The new attack surface

AI has changed what you need to protect

AI tools can reach everything your people can. That turns small security gaps into big problems.

Data oversharing

Copilot shows people files they technically have access to but never should have seen.

Shadow AI

Staff paste customer and company data into AI tools you haven't approved.

Prompt injection

Hidden instructions in emails and documents can hijack your AI apps and agents.

Identity attacks

One stolen login can open up your Azure tenant and everything your AI can reach.

What we do

Security-first Azure expertise

Specialists in securing Microsoft Azure and the AI that runs on it, without the overhead of a large consultancy.

Core focus

AI Security

Get the benefits of AI without leaking your data

We get your Microsoft 365 and Azure environment ready for Copilot, Azure OpenAI and AI agents. That means fixing permissions, labelling sensitive data and setting the guardrails before AI amplifies any gaps. You'll also have the evidence to show your board and customers.

  • AI readiness & risk assessments
  • Copilot oversharing remediation & sensitivity labels
  • Data loss prevention for AI apps & shadow AI
  • Secure Azure OpenAI & AI agent deployments
  • AI usage policy & governance

Cyber Security

Zero Trust for your Azure tenant

We harden your identities, workloads and networks, and get threat detection in place so you know when something's wrong.

  • Essential Eight uplift to Maturity Level Two
  • Entra ID, MFA & conditional access
  • Defender for Cloud posture & remediation
  • Microsoft Sentinel threat monitoring

Secure DevOps & Azure

Automated, consistent and secure by default

Azure DevOps pipelines and well-built Azure infrastructure, with security built in from day one and costs kept in check.

  • CI/CD with security & secret scanning
  • Infrastructure as Code & policy guardrails
  • Azure, hybrid & Hyper-V design
  • Cost & resource optimisation
ASD Essential Eight

Get to Maturity Level Two, and prove it

The Essential Eight is the Australian Signals Directorate's baseline set of eight cyber security mitigation strategies. Maturity Level Two is the minimum for non-corporate Commonwealth entities, and more and more customers, insurers and tenders now ask for it too.

Your maturity level is set by your weakest strategy. Getting there means meeting every requirement across all eight. We get you there using the Microsoft tools you already own.
