In a short, focused engagement, you gain clarity on what matters most.

Framework obligations often become scattered across policies, tools, audits and spreadsheets. Praxis Cyber brings them back into one view: current maturity, exposed gaps, evidence quality and the uplift path your team can realistically maintain.

Gain actionable insights

You receive a pragmatic assessment pack: control scorecard, risk-ranked findings, evidence register and a roadmap that leaders, IT teams and auditors can all understand.

Accelerated ACSC alignment

Build confidence against the Essential Eight without turning the work into a paperwork exercise.

Identify gaps before risk grows

Find where exposure, missing controls or weak evidence could become an issue.

Maximise existing tools

Use Microsoft 365, cloud and identity platforms more effectively before buying more tooling.

Uplift roadmap and support

Prioritise improvements with owners, effort, impact and optional hands-on remediation support.

Assessment accelerators

Use one service lane, then switch on the right assessment modules.

Rather than adding every assessment as a separate top-level service, these modules sit under Framework Alignment and connect into Cyber Risk Assessments, Microsoft 365 uplift, Access Controls and DLP, and Customer & Audit Evidence where needed.

Essential Eight assessment

Baseline maturity against the ACSC mitigation strategies, identify priority gaps and produce a clear uplift plan.

Core framework

NIST CSF and Zero Trust maturity

Map Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover, with Zero Trust principles where identity and access need focus.

Operating model

ASD ISM alignment review

Translate ISM control expectations into policies, owners, evidence and practical system-level improvement actions.

Control mapping

Microsoft 365 security assessment

Review Entra, Purview, Defender, Secure Score and tenant configuration for fast security-control uplift.

Platform uplift

Microsoft 365 Copilot readiness

Check sensitive data locations, permissions, sharing posture and Purview controls before Copilot expands reach.

AI data readiness

Cloud security assessment

Assess identity, logging, exposed services, unused features and misconfiguration across Azure, AWS or Google Cloud.

Cloud baseline

OT cyber security assessment

Review operational technology exposure, segmentation, asset visibility and safety or compliance-driven risk priorities.

Operational environments

Customer and audit evidence pack

Package results into executive, customer and auditor-ready evidence so security maturity is easy to explain.

Assurance output

Consolidate the offer without hiding the detail.

The buyer sees one clear framework-alignment service. The delivery team can still tailor the module set to the client’s environment.

Core frameworks

Essential Eight, NIST CSF and ASD ISM remain the primary page promise.

Platform assessments

Microsoft 365, Copilot and cloud feed into control uplift and DLP services.

Evidence and remediation

Audit packs, executive reporting and hands-on uplift connect the assessment to action.

Our approach

Our approach

Our approach

01

Discover and scope

Confirm business drivers, systems, stakeholders, frameworks, existing evidence and the assessment modules that actually matter.

02

Assess controls

Review maturity, configuration, identity, data protection, cloud posture, OT exposure and operational control ownership.

03

Review evidence

Validate the proof behind policies, settings and processes so findings are defensible for customers, auditors and executives.

04

Report, prioritise and uplift

Deliver a practical scorecard, risk-ranked roadmap and optional remediation support to move from assessment to improvement.
