Case Study:
State Government Agency – Cybersecurity Maturity Uplift
109
Client Organisation
The client is a state-owned agency managing critical commercial and passenger operations across multiple sites. As an operator of essential infrastructure, the organisation faces heightened cybersecurity risks. Protecting operational systems and sensitive data is central to maintaining resilience and public trust. The agency recognised the need to strengthen its cybersecurity posture, ensure compliance with best-practice frameworks, and embed sustainable internal practices to meet regulatory and operational requirements.
Project Overview
The agency sought to uplift its security maturity against the Essential Eight and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. Existing practices required greater structure, accountability, and alignment to modern risk management approaches. A roadmap was needed to assess vulnerabilities, assign responsibilities, and sequence initiatives across multiple business units. The challenge lay in creating a scalable program that addressed both immediate compliance obligations and longer-term capability building, without disrupting mission-critical operations.
Sedha's Role
Sedha Consulting provided strategic advisory and technical expertise to design a practical pathway for uplift. Detailed work packages were developed to define initiatives, timelines, milestones, and accountable owners. Sedha produced risk profiles to prioritise actions and direct resources to areas of highest impact. Governance and reporting structures were established to monitor progress, support decision-making, and enable executive oversight. Sedha engaged directly with business unit leaders to confirm ownership, identify dependencies, and sequence initiatives in a realistic manner. Delivery was consultative and flexible, ensuring alignment with operational constraints and maintaining momentum.
Results
The engagement delivered a clear and actionable roadmap, enabling systematic progress against the Essential Eight and NIST CSF. The agency improved compliance and reduced risk exposure across critical systems and data. Internal capability was strengthened, with business units better equipped to manage and sustain cybersecurity practices. The structured approach provided management with visibility, confidence in governance, and assurance that cybersecurity uplift was being delivered in a controlled and measurable way.
