vCISO.One has launched a Cybersecurity Compliance Assessment service to help SMBs, councils, and not-for-profits align with frameworks like ISO 27001, Essential Eight, and ISM. The service includes gap analysis, roadmap planning, and board-ready reporting to simplify compliance and boost security posture.
-- Leading Australian cybersecurity consultancy vCISO.One has officially launched its Cybersecurity Compliance Assessment service, designed to help local councils, small and mid-sized businesses, not-for-profits, and regulated entities navigate complex security requirements with confidence and clarity.
With cyber threats growing in sophistication and compliance obligations increasing across industries, many organisations struggle to know where to begin or how to demonstrate security maturity to partners, regulators, and insurers. vCISO.One’s new offering aims to simplify this journey by providing a practical, framework-aligned assessment tailored to each client’s sector, size, and resources.
“Cybersecurity compliance doesn’t have to be overwhelming,” said Andrew Egoroff, founder and principal consultant at vCISO.One. “Our new service cuts through the jargon, shows you exactly where you stand, and gives you a realistic roadmap to move forward — whether you’re aiming for ISO 27001 certification, meeting Essential Eight requirements, or just trying to get cyber insurance.”
Key Features of the Service Include:
- A guided kickoff session to identify the most relevant frameworks
- A detailed controls-based assessment mapped to frameworks such as Essential Eight, ISO/IEC 27001, the ACSC ISM, NIST CSF, PCI-DSS, the SoCI Act, or SMB1001
- Gap analysis with traffic-light scoring for executive clarity
- A customised 3-12 month compliance roadmap
- Optional evidence mapping for audits or certifications
- A board-ready executive summary designed to communicate progress to leadership or funding bodies
The service is particularly well-suited to:
- Local Councils, where alignment to the Essential Eight and ISM is increasingly tied to grant eligibility and audit readiness
- SMBs, who need a cost-effective way to support vendor due diligence, tenders, or cyber insurance renewals
- Not-for-Profits, who face increasing scrutiny around privacy and governance from government and donors
- Health and Education providers, seeking alignment with sector-specific data protection requirements
- Defence Contractors, who need CMMC-style reviews in preparation for Department of Defence engagement
“vCISO.One helped us understand exactly what the Essential Eight meant for us — and what to prioritise,” said a Corporate Services Manager from a regional council. “Their report was board-ready, action-focused, and easy to follow.”
When to Engage the Service:
- Before pursuing ISO 27001 certification
- When preparing for cyber insurance or vendor risk questionnaires
- During cyber uplift projects or risk planning exercises
- Ahead of audits or sector-wide compliance initiatives
Optional add-ons include policy and procedure development, GRC platform integration, staff training aligned to compliance controls, and ongoing refreshes to monitor progress.
A free discovery call is available for any organisation wanting to explore their current posture and next steps.
