Emantra, a Brisbane-based managed security services provider, has launched a cybersecurity compliance offering aimed at Smaller government agencies.
CyberStart aims to help agencies comply with national cybersecurity standards and achieve goals Imantra said the Department of Home Affairs' Australian Cyber Security Strategy 2023-2030.
The solution aims to address the unique challenges faced by small government agencies that may lack the resources and expertise to address sophisticated cyber threats.
The Home Office has certified Emantra's capabilities to the highest levels under the Hosting Certification Framework for the provision of government cloud services.
“Small agencies play a critical role in our national infrastructure, but face disproportionate cybersecurity challenges,” said Ross Dewar, CEO of Emantra.
“With CyberStart, we're leveling the playing field. Our product not only simplifies the path to compliance, but also provides a robust cybersecurity framework that is affordable and easy to implement.”
CyberStart offers two levels of service. The first tier provides basic cybersecurity services designed for agencies with minimal existing infrastructure or expertise, while the second tier offers enhanced cybersecurity tools and strategies.
CyberStart combines automated cyber tools with 24/7 Australian Security Operations Center support.
“By equipping agencies with CyberStart, we are not only helping them meet regulatory requirements, we are enabling them to contribute to Australia’s reputation as a global leader in cybersecurity by 2030,” Dewar said.
“CyberStart democratizes access to the latest cybersecurity technology and expert support, enabling these agencies to not only meet basic compliance requirements but also advance toward becoming part of the nation's secure digital landscape.”
Emantra's CyberStart is available directly through the company and is currently uploaded to government procurement boards such as BuyICT and LocalBuy.
