Security Services for Melbourne Businesses

Website Penetration Testing for Melbourne Businesses

Whether you run an e-commerce store in Richmond, a SaaS platform in South Melbourne, or a professional services website in the CBD — your web application needs security testing. We perform full OWASP Top 10 penetration testing tailored to your technology stack, with findings contextualised for Australian data protection requirements. Melbourne businesses handling customer data, payment information, or health records face particularly stringent obligations under the Privacy Act and the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme. Our $500 website audit helps you meet those obligations proactively.

Email Security for Melbourne Organisations

Business Email Compromise is the fastest-growing cyber threat in Melbourne. The ACSC reported that Victorian businesses lost over $40 million to BEC attacks in 2025 alone — with legal practices, real estate agencies, and accounting firms being the most common targets. Our $300 email security audit tests your SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configuration, simulates domain spoofing attacks, and assesses your phishing resilience. For Melbourne professional services firms where trust is everything, email impersonation can be devastating.

Network Security for Melbourne Offices

Melbourne businesses operating from commercial premises — Docklands, Southbank, St Kilda Road, or suburban office parks — typically have internet-facing infrastructure that needs assessment. Our $400 network perimeter scan identifies exposed services, tests firewall configurations, and checks remote access security (particularly important for Melbourne organisations with hybrid workforces commuting between office and home). We scan all 65,535 TCP ports plus common UDP services across your external IP addresses.

Full Business Assessment for Melbourne Companies

Our comprehensive $1,200 package is designed for Melbourne businesses that want a complete security baseline — covering website, email, network, and policy in a single coordinated assessment. This is particularly popular with Melbourne organisations preparing for regulatory audits, cyber insurance renewals, or enterprise client due diligence requirements. Many Melbourne businesses in our client base transitioned to this package after a single-domain audit revealed cross-domain risks they had not considered.

Australian Compliance-Aligned Reporting

Our reports are specifically formatted for Australian compliance requirements. For APRA-regulated Melbourne financial services firms, findings map to CPS 234 controls. For government contractors operating from Melbourne, we align to the Essential Eight maturity model. For organisations handling personal information, we assess compliance with the Australian Privacy Principles and Notifiable Data Breaches scheme. This means your compliance team receives findings in a format they can immediately use — no translation from US-centric frameworks required.

Melbourne-Specific Threat Intelligence

We track threats targeting Melbourne industries — the construction firms in the western suburbs being hit with ransomware through compromised project management portals, the South Melbourne SaaS companies targeted by credential stuffing, the CBD legal practices receiving sophisticated BEC attacks referencing real property transactions. Our testing incorporates threat intelligence relevant to your Melbourne industry vertical, ensuring we test for the attacks most likely to target your specific business.
