Who we are
Aegis Eight is an Australian company building automated Essential Eight assessment and continuous monitoring for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace tenants.
Our mission
Make Essential Eight posture visible, current, and provable for every Australian organisation running Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace — without spreadsheets, guesswork, or one-off audits that expire the moment they are delivered.
Why we built this
Aegis Eight was built because configuration drift, insurer questionnaires, and tender evidence all ask the same question: can you prove your cloud security posture is still sound today — not at last year's audit? Manual assessments answer that once. We built continuous monitoring that answers it every day.
Configuration drift is silent
A new Global Admin without MFA or a weakened Conditional Access policy can drop your maturity overnight — long before the next manual review.
Insurance and tenders want current evidence
Cyber insurers and procurement increasingly ask for timestamped Essential Eight proof, not a spreadsheet from last quarter.
Point-in-time audits expire immediately
ASD and IRAP-style assessors expect ongoing posture visibility. A one-off scan is a snapshot; monitoring catches what changes after it.
How we work
- Read-only by design — no write surface, no agents, no access to email or files.
- Evidence over assertion — API-derived findings are timestamped and hash-anchored.
- Honest scope — assessment support for Essential Eight, not a certification claim.
- Australian data residency — customer assessment data hosted in Australia (Sydney).
- Transparent permissions — every scope is listed before you grant access.
Trust and partnerships
- Australian-owned and operated.
- Microsoft Entra multi-tenant app registration with read-only Graph permissions.
- Google Workspace integration via domain-wide delegation (read-only Admin SDK scopes).
- Microsoft verified publisher programme — in progress (blue badge when approved).
