Supporting Australia’s small businesses with accessible, affordable, and achievable cyber resilience education.

Navigating the digital world as a small business owner can be challenging, especially when it comes to cyber security.

"Our experience with CUSP has been great. As a small for-purpose organisation, without dedicated cybersecurity resourcing, CUSP provides us with a cost-effective solution to provide training and awareness across the business on cyber risks. The program's comprehensive approach ensures that Siblings Australia is equipped to address this critical business area within our organisational capacity."

Small Business Cyber Toolkit

The Australian Cyber Collaboration Centre and the Global Cyber Alliance (GCA) have collaborated to provide a free cyber security online toolkit that is available to small businesses across Australia.

“Addressing cybersecurity is not something that can be addressed in isolation. Partnering with like-minded organisations such as the Australian Cyber Collaboration Centre is important if we are to stem the increasing tide of ransomware and cyber criminality. ”

- Terry Wilson, GCA Global Partnership Officer

The Small Business Toolkit has been developed to ensure it aligns with the security messaging for small businesses put out by the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC). The toolkit guides small businesses through six steps, each of which includes free tools, videos, recommendations, training materials, and guidance to help you on your journey to better cyber safety. As part of the toolkit you will also have access to seven free mini-courses and a community forum to support implementation.
