About Us
We can make a difference to the security and privacy of the information belonging to Australia's citizens.
- We assess and help improve the information security posture of organisations in the public and private sector.
- We try and change the status quo of application security through disruptive business models.
- We bring new information security services to the Australian market from overseas.
- We act as a security manager, perform security testing, and develop security policy, standards, guidelines, processes and procedures.
- We participate in and help develop associations and projects for security professionals.
Engagement Model
CyberShield Corporate provides technical security leadership in cybersecurity matters through a workforce augmentation approach. You can engage our personnel to act as your in-house security architect or security manager on contract. We engage directly for penetration testing engagements, and have the experience to conduct consulting engagements at a fixed fee.
Our Use of Cloud Technologies
We live in the cloud and use cloud services for all of our business activities in order to break new ground and learn through experience for our clients. Examples include:
- Microsoft 365 for corporate email, word processing and support of our corporate applications
- Software as a Service invoicing
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2 based security testing and test environments
- Azure DevOps for our development and deployment pipelines
Corporate Responsibility
Green
- We only print reports when requested by our clients — encrypted PDF is the preferred method of submission.
- Where we can take public transport in preference to driving, we will.
- We investigate the use of carbon credits to offset emissions from plane travel and driving.
- Our business cards are printed on recycled stock.
Fair Trade
We only supply corporate merchandise and use products which are fair trade. That's pretty fair.
Pro Bono Program
CyberShield Corporate is proud to be available to consult free of charge to charities and educational institutions. Examples of services that we can offer are consultation to schools around Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) to assist with minimising theft and graffiti, and advice to charities on credit card security and compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS).
World Vision Australia
Our principal consultant provided pro bono security consulting to World Vision Australia that assisted their IT team's understanding of the cost and architectural implications of their obligations related to PCI-DSS compliance.
"Matthew Hackling … delivered a high quality piece of work for our PCI-DSS program with the timeliness and detail we had hoped for in order for us to fill a gap in our understanding and internal capability."
