Australian businesses are facing more security risks than ever. In FY 2023-24 alone, the Australian Signals Directorate logged 87,400 cybercrime reports — about one every six minutes — and found the average cost per incident rising sharply.
For many SMEs, it doesn't take much: one stolen credential, unprotected endpoint, or misconfigured setting can trigger serious disruption. Geeks on Tap helps you secure Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 with expert setup, ongoing monitoring, and responsive remediation — before and after incidents occur.
- Close Every Gap with Confidence — Multi-layered security across Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 leaves no easy entry points.
- Stop Attacks Before They Spread — MFA, advanced email filtering, and hardened platform configurations block threats at the source.
- Bounce Back Fast with Local Incident Response — Our Australia-based team is ready to jump in when breaches occur, minimising damage and downtime.
Multi-Layered Security That Covers Every Entry Point
Cybercriminals test every possible way into your business. Weak passwords, phishing emails, or unsecured devices can all be exploited. Geeks on Tap's cybersecurity services in Australia build cyber resilience with a multi-layered defence — combining Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 security controls, endpoint management, and proactive monitoring into one cohesive protection strategy.
5 Cybersecurity Features That Stop Attacks Before They Start
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA/2FA)
Passwords can be guessed or stolen. MFA adds a second step — a code sent to your phone or an app approval — so even if someone has your password, they still can't get in. This is one of the simplest, most powerful ways to block unauthorised access.
Advanced Email Security
Most hackers get in through email. We set up filters that scan every message for fake links, suspicious attachments, and impersonators — so dangerous emails get blocked before your team ever sees them.
Secure Platform Configuration
Default settings in Google Workspace management and Microsoft 365 often leave gaps — overly broad access, weak file-sharing rules, or old user accounts. We do a full check and reconfigure your setup to security best practices. See our guide on Google Workspace vs Microsoft 365 to understand which platform fits your needs.
Endpoint Management & Security
Laptops, tablets, and phones are often the easiest targets. We manage all connected devices using Microsoft Intune or Google Endpoint so only safe, approved devices can access your systems. Unknown devices get blocked automatically.
Proactive Monitoring & Security Auditing
Cyber threats don't always come with warning signs. Our team reviews alerts and activity logs daily to catch anything unusual — logins from strange locations, bulk file downloads, or permission changes. We act early before problems spread. Discover how Geeks on Tap delivers tailored managed IT for small businesses with managed IT support pricing that gives you enterprise-grade protection.
Expert Incident Response: Contain Threats Fast When Breaches Happen
Even with the best protection, some threats still manage to sneak past. What really matters is how fast you can catch it, stop it, and recover from it. The moment something looks suspicious, Geeks on Tap jumps into action — checking what happened, locking down any risks, and getting your systems back to normal as quickly as possible.
No panic. No second-guessing. Just a calm, experienced team right here in Australia, ready to help you bounce back quickly and keep your business moving.
How Rocket Agency Strengthened Its Security with Geeks on Tap
Challenge: High-Risk Security Gaps Across a Multi-Location Agency
Rocket Agency is an award-winning digital marketing firm of more than 50 staff, with teams in Sydney, Melbourne, and Malaysia. During onboarding with Geeks on Tap, an initial security review uncovered multiple gaps — particularly for offshore staff working in higher-risk environments.
Solution: Comprehensive Google Workspace Security Assessment
Geeks on Tap carried out a detailed Google Workspace Security Assessment using automation and over ten years of experience. Key actions included:
- Automated Security Data Analysis — Custom-built tools made it cost-effective to process and prioritise large volumes of security data.
- Phish Threat Campaigns — Partnered with Sophos to simulate phishing attempts and improve user awareness.
- Configuration Remediation — Closed gaps in Google Workspace settings and enforced industry best practices.
- Third-Party App Clean-Up — Identified and removed high-risk apps to reduce supply chain vulnerabilities.
- Ongoing Staff Awareness — Introduced regular campaigns to keep security risks top of mind for employees.
Result: Ongoing Cyber Resilience and Measurable Risk Reduction
- 80% reduction in high-risk third-party app usage, significantly lowering supply chain exposure.
- 60% improvement in phishing resilience after Sophos phish threat campaigns reduced click-through rates.
- 100% enforcement of MFA/2FA across all staff, closing one of the biggest security gaps.
- Annual assessments adopted as standard practice to stay ahead of evolving threats.
- Enhanced confidence to safeguard sensitive client data, including access to banking and corporate platforms.
"Just having a firewall and antivirus is not enough. We now do a Geeks on Tap Security Assessment and Sophos phish threat campaigns annually — and the results speak for themselves."
