Security leadership.
Without the suit.

You don't need a full-time CISO.

You need someone who has done it before, tells it straight, and gets it finished.

Coastal Cyber provides senior, independent cyber security advisory to mid-market businesses across Southeast Queensland - and nationally, when the work calls for it.

Your board is asking questions you can't confidently answer.

Your cyber insurer wants evidence of a security program. APRA, OAIC, or the ACSC has your sector in its sights. You have a gap assessment from three years ago and a risk register nobody updates.

You are not looking for a team of consultants in matching polo shirts. You are looking for someone senior enough to give you a straight answer and experienced enough to be right.

Why Coastal Cyber

Senior-led. Every engagement.

Coastal Cyber engagements are led by practitioners with genuine depth - not junior consultants learning on your dime. The work is scoped, delivered, and accountable to a senior level.

Independent. Always.

We don't sell tooling. We don't manage your infrastructure. We have no product to push. Our advice reflects your risk, not our revenue model.

Practical, not theatrical.

We don't build frameworks as monuments to complexity. We build programs that work, that your team can maintain, and that satisfy your board, your insurer, and your regulator.

Three engagement models.

Essentials, Standard vCISO, and Embedded vCISO - each scoped to where you are and what you need. Projects are available for specific deliverables: gap analyses, risk registers, policy suites, framework assessments.

Pricing is based on scope and engagement model.
