Security isn’t a project. It’s an ongoing discipline.

The biggest challenge in cybersecurity isn’t finding vulnerabilities – it’s keeping on top of them. That’s where most approaches fall short.

At Com-X, we work alongside your team to:

• Maintain continuous visibility across your environment
• Prioritise what actually matters
• Align remediation with frameworks like ACSC Essential Eight

It’s not just about identifying risk – it’s about reducing it over time.

To help organisations assess where they stand today, Com-X is offering either:

• A free Essential 8 Rapid Assessment

OR

• A free Pe*******on Test on a key or critical component of your internet-facing infrastructure.

AI adoption, cybersecurity and the future of IT were front and centre at Dicker Data’s TechX keynote and exhibition at ICC Sydney on Thursday.

Com-X's Nick Cross, Stephen Laird and Sarah O'Donnell attended to connect with the technology community, especially CXANZ and Progress ShareFile, and hear perspectives on the challenges and opportunities shaping the industry.

A standout was Omdia analyst Mark Iles, who shared some thought-provoking insights on where the industry is heading.

A couple of takeaways that resonated with Com-X:

🔹 Cybersecurity requires a connected approach. Cyber threats don't stop at individual security boundaries. Attacks can move from email to identity, cloud and backup, making it critical to understand how these environments connect and where vulnerabilities exist. This is central to Com-X's consultative approach – helping businesses look beyond individual tools to build a more cohesive, risk-based security strategy.

🔹 AI agents are creating new governance challenges. One example really stuck: a new employee arriving with 16 AI agents they'd built themselves. Who owns, manages and secures those agents when that person leaves? As AI adoption accelerates, businesses need to consider not just what the technology can do, but how it's governed, secured and managed.

The broader message? Keeping pace with technology isn't just about adopting the latest tools. It's about making informed decisions, managing risk and ensuring technology delivers meaningful business outcomes.

That's where the right technology partner makes a difference.

Thanks to Dicker Data for bringing the industry together and creating an opportunity to share ideas and perspectives.

AI is accelerating cyber threats. Is your IT support keeping up?

As AI changes the way cyberattacks are carried out, organisations have less time to identify risks, make decisions and respond effectively.

Having the right security tools is essential. But how quickly you can act when something goes wrong matters just as much.

A mature managed services partner helps you move beyond reactive IT support to a more proactive, risk-based approach – prioritising business-critical systems, making better use of existing technology and strengthening your organisation’s ability to respond.

Because effective cybersecurity isn’t just about protecting your technology. It’s about protecting your business.

The digital workspace has changed. Has your endpoint strategy?

The browser is becoming the computer. AI is reshaping security. And rising hardware costs are forcing organisations to rethink how they deliver a secure, productive digital workspace.

But the answer isn't always more technology.

In our latest Com-X Connects interview, we explore insights from Philipp Benkler, VP & GM of Citrix UniconOS, and Wayne Baker, Solutions Architect at CXANZ.

Together, they explore why organisations need to rethink their approach to endpoint strategy, from securing AI adoption and simplifying the employee experience to extending device lifecycles and getting more value from existing technology investments.

The opportunity? Build a digital workspace that works for your people, protects your business and supports your long-term goals – without adding unnecessary complexity.

If most of your work happens in a browser, what does your endpoint really need to do?

Many employees spend most of their working day in web applications and SaaS platforms. Yet organisations often continue to manage endpoints as though every user needs a full traditional desktop environment.

That raises an important question: are you matching your endpoint strategy to how people actually work?

AI can't unlock value from data you can't find, understand or control.

Before introducing AI into your organisation, ask:

→ Where does our critical data live?
→ Who has access to it?
→ Is it structured and usable?
→ What information is sensitive?
→ Are permissions still appropriate?
→ What needs to be addressed before AI gets involved?

For many organisations, this is where the real AI readiness journey begins.

Know your data. Then know what's possible.

What if your next digital workspace decision shouldn’t start with the licence price?

When an Australian legal organisation approached a major technology renewal, they wanted to understand whether moving from Citrix to Microsoft Azure with third-party management would actually deliver better value.

Com-X took an impartial approach – looking beyond headline licensing costs to compare infrastructure, security, management, user experience, resilience, persona requirements and future flexibility.

The result? A clearer picture of what each option could deliver, what it would really cost to operate, and where existing investments could continue to create value.

Before you make your next digital workspace decision, look beyond the renewal.
