Cybersecurity for financial services
Cube Cyber secures Australian financial services organisations, superannuation funds, credit unions, mutuals and financial institutions carrying member data at scale under continuous regulatory obligation. Our engagements in the sector include security architecture and uplift for some of Australia's largest financial organisations, delivered in environments where the regulator's expectations and members' trust are both non-negotiable.

The sector's security reality
How we help
We don't provide a generic package. We adapt established cybersecurity disciplines to the realities of this environment.
Security architecture for regulated environments
Design and delivery of network, cloud and identity security architecture, including data centre and campus network security for major financial institutions, built to contain incidents and evidence control.
APRA-aligned governance
CPS 234 capability assessment, control frameworks and board reporting, plus ISO 27001 programs and Essential Eight uplift, one body of evidence serving the regulator, the auditor and the board.
Independent testing and validation
Penetration testing, control validation and red team exercises that provide the systematic control testing CPS 234 expects, findings prioritised by real business risk.
24/7 monitoring and response
Australian SOC monitoring, MDR with pre-agreed response authority, and incident readiness with CPS 234 notification pathways mapped in advance, data kept onshore.
Virtual CISO and security leadership
Senior security leadership for institutions that carry regulatory accountability but not executive-scale security headcount, formally recognised in governance where required.
Obligations & frameworks
We work daily with the sector's obligations: APRA CPS 234 for information security capability, testing and notification, and the operational risk expectations around it, the Privacy Act and Notifiable Data Breaches scheme, the ASD Essential Eight and ISM, and ISO 27001 as the certifiable backbone that ties them together. Where institutions are covered by SOCI obligations, those pathways are integrated rather than parallel.
Why financial organisations choose Cube Cyber
Delivery in regulated environments
Security architecture and uplift for some of Australia's largest financial organisations, engagements where segmentation, member data protection and regulatory posture were the measures of success.
Evidence as a first-class output
Everything we deliver, architecture, testing, monitoring, response, is built to be evidenced, because in this sector a control that cannot be demonstrated might as well not exist.
Depth without the delivery pyramid
Senior practitioners scope and deliver the work, and cybersecurity is our entire business, ten years of it, which is the assurance conversation your board and regulator actually want to have.
Frequently asked questions
Maintained information security capability commensurate with your threats, clearly assigned roles, controls tested systematically by appropriately skilled reviewers, and incident notification to APRA within tight timeframes. In practice it demands evidence: that controls exist, that they are tested, and that response works, which is precisely the evidence our assessment, testing and readiness services generate.
Yes, information assets managed by related and third parties are explicitly in scope, and the accountability stays with you. We assess third-party control assurance, build the contractual and testing frameworks around providers, and include third-party scenarios in incident exercises, because the breach that arrives through your administrator is still your notification.
That is the standard arrangement. We add depth to lean internal teams, architecture, testing, 24/7 coverage, rather than replacing them, and our findings are structured for internal audit and external assurance consumption. Independence is preserved where it matters: testing and validation of controls we operate is reported to you, not just by us.
Our sector work includes network security architecture across data centre and campus environments and security uplift programs for some of Australia's largest financial organisations, superannuation funds, credit unions and mutuals among them, engagements where segmentation, member data protection and regulatory posture were the measures of success.
Yes, sized properly. The obligations do not scale down with headcount, but the delivery model can: a vCISO for leadership, managed monitoring for coverage, and testing on a proportionate cadence give a small institution genuine capability without enterprise cost. We work from small business through to enterprise, and mutuals are a natural fit for exactly that model.
Fast enough only if the pathway exists in advance, CPS 234's notification window is measured in hours for material incidents, and the assessment behind it needs facts. Our readiness work maps the decision tree, drafts the templates and rehearses the call, and our investigation practice establishes scope at the certainty APRA notification requires.
