Cybersecurity is no longer optional for organisations managing precious digital archives.
At Preferred Media, we have achieved full compliance with the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) Essential Eight maturity model, delivering government-grade protection across all customer environments.
This milestone ensures that digital archives are not only reliably preserved but are actively defended against evolving cyber threats.
Digital archives face increasing risks from:
- Opportunistic attacks
- Virus Injection and Cryptolocking
- Credential theft
- System breaches
Without robust cybersecurity measures, organisations risk data loss, reputational damage, and compliance failures. The Essential Eight framework sets the benchmark for mitigating these threats, and achieving compliance requires rigorous implementation of security controls.
Preferred Media’s commitment to the Essential Eight maturity model confirms the implementation of key baseline controls designed to:
- Defend Against Cyber Threats: Reduce exposure to opportunistic attacks
- Safeguard Credentials & Access: Protect user identities and system integrity
- Secure Content Across Platforms: Ensure archives remain resilient to external threats, and uncompromised
Achieving Essential 8 compliance reflects our commitment to delivering secure, sustainable digital preservation for every client.
Benefits
- Government-Grade Security: Independently certified compliance with Australia’s leading cybersecurity framework
- Enhanced Trust: Assurance that archives are actively protected against evolving threats
- Operational Resilience: Strengthened security posture without compromising accessibility or preservation integrity
