# Cyber Security & Compliance > Protect your business with layered security, from security assessments and identity protection to Microsoft Defender endpoint security and policies that support your compliance obligations.

Good security comes from layers: protected devices, filtered email, strong sign-in, tested backups and people who know what to look out for. We start with a security assessment, put those layers in place, keep them maintained and improving, and help you meet the obligations that apply to your business.

Are we really a target? Yes. Many attacks are automated and aimed at anyone with weak defences, regardless of size. The good news is that a few well-chosen protections stop most of them. ### Can you help with the Essential Eight? Yes. We can review where you stand against the Essential Eight strategies and help you put a practical plan in place to improve. ### Do you use Microsoft Defender? Where your Microsoft 365 licences include it, Defender is often a cost-effective way to protect computers, email and identities, and we configure and monitor it. If another tool suits your business better, we'll say so. ### Where should we start? A cybersecurity assessment is usually the best first step. It shows your biggest risks and gives you a prioritised plan, so you invest where it matters most. ## Good first step - [Cybersecurity Assessment](https://itechnologyaustralia.com.au/assessments/cybersecurity-assessment.md): Understand your real exposure to cyber threats across people, devices, networks and data, and know exactly where to invest first. --- iTechnology Australia: call 1300 803 757, email info@itechnologyaustralia.com.au, or send an enquiry or book a discovery call at https://itechnologyaustralia.com.au/contact-us.
