The Essential Eight Maturity Model: Why Does it Matter?
The Essential Eight Maturity Model is a comprehensive cybersecurity framework developed by the Australian Government’s Cyber Security Centre (ACSC), designed to help organisations, including small businesses, improve their security posture, this model outlines eight essential mitigation strategies that can greatly reduce the risk of cyber threats.
By implementing and maintaining the controls within this framework, your business can protect its data, operations, and reputation, making your business more resilient to cyber threats in the modern digital landscape. Read more about the maturity levels here.
Essential Eight Controls:
- Controlling Applications
- Patching Applications
- Configure Microsoft Office Macro Settings
- User Application Hardening
- Restricting Administrative Privileges
- Patching Operating Systems
- Multi-factor Authentication
- Regular Backups
At Aus Advantage, we take things one step further, by layering best breed technologies and management solutions to enhance the Essential Eight framework, and provide small and medium businesses with an effective way to achieve alignment.
All our managed IT service plans are designed to help businesses begin aligning themselves to their desired maturity level and maintain those standards once aligned.
