Cyber Security & IT Engineering Services

Secure. Compliant. Mission-Ready.

Calexi delivers high-assurance IT and cyber security services tailored to Defence, government, and critical infrastructure. Our consultants combine technical depth with real-world operational experience to design, harden, and remediate systems that stand up to scrutiny — from accreditation audits to live adversaries.

Our services are delivered nationally, with dedicated support from our Canberra cyber security specialists for organisations operating in the ACT and surrounding regions.

🛡️DISP Essential Eight (ML2) as a Service

Outcome-led Essential Eight Maturity Level 2 for Defence SMEs.
Delivered as a managed service, not a one-off assessment.

We help Defence industry and regulated SMEs achieve and maintain Essential Eight Maturity Level 2 without building enterprise security capability in-house. Our approach is transparent, Defence-aligned, and designed to scale for small teams while remaining audit-ready at all times.

Key capabilities

  • Essential Eight ML2 delivered as an operational service
  • Identity, endpoint, and configuration hardening
  • Centralised logging, monitoring, and evidence generation
  • DISP-aligned documentation and assessor-ready evidence packs

🔐 Cyber Security

Hardened systems that meet compliance and withstand attack.
From Essential Eight uplift through to secure-by-design architecture, we deliver practical solutions that reduce risk without adding unnecessary overhead. Our consultants are cleared, accredited, and experienced in uplifting environments to ISM, PSPF, DISP and international standards.

  • Risk assessments and secure architecture
  • Vulnerability detection and remediation
  • Accreditation and compliance support
  • Incident response readiness

⚙️ IT Engineering

Build systems that pass accreditation the first time.
We engineer IT environments that are reliable, secure, and fit-for-purpose. Whether modernising networks, migrating workloads, or integrating Defence-grade systems, we balance compliance with operational performance.

  • Secure network and server design
  • Cloud and on-prem integration
  • Compliance-ready builds (ISM, PSPF, DSPF, Essential 8, ISO27001)
  • Full lifecycle engineering: assess → design → implement → assure

🏭 Operational Technology (OT) Security

Protect the systems that keep the lights on.
Operational Technology (OT) environments demand specialised protection. We help critical infrastructure operators secure SCADA, industrial controls, and field systems against disruption and cyber threats — without impacting reliability or safety.

  • Risk analysis for OT and SCADA
  • Network segmentation and isolation
  • Threat detection and monitoring
  • Compliance with SOCI, ISM, and industry standards

Our Method: Continuous Improvement

Every Calexi engagement follows a structured, repeatable cycle — Assess, Design, Implement, Assure & Evolve — ensuring systems remain secure, compliant, and mission-ready over time.
