Brisbane accounting firm: 40 staff, Essential 8 compliance

A 40-staff Brisbane accounting firm was running a patchwork of systems accumulated over 15 years. Multiple overlapping software licences, no MFA on client-facing systems, poor backup practices, and no formal IT security policy left them significantly exposed.

Following a near-miss BEC attack that almost redirected a $240,000 client payment, they engaged us for a full IT overhaul. We implemented Essential 8 controls, rationalised software licences, and deployed modern email security — delivering both compliance and cost savings.

Essential 8 Maturity Level 1 in 6 weeks
40% IT cost reduction through licence rationalisation
MFA deployed across all staff and client systems
BEC protection blocking 200+ threats/month
AFSL IT compliance documentation completed

After our BEC near-miss we knew we had to take security seriously. Renot IT didn't just fix the immediate problem — they gave us a proper security framework. The Essential 8 compliance has also helped us win several new corporate clients who require it as a condition of engagement.
