Cyber security services in Perth built for one purpose - a secure, framework-aligned foundation that holds up under audit. Cyber security consulting starts with where your business sits today, your systems, your compliance obligations and your client data.
From there, cyber security solutions bring email protection, identity monitoring, endpoint protection and 24/7 security oversight together under one foundation, rather than a set of separate tools bolted on over time. That includes proper alignment to the Essential Eight framework, the benchmark your industry is already measured against.
The Essential Eight is the Australian Signals Directorate’s recommended cyber security baseline, covering eight key areas including patching, multi-factor authentication, access privileges, application control, macro restrictions, application hardening and backups.
Our Essential Eight assessment establishes your current maturity, identifies an appropriate target level and provides a prioritised remediation plan across all eight strategies.
This gives you a practical roadmap for strengthening your cyber security.
Some of the 8 controls may already be in place, but important weaknesses remain.
Controls address relatively basic attacks using common tools and techniques. Meeting the level requires the applicable requirements to be implemented and assessed.
Controls address more capable attackers who use additional techniques to bypass protections. For finance and wealth management industries, this is where your security obligations sit.
Controls address more adaptive attackers and advanced techniques. This is the level of risk reduction expected of banks, large corporations and businesses handling high volumes of sensitive data.
Learn more about the requirements in the official ASD Essential Eight Maturity Model.

Managed IT, Cyber Security and Advisory, working as one rather than three separate line items. Here's exactly how, and where compliance fits into each part.
Includes:
During the initial consultation, we will discuss your business environment, potential vulnerabilities, and define your specific cyber security needs. Upon sign-off, we will conduct an in-depth assessment.
The assessment shapes a customised strategy and scope aligned to your business objectives and risk tolerance, outlining exactly what's needed to safeguard your operations.
Recommended security measures get implemented alongside your existing systems, integrating the technologies and protocols that fortify your defences.
Continuous monitoring, regular updates and infrastructure checks keep your business protected against emerging threats.
Our Cyber Security Process begins with a thorough consultation to understand your unique needs. We will conduct a comprehensive risk assessment, and implement tailored security measures.
Our ongoing support includes continuous monitoring, regular updates, and 24/7 incident response, ensuring your business remains secure.
Protecting business data is imperative in today’s marketplace. Inspired IT helps secure client data from current and future attacks through tactics such as:
Speed and precision are critical during a security breach. Minimising downtime and safeguarding your assets depends on how effectively you react. Our comprehensive Cyber Security Response will guide your organisation seamlessly through an attack.
We provide continuous real-time monitoring of your IT environment to detect potential threats. Utilising advanced security tools and analytics, we keep a vigilant eye on network traffic, user behaviour, and system vulnerabilities. This proactive approach allows us to identify suspicious activities before they escalate into serious incidents.
In the event of a detected threat, our team acts swiftly to contain the incident. We deploy immediate incident containment strategies to limit damage and protect your sensitive data. This may involve isolating affected systems, blocking malicious traffic, or applying patches to vulnerabilities. Our expert response team follows established protocols to minimise disruption to your business operations.
After neutralising the threat, we focus on restoring normal operations. Our detailed recovery plans are tailored to your business’s needs, ensuring a swift return to functionality. This includes data recovery and system restorations, along with recommendations for enhancing your security posture to prevent future incidents.
Since 2016, Inspired IT has been helping Perth businesses use technology with greater confidence, and cyber security is a critical part of that responsibility. With decades of IT industry experience behind the team, we understand that protecting a business takes more than installing security tools. It requires the right technology, strong processes and ongoing attention as risks evolve. That’s why we take a proactive, practical approach to cyber security, helping businesses strengthen their defences, understand their risks and make informed decisions about protecting their people, systems and data.
Achieving ISO 27001 certification involves more than policies and documentation. Your technology environment also needs to support the security controls and risk management practices your organisation puts in place.
Inspired IT can help with the technical components of your ISO 27001 journey, from strengthening access controls and security configurations to improving monitoring, patching, backups and other technology safeguards required within your environment.
While we don’t complete the certification process itself, as an ISO 27001 certified business ourselves, we understand the technical preparation and ongoing discipline involved in maintaining an ISO-aligned environment. We can work alongside your internal team, ISO consultant or certification partner to help ensure your technology supports the broader work towards certification.
A single point of contact who knows your business and your compliance obligations, not a new technician each time.
Local support that grows with you, so you’re never handed off to an overseas call centre when something goes wrong.
Your team gets the support they need without feeling swamped by every technology change.
Managed IT services that free up your time and your budget, so you can focus on running your business, not fixing it.

No. The Essential Eight is a set of cyber risk mitigation strategies. An assessment can identify security gaps and help plan improvements, but it does not establish compliance with every law, contract or industry requirement. Applicable obligations depend on your organisation and the information it handles.
Phishing, ransomware, malware, insider threats and DDoS attacks are the threats most likely to reach an Australian SMB.
Each threat calls for a different layer of protection, which is why cyber security services are built around several controls working together, not one single tool.
Data protection and compliance are built on the Essential Eight maturity model, the NIST framework and the Privacy Act 1988, applied together rather than as separate checkboxes.
Together, these give your business a compliance position that holds up under audit, not just a policy document that says it does.
A multi-layered approach protects sensitive information from several directions at once, rather than relying on a single point of defence.
Combined, these layers protect the integrity and confidentiality of your business’s data from multiple angles at once.
Cyber security services in Perth from Inspired IT centre on Essential Eight alignment, managed detection and response, and ongoing compliance support, delivered locally with on-site support when it’s needed.
Perth businesses face the same threats as anywhere else, but a locally based provider means faster response when something goes wrong, and a better understanding of the industry mix across WA, from finance and wealth management through to construction and engineering.
The right cyber security solutions provider covers more ground than a single tool or service.
Checking a provider against these four points is a faster way to compare options than reading a features list.
