SMB1001 Gold Certification

At Bekkers, cyber security isn’t an add-on. It’s built into the way we support our clients, protect their environments, and deliver trusted managed IT services.

Our Gold (SMB1001:2025 Level 3) certification demonstrates our commitment to following recognised cyber security best practices designed specifically for Australian small and medium-sized businesses. It provides our clients with added confidence that security, governance and continuous improvement remain at the centre of everything we do.

What is SMB1001 Gold Certification?

SMB1001 is an Australian cyber security certification framework created specifically for small and medium businesses. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, it provides a practical pathway for organisations to strengthen their cyber security through progressive levels of maturity.

Gold (Level 3) represents organisations that have implemented a broad range of technical controls, documented security processes, and proactive practices across areas such as access management, backup and recovery, incident response, and staff awareness.

For our clients, it means you’re partnering with an IT provider that has invested in recognised cyber security practices and is committed to continually improving the way we protect people, systems and information.
