Continuous control status
Automated collection of control evidence across identity, endpoints, patching, and backup — so maturity is a live number rather than an annual guess.
DingoSec Platform
Essential Eight Compliance Automation
Designed for real-world Essential Eight programs: continuous control status, evidence you can hand to an auditor, and a roadmap your team can actually work through.
Maturity level tracking
Track each of the eight controls against ACSC maturity levels 1 to 3, with a clear view of what moving up a level actually requires.
Evidence & audit artefacts
Exportable reports for auditors, cyber insurers, and customer due diligence questionnaires — produced from real configuration, not a survey.
Roadmap & prioritisation
Findings are ordered by exploitability and effort, so the next three things to fix are always obvious.
Board-level reporting
Summaries a non-technical director can read in two minutes and act on, alongside the technical detail your engineers need.
Drift detection
Controls decay. The platform flags regressions when a policy is loosened or a baseline slips out of alignment.
Why automate Essential Eight?
Most SMB Essential Eight programs stall for the same reason: the assessment is a point-in-time spreadsheet, and by the time remediation finishes the spreadsheet is stale. Nobody trusts the number, so nobody acts on it.
Continuous collection changes that. Control status is measured from the actual environment on an ongoing basis, so the maturity figure stays honest and regressions surface within days rather than at the next audit.
The platform is optional. Plenty of clients get value from a one-off assessment and a roadmap — automation is for organisations that need to hold a level, not just reach it once.
