Are you Cyber Safe?

We’ve all seen the headlines where another company is hit by a data breach, with sensitive client information ending up on the dark web. Recent examples include Qantas and Gmail. And while most of us aren’t exactly sure what the dark web is (spoiler: typing www.darkweb.com.au won’t get you there!), we do know it’s somewhere we don’t want our client’s data to appear.

As a small business that gathers a lot of personal information from your clients, protecting that data isn’t just important - it’s essential. There are many tools and systems out there to help, but your strongest defence is your team. They’re the frontline when it comes to preventing data breaches, and keeping them informed and trained is key.

The good news? The Australian Government has launched a free, easy-to-access online training programme for small businesses called Cyber Wardens. It’s designed to help your team understand cyber risks and how to respond to them, with several course levels to suit different needs.

So, if you’re a small business owner, don’t let a breach be your wake-up call.
Get your team trained, stay ahead of the risks, and make cyber safety part of your everyday operations.
