Website security vulnerability and health monitoring made for SME businesses
American small businesses face the same cybersecurity risks as large enterprises, but without the budget or specialist staff to manage them. Most available tools were designed for enterprise teams with dedicated security personnel.
Biz Secure Online is an independent alternative built outside the US SaaS mainstream. We provide continuous website vulnerability monitoring that small businesses can set up in minutes. All hosting, infrastructure and data storage is in Australia — a deliberate choice, not an afterthought.
Our Story
Biz Secure Online began as an idea in the Netherlands. Andrew and Martin worked together at spriteCloud, a Dutch software testing consultancy Andrew co‑founded, where he led the Security and Performance group. They often heard from small businesses needing an affordable way to monitor website vulnerabilities and essential health. The available options were either expensive enterprise tools or complex open‑source software, unsuitable for tight budgets or non‑technical owners. Seeing a clear gap, they decided to fill it. Biz Secure Online is the product they always wanted to build. Cybersecurity made less intimidating, and website vulnerability testing so simple even your grandmother could use it.
Why We Started
After years working in consultancy and technology roles, our team saw a widespread problem; business owners, freelance developers and SME website agencies were expected to keep modern business websites secure but lacked an easy solution to test and continuously monitor for vulnerabilities and site health. Biz Secure Online was created to close that gap with a platform built on ease of use and reliability, but free from aggressive upsells for more expensive products SMEs didn't need.
