Why It's a Must to have an Assessment of Business CyberSecurity
Why Assess Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity is a hot topic. And we have seen significant cybersecurity and privacy gaps in organisations that previously had no compliance obligations. This is especially true for small businesses who hold a lot of confidential/personal/financial information or intellectual property (patents).
CyberSecurity for Businesses in NZ vs Australia
Currently, in New Zealand, there are no security compliance obligations by authorities. In Australia, the Federal Government has mandated ISO27001 for any organisation to work with them. This will come down to New Zealand sooner rather than later, so be ready.
In Australia, the last few months have been quite challenging for businesses, with breaches reaching a new high, including the Optus and Medibank breaches.
In New Zealand, breaches have also been touching new highs, e.g., Mercury IT, Pinnacle Health, Air New Zealand, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, Waikato DHB (now a bit old), and the New Zealand Stock Exchange.

SeComPass has been working with organisations in New Zealand, Australia and the US. When talking to small businesses, we felt they didn't have much money to spend on cybersecurity. So SeComPass has specifically created this assessment framework, and as a result, ABC Assessment is a unique way to assess gaps and risks, thus achieving a better level of understanding within days rather than weeks or months, without breaking the bank.
Sign-up Process for ABC assessment
We intake only 5 organisations every 3 months.
Once you are offered a place, we do an initial chat to get to know your specific needs, as we don't take a cookie-cutter approach.
After the initial chat, we complete the ABC Assessment with the top management.
After that, we discuss the assessment results, including the top 5 ways you can reduce the risks.
