IT audits in accounting practices have a timing problem. May lands during BAS crunch. August runs into October deadlines. January, the principal hasn't recovered. October is the one window where findings can be reviewed and acted on. $990 plus GST, two days on-site. ciotech.com.au/it-audit

July and August run hard for medical practices. October is different. The workload has eased, the team has capacity, and there's a realistic window before the summer holiday period and the next accreditation cycle. That combination is rarer than it sounds. ciotech.com.au/it-audit

Every Sydney law firm runs at full pace through EOFY. The right window for an IT audit is after the July crunch, when there are months of runway before the next settlement season peak. October is that window. $990 plus GST, fixed price, two days on-site. ciotech.com.au/it-audit

Tax season runs at full pace through October. Post-EOFY, the workload eases and there's enough runway before Christmas to act on IT findings. Most Sydney practices run their annual review in this stretch. $990 plus GST, two days on-site.

Three checks under 20 minutes that surface the most common ML1 gaps in medical practices. Confirm MFA is active on Best Practice, Medicare Online, and your pathology portal logins, not just on email. Pull the admin list in Best Practice or Medical Director and remove any accounts for ex-staff. Check patching on clinical workstations: anything over 30 days behind is an ML1 gap.

Three checks under 20 minutes that surface the most common ML1 gaps in Sydney law firms. Confirm MFA is active on your trust accounting software, not just Microsoft 365. Pull the admin list in your practice management system and remove any accounts for ex-staff. Check patching status on partner and associate laptops: anything over 30 days behind is an ML1 gap.

Three checks under 20 minutes that surface the most common ML1 gaps in accounting practices. Confirm MFA is active on the ATO portal, Xero, and MYOB, not just on Microsoft 365. Pull the admin list in your practice software and remove any ex-staff. Check Office Trust Center: macros on by default is an ML1 gap. These three checks won't close every gap, but they'll show you where the obvious ones sit. For the full picture: ciotech.com.au/it-maturity

Partial MFA is one of the most consistent findings across Sydney law firm assessments. Microsoft 365 is locked down. Trust accounting software, practice management, and document signing platforms often have no MFA at all. The firm considers itself covered because email is protected. The systems handling client funds and sensitive matters aren't subject to the same scrutiny. See where your firm actually sits: ciotech.com.au/it-maturity

Application control never configured. Macros on by default. MFA missing on the ATO portal, Xero, MYOB, and the backup tool. These aren't unusual findings. They're the standard state in a practice where IT was set up to function and meet ATO digital requirements, not to meet the Essential Eight framework. The fix is usually straightforward once the gaps are known. See where yours sit: ciotech.com.au/it-maturity

A 23% year-on-year rise in cybercrime reports across Australia, with the legal sector in the top three most targeted industries. Most firms below the Essential Eight ML1 baseline are missing the same 3 to 5 controls. Finding out which ones apply to your firm takes 5 minutes and produces a written report. No sales call attached. ciotech.com.au/it-maturity
