the Wheatbelt Challenge

Like many SMBs, WBN members are increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats. Given their limited knowledge and resources, they often rely on fragmented, ad-hoc approaches to cyber security. Budgetary constraints and a lack of in-house expertise, further exacerbate their vulnerability.

WBN recognised the need to equip their members with the knowledge to defend their businesses. The organisation found a way to bridge the gap and empower their members with actionable cyber security strategies and training.
