SMB1001

Your business has no certified cyber security framework.

Most small businesses do some security basics: passwords, antivirus, maybe backups. Doing a few things is not the same as having a framework. Without one, you cannot prove your security posture to clients, insurers, or regulators. And you probably have gaps you do not know about.

SMB1001 certification changes that. It gives your business a structured, recognised standard built specifically for businesses your size. No enterprise complexity, just practical protection.

Earn cyber security certification built for small businesses.

SMB1001 compliance gives your business something tangible: a recognised cyber security certification that demonstrates you take security seriously. It opens doors to enterprise clients, satisfies cyber insurance requirements, and gives your staff a clear security baseline to work within.

The SMB1001 framework is tiered, so you can achieve a level of certification that matches your current risk profile and grow from there. SMB1001 implementation with Elscomm means you are not navigating the framework alone. We assess your current controls, identify what needs to change, and implement the required improvements. You come out the other side ready for certification, not just holding a checklist.

What is the SMB1001 cyber security framework?

SMB1001 is a cyber security framework designed specifically for small and medium-sized businesses. Unlike larger frameworks built for enterprise environments, SMB1001 is practical, tiered, and achievable for businesses with limited IT resources. It covers the controls that matter most: access control, patch management, backups, incident response, and more.

The framework has multiple certification levels. Businesses start at the level that suits their current maturity and risk appetite, then progress. SMB1001 certification is recognised across Australian industry as a meaningful signal of cyber security maturity for SMBs. It is not just a compliance exercise. It is a foundation for ongoing security improvement.
