Treat identity and SaaS platforms as primary attack surfaces. That’s the recommendation from CrowdStrike’s 2026 Global Threat Report.¹ That's not a warning to panic - it's a call to act sensibly. Adversaries are increasingly exploiting vishing, phishing, and stolen OAuth tokens to move laterally through cloud environments. Fortunately, the countermeasures are well-established: • Strengthen phishing-resistant MFA • Enforce least-privilege access for service and non-human accounts • Monitor for anomalous SaaS and token activity None of this is groundbreaking advice. But the organisations that get caught out are usually the ones that knew what to do - and just hadn't done it yet. If you'd like a second set of eyes on your identity security posture, we're always happy to have that conversation. ¹https://lnkd.in/eXj7yGWh #Cybersecurity #AIandIdentitySecurity #CrowdStrike

We had a great time at Digital Health Festival this year, including sitting down with the team at Talking HealthTech to chat about the real challenges facing Australian healthcare IT. Legacy systems, AI, cybersecurity, and what it actually takes to modernise without disrupting care were just a few of the issues top of mind for organisations. Our own Jeroen Nguyen joined Cameron McBride from Western Health and Chris Fisher from Island for an honest conversation recorded live at DHF26. Watch or listen here: https://lnkd.in/gNjKcBry

Seven years in IT security is no small feat - threats evolve, complexity grows, and Nethmina Gamage has navigated all of it with calm, considered expertise. As a Technical Consultant, we’re grateful for the deep technical knowledge he contributes, day in, day out. Outside of work, Neth keeps bees - thousands of moving parts, everything in harmony. Not unlike managing a complex IT environment. Thank you for everything, Neth. Here's to many more milestones ahead!

Attackers aren't breaking in. They're logging in. 82% of breaches now involve valid credentials and legitimate tools, not malware. And as for your old ‘castle-and-moat’ security? It's waving them right through. It's time for a new playbook. Swipe to learn about Zero Trust. https://lnkd.in/g2qXqNTC

Wrestling with a VPN to access patient records is a common frustration for clinicians. For those delivering acute care in the home, seamless access to clinical systems is a necessity. We recently helped a healthcare and social assistance service solve this exact problem for their mobile workforce, enabling Cerner access over IPA360/Desktop without the need for Citrix or VPN. As their project manager noted, this rollout was ‘life-changing’, removing daily friction and paving the way for a fully digital workflow. In their words: "Knowing access is easier and without issues now allows us to further explore moving our hybrid service of paper and digital to hopefully all-digital... You and your team have honestly made this a reality, not a dream." If your organisation relies on legacy remote access tools that hinder your team, it might be time for an upgrade.

AI is changing cybersecurity. That much is obvious. What’s more interesting is how quickly it’s changing the defender’s job. Anthropic’s new Project Glasswing points to a shift many security teams are already feeling: AI is getting very good at finding software vulnerabilities. In some cases, good enough to uncover issues that have survived years of human review and automated testing. That sounds dramatic because, well, it is. But it’s not a cue for panic. It’s a cue for better security practice. For organisations, the message is fairly simple: security can’t be a once-a-quarter activity anymore. If AI helps uncover risk faster, defenders need environments that are: – Visible – Well managed – Consistently patched – Designed to scale That’s especially relevant at the endpoint, where small gaps have a habit of becoming large headaches.
