Information Security Governance & Advisory

Services

I provide pragmatic information security advisory services for government and highly regulated organisations. Engagements are risk-based, outcome-focused, and aligned with recognised standards and whole-of-government frameworks.

Information Security Governance & ISMS

Design, uplift, and operationalisation of Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 and government requirements.

Typical outcomes include reduced audit findings, clearer accountability, and security controls that are embedded into operational practice rather than existing solely as documentation.

Essential Eight & Control Maturity

Independent assessment and uplift planning for Essential Eight and related control frameworks, with a focus on practical and sustainable maturity improvement.

This service is suited to organisations seeking to move beyond compliance checklists toward demonstrable and repeatable control effectiveness.

Security Architecture & Risk Advisory

Security-focused solution architecture and risk advisory services to support new initiatives, cloud adoption, and system changes within regulated environments.

Engagements emphasise enabling delivery while ensuring risks are understood, documented, and treated proportionately.

Vulnerability & Assurance Programs

Design and uplift of vulnerability management and security assurance operating models aligned with organisational risk appetite and capacity.

The focus is on moving from reactive remediation to predictable, risk-informed vulnerability treatment.
