Partner Network

The Biz Secure Online Partner Network

A growing network of Australian cyber security, IT, compliance and technology professionals.

IT security and compliance cover more ground than any one firm can. Our network brings together independent professionals across cyber security, governance, risk and compliance, and the technology and data work that underpins them, so organisations can find the right expertise for the problem in front of them. Our network is Australia-based today, with other regions to follow.

Meet our members

Members are independent professionals and businesses. Each operates on their own account and provides their own services.

Franco Cima

Franco Cima

Head of Growth | AI Automation and Enablement

Independent consultant · Gold Coast, QLD

JJ Purton Jones

JJ Purton Jones

Digital Strategist

Wave Digital Design · Gold Coast, QLD

Most small business trouble starts somewhere unglamorous: an unpatched plugin, a shared admin login, a site nobody has backed up in years. JJ builds WordPress websites for service-based businesses and then keeps them maintained: updates, backups, hardened logins and monitoring, so the website isn’t the gap in an otherwise tidy setup.

Business & professional services

Professionals outside security and IT whose work supports the businesses we serve. This group is by invitation.

Kingsley Colley

Kingsley Colley

Owner, Director

Tomorrow is Not Today · Gold Coast to Sunshine Coast, QLD

Having had success in entertainment, business and non-profit both in Australia and overseas, and with a beautiful family, all of a sudden everything collapsed. I rebuilt through habits, routines and thought patterns, and got my physical and mental health sorted. The programs and books I created since help others find clarity and purpose, personally and professionally.

Join the network

The network is open to anyone working professionally in cyber security, IT or compliance, and the technology and data disciplines that support them. No fee, and no requirement to use or promote our products.

We’re building this as a working professional community rather than a directory that sits still, including regular in-person meetups on the Gold Coast and Brisbane.

Meet people in person

Face-to-face meetups for people working in security and IT compliance. It’s the part that’s hard to do online, and the reason this network exists rather than another list.

Be findable

A profile on this page with your specialisms, your business and a link to your site, in front of organisations actively looking for help.

No cost, no catch

No membership fee, no products you have to sell, no exclusivity. Join because the network is useful, stay for the same reason.
