Onsite help across Greater Brisbane when a security incident is critical.
Onsite for critical issues
Typical incident response time, business hours
Monitoring of devices and sign-ins
Owners’ IT experience, each
Watched from anywhere, fixed in person when needed
Monitoring and patching run remotely. When something is flagged we isolate the device or lock the account from our end, and most issues are fixed in under 30 minutes once a tech connects.
Some jobs can’t be done through a screen: rebuilding a laptop, replacing a firewall, or checking every PC after a ransomware scare. For critical issues we send a technician onsite across Greater Brisbane the same day.
Round-the-clock monitoring
Device alerts and Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace sign-ins, monitored 24/7, with alerts escalated to our team.
Contained from our end
An infected device cut off or a hijacked account blocked, without waiting for anyone to drive over.
Same day when critical
A technician at your premises the same day when a system is down or an incident is live.
Planned visits
Firewall changes, new devices and security reviews, booked around your office hours.

How exposed is your Brisbane office?
Start with a free cyber security assessment: a plain-English report on your accounts, email and computers, with the fixes ranked. Valued at $2,500, no obligation.
If you think you've been hacked
Call us before anyone deletes emails or restarts equipment.
Call us straight away
Tell us what you are seeing. Security incidents are treated as critical, typically with a response within one hour during business hours.
Contain it
We lock compromised accounts and cut affected devices off the network, remotely first, with a technician onsite the same day if needed.
Work out what happened
Sign-in logs, mailbox rules and device alerts show how they got in, such as a hidden forwarding rule copying your invoices to an outsider.
Recover
We clean or rebuild affected devices and restore files from backup before your team logs back in.
Report and close the gap
A plain-English account of what happened, help deciding whether the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme applies, and the weakness fixed.
Brisbane firms that hold sensitive data
Our Brisbane security clients typically have 5 to 100 staff and no in-house security person. Many work in healthcare, legal, accounting and finance or construction, where one hijacked mailbox can expose client records or redirect a large payment.
A common attack is email compromise: someone gets into a mailbox, watches quietly, then changes the bank details on a genuine invoice. ASD’s Annual Cyber Threat Report 2024-25 lists email compromise (19%) and business email compromise fraud (15%) as the top two cybercrimes reported by businesses.
Want IT support too?
Security is built into our managed IT services in Brisbane, so one team handles support and protection.
Outside Brisbane?
The same onsite cover applies in Ipswich, on the Gold Coast and on the Sunshine Coast. Elsewhere in Australia we work remotely and arrange visits when a job needs one.
5 stars to Michael & Jason at SEQ IT, always happy to help me, from helping us with an IT project to smaller computer problems. We absolutely recommend them if you are a small business.

Cyber security in Brisbane: your questions
Do you offer onsite cyber security support in Brisbane?
Yes. Our Australian-based team covers Greater Brisbane. For critical issues, such as a live security incident or a system that is down, a technician can be onsite the same day. Monitoring and most fixes happen remotely, so help starts before anyone travels.
How fast do you respond to a cyber attack in Brisbane?
Security incidents are treated as critical, and during business hours we typically respond within one hour. After-hours cover is available by arrangement. We start containing the problem remotely straight away, by locking accounts or isolating devices, and send a technician to your premises the same day if hands-on work is needed.
Does a cyber security provider need to be close to my office?
Not for monitoring, which works from anywhere. It matters when an incident needs hands-on work, like rebuilding devices after ransomware. Our team is based in South East Queensland, so Brisbane clients get same-day onsite help for critical issues.
How much does cyber security cost for a Brisbane small business?
It depends on your users, devices and what is already in place. Security is built into both our plans: Core IT Security is $125 to $155 per user per month, with support billed as you use it, and Fully Managed IT is $220 to $295 including support. You get a fixed monthly price with no lock-in contract.
What should I do if a staff member clicked a phishing link?
Call us on 1300 619 750 and stop them using the account. If they entered a password, it needs changing and every session signing out. We check for new forwarding rules and odd sign-ins, scan the device and tell you what was accessed.
Do Brisbane businesses need the Essential Eight or SMB1001?
Neither is a legal requirement for most private businesses, but insurers, clients and tender panels ask about both. Many small businesses begin at Essential Eight Maturity Level 0 or 1, and we help you reach Level 1 or 2. SMB1001 adds a certificate, and we take clients through Bronze, Silver and Gold.
