Our Essential 8 Compliance Services

The Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) recommends the Essential Eight Strategies, which are essential for reducing cyberattacks, stopping malware transmission, and facilitating recovery. At BIZ-LYNX Technology, we understand that every business has different cybersecurity requirements. Our Essential 8 Compliance Services are designed to meet your unique needs and obstacles. We provide all-inclusive solutions in all key domains, such as:

application-whitelisting

Application Whitelisting

Application whitelisting restricts system access to only approved applications, vetted by IT administrators. This measure aims to foil ransomware, malware, and other cyber threats propagated through unauthorised applications.

patch-applications

Patch Applications

Security vulnerabilities inherent in applications can facilitate malicious software execution. Promptly patching or mitigating extreme-risk vulnerabilities within 48 hours, and employing the latest application versions, is essential to thwarting potential cyber threats.

user-application-hardening

User Application Hardening

Harden web browsers to block Flash, ads, and Java, which are common vectors for malicious code execution. Additionally, disable unnecessary features in Microsoft Office, web browsers, and PDF viewers to reduce vulnerability exposure.

configure-microsoft-office

Configure Microsoft Office

Configuration of Microsoft Office macro settings to block internet macros and permit only vetted macros from trusted sources is crucial. Macros, while useful for task automation, can harbour malicious code, leading to unauthorised access in targeted cyber-attacks.

restrict-administrative-privileges

Restrict Administrative Privileges

Limiting administrative privileges to essential user duties and periodic privilege validation are paramount. Avoiding the use of privileged accounts for routine tasks like email and web browsing significantly enhances system security, as attackers often exploit these accounts for comprehensive system access.

multi-factor-authentication

Multi-Factor Authentication

Implementing multi-factor authentication across VPNs, RDP, SSH, and other remote access points, as well as for all privileged actions or access to sensitive data, significantly mitigates credential theft risks. When properly deployed, multi-factor authentication enhances network security by impeding malicious activities.

patch-operating-systems

Patch Operating Systems

Timely patching or mitigating extreme-risk vulnerabilities in operating systems, including network devices, within 48 hours is crucial. Utilising the latest supported operating system versions is imperative to minimise security risks associated with unsupported versions.

regular-backups

Regular Backups

Regular backups of crucial data, software, and configuration settings, stored offline for at least three months, are indispensable. Regular testing of restoration procedures, initially, annually, and following IT infrastructure changes, ensures data accessibility following cyber security incidents like ransomware attacks.
