BizGuard

Martin von Stein recently appeared on the Better Business podcast with Alexei Kouleshov and talked about #Cybersecurity, #CrowdStrike and why the traditional IT model no longer works for Small Business. Check it out ??

So today BizGuard officially turned 1. After finishing up in my previous business, 18th of March 2024 was my first day working full time in BizGuard. Reflecting on the past year, we have: - Protected over 50 clients against Cyber threats - Supported another 20-odd clients with various IT issues - Educated hundreds of business owners - Progressed our mission to make Australia cyber-safe one small business at a time - Aaaaaand hot off the press: last week we moved into our first office in the Ipswich CBD (will post photos once the signage is up!) It's been an absolute whirlwind - and we couldn't have done any of it without our awesome clients, and the support of many others in the community that believe in our mission. And we're only just getting started. To all of you, thank you ??

Talk #Cybersecurity to a room full of business owners without putting them to sleep? CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! Last Wednesday Martin von Stein presented to the Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce QLD Business After Hours event.

They even got some killer questions at the end! We are proud to report a 100% survival rate - of around 50 attendees, nobody died of boredom!! ?? Thank you to Leila Stewart for organising (at the same time as preparing for her wedding, no less!), and to Matthew Taylor-Farrington from Purple Bunny Marketing Pty Ltd for the happy snap.
