The Essential Eight is the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s baseline for defending against cyber threats — and increasingly, it’s what your clients, insurers, and partners expect to see.
The framework defines three maturity levels:
Maturity Level 1 — baseline protection against opportunistic attacks
Maturity Level 2 — defence against more targeted, capable adversaries
Maturity Level 3 — resilience against sophisticated threats and techniques
But navigating the eight strategies and reaching your target maturity can feel overwhelming without a dedicated security team. CyberNow cuts through the complexity. We assess where you are, identify the gaps that matter most, and help you implement controls that genuinely reduce your risk — not just on paper.
Whether you’re working towards ML1 or pushing for ML3, we’ll get you there without the jargon or the bloat.
