Your enterprise clients are pushing Essential Eight requirements down their supply chains.
Westpac, CBA, BHP — and the government contracts and defence primes that sit alongside them — are making Essential Eight maturity a condition of doing business. If a questionnaire or procurement requirement landed on your desk, this is how you meet it.
What's involved
Moving from your current Essential Eight maturity to your target level requires systematic implementation across all eight strategies. This is not a policy overlay — it involves technical control changes, process adjustments, and ongoing verification that the controls are operating as intended.
We work with your MSP to plan and implement the technical controls — application control, patching, macro settings, user application hardening, admin privilege restriction, MFA, and backups — while building the oversight layer that ensures they remain effective and evidenced over time.
The roadmap is staged by strategy and prioritised by risk. We build toward your target maturity level in the sequence that makes the most sense for your environment and timeline, not the consultant's preference.
Deliverables
- Implementation roadmap prioritised by risk and effort
- Technical implementation specifications for each strategy
- MSP coordination and implementation oversight

Business benefits

- Evidence pack that stands up to client, auditor, and government scrutiny
- Systematic risk reduction across the most impactful mitigation strategies
- Clear accountability: oversight with Cybercraft, technical implementation with your MSP
